Hi @Cullinan Why do some people provide bank statement for sufficient balance when applying for ILR via 5 year tier 2 dependents ? I am going with following documents: is it fine ?

Hi quick question on Cohabitation docs - do we have to add marriage certificate in the same doc with all the cohab letters or marriage certificate goes separate ? also, due to marriage certificate made in standard format - me & my spouse names are [Name] [Father Name] [Surname] whereas in all th...

What did you decide standard or SP? we agree with your view that you explained for the timeline so decided to go for standard. However, one thing I noticed on the timeline thread, not many posts on Set O standard :?: I understand this might be due to - 1) more ppl going for priority 2) ppl do not t...

Standard

Hi @Cullinan, Is there any requirement for passport validity requirement at the time of ILR application? My son’s passport will expire in Jul 2021 & we are applying for his ILR on 28 Apr. So at the time of ILR application passport is only valid for 2.5 months. Will that be ok? Thanksa lot again.

Just trying to understand current cost benefit of priority/super priority. If I book standard, I might have to pay for biometric depending on when/where I get appointment it could be upto £200. However, if I book priority/super priority appointment, does the additional £500/£800 gives quicker & ...

Thanks a lot @Cullinan for detailed response. Makes our life so much easier :) I have following doubts for my spouse and kids ILR application (from T2G Dep). Can you please check whenever convenient to you: 1) Do we need school letter for ILR application of our 10yr old son? 2) Do we need 3 consent ...

Thanks Thanks Thanks a lot @Cullinan

One question regarding point 3:
If my son registers for same time as I apply for naturalisation, I will fill form AN, which form will we have to fill for him ?
Note that he was not born in UK.

Thanks a lot again & million times..

Hi @CULLINAN, Asking my BC questions in this sub-forum as requested. Quick background to remind you my status: Myself: 5yr T2G -> ILR (Oct 20) Spouse: 5yr T2G dep -> applying ILR in May 10yr old Son born out of UK: applying ILR along with my Spouse in May Q1: I will be eligible to apply for naturali...

Thanks a lot CR001

Just to confirm, my son (born outside UK) and husband can both apply for ILR together (on 5year Tier 2 dependent route) ?
ie do not have to first get husband's ILR and then apply for son's , both can apply together ?

Hi @CULLINAN, Gurus, I have some questions for my ILR application of my husband and son. 1) As you know I got ILR on 6 Oct 20, does it mean on 7 Oct 21 I can apply for naturalisation ? 2) My husband & son who were my dependent on tier 2 general are applying their ILR on 28 Apr 21. Can you confir...

Hi I just read that if child ILR BRP is not returned within 5 days there is a penalty of £1000, is that still strict? We went to our Home country for an emergency in December (haven't received child registration until that time) and then due to UK lockdown & flights cancellation could only come ...

Hiii Gurus,
Do we need to send 1) copy of application form and 2) cover letter when applying for kids first passport post registration ?

Can someone please advise. We are due ILR for our 10yr old son in Apr-21 via 5yr T2G dependent route (I already got ILR last year) His current non-UK passport expires in Jun-21. I am worried that if I apply for passport renewal now and it doesnt come back by Apr, his ILR application will be delayed....

Hi all, respected Gurus, Mods, First of all, sincere apologies, I take this forum rules to the highest regard but unfortunately my previous thread is showing locked so have to start a new thread. We are due for ILR for our 10yr old son in Apr-21 via 5yr T2G dependent route (I already got ILR last ye...

Thanks a lot @Cullinan!!!!! As you have might have done in your case, can you please help me what original documents that you have to send along for Child's first BRitish passport ? I searched through the forum and internet but there are several different answers/opinions. As we have to send origina...

Thanks a lot CR001! My daughter has T2G dependent BRP until May2021 and the MN1 application is in progress. I might have to travel out of UK and want to understand till what stage can she use Foreign passport & T2G dependent BRP for travelling ? 1) before receiving British Citizenship certificat...

Hi Gurus, Senior members, couple of questions: - How do we get Certificate? Is it by email or post or we have to go to council office to collect? - After receiving certificate how soon can we apply for first British passport for the child? - What documents are required for first British passport for...

2) You need documents from 3/4 sources EVERY quarter. You are adding only 1 source every quarter. So add more. If you do not have more in joint names, add in individual names but same address. Also keep ALL cohabitation documents well organised and in ONE PDF in date order (suggestion). 3) Add more...

Thanks a ton Cullinan and CR00! I am wondering there is no requirement for providing marriage certificate, or (as some ppl told me in past) to add some holiday pics or emails showing co-habitation? 8) 2) I am planning this for the cohab docs that are in both names (myself and my spouse), one documen...

Thanks a lot Cullinan! I filled a sample form for my husband and son (Set O for T2G Dependent to ILR). The document checklist only mentions these documents only (surprised so few documents required!) Spouse Passport & BRP Son Passport & BRP Spouse English Test Consent Letter for verification...

Hii , I have some time before applying for dependents but anyhow starting the work. I have some questions if you can please help with some questions on application form Set O for dependent partner: 1) Main applicant VAF or GWF number? What is that and how can I find it please. 2) Main applicant BRP ...

remarkable @Cullinan !
Thank you so much..

which form for dependent ILR btw - set O for both adult and child dependent ?

Welcome. Its a simpler application and will be much quicker too (even if SP does not resume by then OR you wish to go standard - PBS dependents on standard processing when main Tier 2 has ILR, normally is pretty quick). The checklist will tell you any documents needed for child but since he is only...

Hii Gurus, Mods, Senior Members, I have got my ILR BRP & want to thank you all ! As next steps, I will work on ILR application for my dependents (partner & non-UK born son) and have some questions: 1) Shall I start a new thread for them or continue in my current thread only ? 2) What are th...
