Thanks for replying. 1. Do you know where I can find information on the ...

How do I transfer received ILR info on paper to passport?

With my parents at the time not being experienced in the application process, my brother received his ILR BEFORE getting his passport from his country of origin. As a result it was on a piece of paper which was then stapled to his passport. How does he go about transferring this information directly...

I can only share my experiences: My parents were over stayers in this country for nearly 25 years and we applied for ILR under the 14 year rule as a family (I was born here). It took 3 years for a response from the Home Office (HO), which was a rejection of our application. We appealed this in July ...

Hi rajj, By "gaps" if you're referring to anytime being spent outside of the country the answer is "no", I've never left the UK. Nor do I have a criminal record. I've sent multiple letters to them through my MP and have had responses but it's clearly not doing much to help my sit...

Hi, the answer would be no I'm afraid. Her photos were collected and signed for on the 1st of October (according to Royal Mail's delivery tracking service), so that would be at least 6 weeks. Out of interest how long prior to receiving your letter did you send your application forms off? My mum sent...

Just posting an update, hopefully it'll help relieve me off some of my stress. We decided to continue through the ILR route and contacted our MP to give the HO a kick up the backside. Before the end of August I received the usual "sorry" letter and that it'll be dealt with quickly. I was t...

Just a few more questions guys, My mum worries that I may not be able to make two appliations at the same time (i.e. a new application for British Citizenship along with the current ILR application which is already in the system). She fears this may complicate things. Can I still apply for British C...

Thanks again for the responses. I spoke with my mum and it seems that our solicitor clearly doesn't know what he is doing. Mr Woolas had given us a direct address to send our application to and that we should contact our solicitor to sort out which form to send off (so for that I guess I did -unders...

Firstly, thank you for the responses. This news upsets me very much. Why had I been advised to apply for ILR and not for British citizenship? Mr. Woolas had beed told EVERYTHING about our situation and never once mentioned that I was applicable for this, nor did our solicitors. My brother applied fo...
