Hi sushdmehta,
In my case I have a business trip of 7 days and don't want this to be discounted as i'm well within 180 days. Since I have mentioned this trip in the absences as business trip should I still include a letter from employer to prove it?
thanks,
Mrs Barua
Hi sushdmehta, Yes I do qualify, we missed out the fact that the points for age should be of that when we claimed and not the current age. So I still get the same 75 points as nothing has changed in the circumstances. thanks, Mrs Barua P.S. I am amazed at your energy in helping out lots of people in...
Hi greggio,

No you need your visa to cover 5 yrs and upto 3 months late entry is permitted if you satisfy all the other conditions. Since the guidance doc says it is a discretion should I not risk it and apply after 10 days(within 18 days of expiry) to make it 5 years please? I came in 10 days after my entry c...
Hello All,
I got my hsmp on 17th Oct 2007 and entered uk 2 weeks after.
Now I am applying for ILR.
Should I have been here in UK on the date exactly 5 years before from the date my application is received to qualify?
thanks,
Mrs Barua
Hi All, Me and my wife are both in UK since 2005 and I got my citizenship a year ago. But didn't switch my wife's Tier1(expiring in oct 2012) as we thought she can get her ILR on her own at the end of 5 years in 0ct 2012, but now on the points basis she does not qualify. She only gets 70 points. She...
Hello members, Only I went for citizenship an year ago.

Can't find any of the listed refrees who can say that they know me from 3 years.
Pls advise.

Thanks to all for your reply. Can i apply for citizenship in future if I want to? is there any rule which says you have to apply as soon as you qualify i.e. after 1 yr of ILR. Also are there any benefits of citizenship other than one can travel within uk and to us without visa. My nationality is Ind...
Hi All, I have recently qualified to apply for citizenship. But Can i remain on ILR for a few more years(say another 5 years) and then apply if i want to?

Hello All, I got my ILR on 26th Feb(5 years WP). At that time my spouse was on Tier1(Will qualify for ILR on Sep 2011 on her own), so to get her ILR I had to either a) Get her visa switched to my dependant and then after 2 qualifying years apply for ILR which would be on Feb 2012. As she would have ...
Thanks Krazydude. What i meant is the work permit letter we get initially not the passport ofcourse. I had to sent that to them, they said they have to legally inform that once a person leaves the comp who has work permit. As you said all that is checked while PR and shouldn't be required. But just ...

But my Indian employer is asking me to submit the original Work Permit they had got processed. I checked the form AN and the guide and nowhere it asked for the work permit document. How...
