Interesting. It does say that discretion can be exercised if you apply up to 9 days (less than 10 days) early. The ILR delay point is interesting and can be quite useful for some people. But it says discretion "can" be exercised rather than "must" :) The copy pasted text has lost...

Hi, Probably this was asked before, I am sorry if that is the case. My baby's MN1 application is in progress and we are waiting for the decision. My wife needs to visit her home country for health reasons and planning to take the baby with her. I will stay in the UK during this period and was plann...

BRP card must me returned within 5 days of attending British citizenship ceremony otherwise you can end up paying £1000 fine. I have paid this fine 3 weeks ago for not following rule hence please be careful. Could you please copy and paste the wording of the fine? It should be easy if this was sent...

Hi Guys, Here is an update - I got an offer for a job similar to the one I was working and a lead role and with a 30% hike, the firm who gave me the job is suggesting I apply for my ILR, with my current firm details of their SOC and stuff, stating I am serving my notice period until mid-August and ...

An update for anybody who stumbles upon this via a Google search. It is my fault I pushed for the sponsoring body to contact the home office and find out before trying out the application myself. They appear to have kindly done so and fed this back to us. Basically, there is a question in the applic...

My wife's CoS was issued for longer than 3 years by mistake (she does not need the 3 years as will be eligible for ILR in a year). The longer CoS duration will attract higher application fees (double). The sponsoring institution would now like to correct this by adding a sponsor note. This obviously...

For me, it is an oversight. The team that has done the application form and specific rules regarding the English exams has made errors. https://www.gov.uk/english-language/approved-english-language-qualifications According to this, I could have used my B1 qualification from 2017 in my ILR applicatio...

Another question please. During my ILR application - I was asked this question: Have you previously been granted leave to remain under Tier 2 (General) as a doctor, dentist, nurse or midwife, and passed an English Language assessment accepted by the relevant regulated professional body as a requirem...

Just filled out my form AN online and double checked it. It does ask one about pretty much everything. However, there is nothing in it that asks about whether you have any children. Have I missed something? My child was born here and was subsequently registered as a British citizen when I got my ILR...

After a year of having ILR, I know I will become eligible to apply for consideration of naturalization via form AN (I have less than 10 months left). My child was born in the UK last year, prior to me getting settled status. He is eligible for registration using MN1 now that I have my ILR. My questi...

Hi, my application for ILR has been successful today. I am working on the MN1 application for my UK born infant now that one of the parents is settled (myself). I think the nursery will certainly provide the required references. We are on very good terms with them and all the staff. However, I feel ...

To give you a bit of an update. My current sponsor letter did not contain a detailed absence history and only said that they were "not aware of any unauthorized leave" and that I was on sick leave and stated the date the leave started and said that the leave was "pay affecting". ...

Hi, I am about to submit my application. The application form is out of date. It does ask you whether you are on paternity or maternity leave (for salary purposes I am sure). However, that specific bit does not include sick leave so i answered no. Although I am pretty sure its just an outdated appli...

I have asked a solicitor online who said that it is fine if they issue a letter confirming my employment details and salary without eluding to all leaves being approved/or no unauthorized leave. They feel that I'm overthinking and it is true that there is probably a degree of overthinking. However, ...

I am going to further discuss this with my previous employer but it appears that I have unauthorized paid leave according to them of 3 weeks duration. I know there is a conflict with the combination of unauthorized and paid so I don't know how that happened. My understanding at the time was that thi...

Hi, Am I able to apply for ILR if I'm on half pay due to sick leave? Or should I defer it until I'm back to work on full pay? And if I can't apply on half pay - When I'm back to work on full pay, how many payslips of full pay do I need? Is it just a one month payslip of full pay before applying? Tha...

Hi, I just got leave for a year after applying for a skilled worker visa. However, my BRP has not arrived yet. Due to the nature of my job, I can only get assigned AL/holiday blocks and my AL starts in a few days. This cannot be changed due to on-call commitments. Now I haven't seen any family for m...

Bump

Bump.

I would be very grateful for some advice. Thank you.

I haven't actually yet. I have not even booked the appointment yet. It's just the skilled worker online application.

Hello, I have started a job in a hospital about a week ago after making an application for a health and care visa. Due to covid and pressures, we basically don't have to wait for the BRPs to be issued before starting. A CoS and proof of visa application is enough to start/establish right to work. I ...
