Re: Is it still worth applying for a Permanent Residence card?

Thank you Kamoe, I agree that the family will have acquired PR. The issue is that it is unclear whether the HO will issue a PR card if we apply now as it will technically not be valid after 31/12/2020. On the other hand the online application is still on the gov website, so it's very confusing.

Re: Is it still worth applying for a Permanent Residence card?

Hello Kamoe,

They have all been in the UK continuously since July 2013. Absences throughout have been no more than 6 months in any 12 months, apart from the last 12 months, where they have been away for up to 198 days.
This applies to all family members.

Re: Is it still worth applying for a Permanent Residence card?

Thank you both for your comments. I have a different scenario for another French national and would appreciate your thoughts on this. He's been in the UK since 2013 exercising Treaty Rights as a worker. He has a wife and children. Wife wasn't working & children have been at school, none of them ...

Re: Is it still worth applying for a Permanent Residence card?

Thank you for your response. The French national exercisedTreaty Rights from 2009 to 2014. So it would seem would qualify for historic PR. She left the UK late 2014 and returned in Sept 2017. She was working in France during that period of absence but returned regularly to the UK to visit. Since Sep...

Is it still worth applying for a Permanent Residence card?

Hi, This relates to a French national who can demonstrate 5 years continued residence from 2009 to 2014 exercising Treaty Rights. She then left the UK from for a couple of years, but not continuously. Would it make sense for her to apply for PR now and rely on it for a future citizenship application...

Re: PBS main applicant applying for ILR/ dependant applying for Entry Clearance

Apologies, I have a further question. The main applicant's T2 visa expires in February 2021. If the dependant spouse made an application now, she would be granted leave in line with her sponsor. Which means that either by the time she is granted EC she would have very little time on her visa or the ...

PBS main applicant applying for ILR/ dependant applying for Entry Clearance

Hi, Would appreciate your thoughts on this. A PBS under Tier 2 is eligible to apply for ILR. His wife would like to apply for EC as soon as possible. Would it be best for the Tier 2 main applicant to first apply & hopefully obtain ILR prior to his wife submitting an application for EC? I suppose...

Re: Personal loan as a source of funds Tier 1 Entrepreneur

Thank you for taking the time to respond, it's really appreciated. Do you think that the loan could be a problem in that "available money has to be free of sanctions" and a personal loan by definition would have some sanctions in that at the very least it has to be repaid by a certain date...

Re: Personal loan as a source of funds Tier 1 Entrepreneur

Hi, Thank you for your comments. Apologies for lack of clarity. This loan was not mentioned at the time of the application. At the initial application stage the applicant had all the relevant documents from a third party funder. He has not actually used the third party funds but had some personal fu...

Personal loan as a source of funds Tier 1 Entrepreneur

Hello, can an applicant rely on a personal loan as a source of funds towards the £200k investment? This would be invested in the business via a Director's loan.
For the initial application the applicant relied on third party funding.

Many thanks for your help
