Hi I am having ncs appointment tomorrow afternoon and need to clarify 1 point. Is sec 2 applicable to children born in the uk.As per guidance notes, it appears to be a requirement for kids born out of uk. But reading the application form on its own, it gives an impression that needs to fill in for u...

Hi All Thanks for all your response. I am planning to call them tomorrow and see when I can get my appointment. As the person on the phone insisted that only professionals listed on MN1 form can sign and they need to know the child personally,I was surprised by the limited professionals listed. Not ...

I'm filling my child's MN1 as well. I wrote my child's last name in 1.5 and first name in 1.6. How can 'other' names be first name.The guidance notes is bit confusing and the example given doesn't really match with the question in the section.But logically, there should be a first name mentioned an...

My daughter was born in UK and was on my dependant visa before I got the ILR. We didn't apply for her ILR because of advice received on this forum. Applied for her to be registered as british citizen and got approval without any problem. If child is born in UK they are entitled to british citizensh...

Yes you can claim child benefit when you claim 1st time child benefit HMRC might ask for original Home Office documents so I recomend you used NCS service in that case you have your original documents with you. Hi I checked brent council website for NCS service and it states to produce the Ilr for ...

Yes she is eligible to apply British citizenship certificate on MN1 form. Her expired leave doesnt effect her application. If you apply through NCS then you don't need to submit your original documents. NCS copied your documents attest it and send it to Home Office along with application. If you do...

No, it may be easier to get a NARIC statement of comparability and ELA. I am aware of NARIC SOC but it comes at a cost. I wanted to save some money as the reqd docs are available but it's just lack of clear instructions that confuse people and thought, if anyone is in similar situation can share th...

There is no mention in guidance notes of who can certify the certificate?. Are you aware of any?.

Amber_ wrote:Yes along with the degree certificate. Although, an ELA shouldn't be required if the degree is awarded 10 points for English Skills.

My concern is that the degree certificate is not in english and how can ukba recognise the certificate and language.

If the required points are awarded that should suffice B1 in addition to LIUK. Amber, Thanks for the response. If I submit only pbs summary sheet as an evidence for ELA, will ukba accept it? One would presume that the uni listed in pbs calc are evaluated and approved by ukba for ELA. Or should I ne...
