i thought the reason you get a BRP card now is that you don't have to have vignette on the passport. If you have your BRP which has your details in a chip/pin card then i cannot see any reason of refusal of entry.

also, have you reported your lost passport to police

you can apply for WTC/CTC regardless of your husband's immigration status.

when they gave me my documents back, including the letter, she said to me that ILR has been granted and that I should receive my BRP Card in 7/10 days. But when I read the letter it didn't say anything about grant of ILR on it. That letter is just a template, which is not properly aligned/justified ...

how much did you pay on top of ukba fee

yes to ur question and write the date when u got ur ulr and attach copies with the form

ok thanks Greenie.

or just email them , quick service even via email

i think you may have misunderstood my question. My wife has not got a BRP Card, the visa vignette is on her passport. I have got my ILR and as she has not completed 2 years in the UK so I need to extend her stay using FLR(M) under the rules before 9 July 2011. I never had a BRP either so just had on...

i know it gets destroyed after you get your citizenship.

i know it isn't but too risky business that is.

I might ring UKBA tomorrow and see what they say.

which branch did you go to. I went to the branch and they printed and stamped me one month statement straight away. He's talking about Santander... not HSBC... what I learn is he's trying to get statement from Santander... However in any case.. getting online statement signed & stamped is his r...

if you are applying for ILR, do you think they will check the tax history, or unless they smell something fishy, then they will go through the HMRC. i wonder what they check on the computer when you apply for ILR? have you got something to hide ??? If you are thinking of forging anything then I wou...

Hi, Filling the form, it says "Your partner’s current passport or travel document showing that he/she is present and settled in the UK. If you are unable to provide this, see Note 6 about other suitable documents. List any such documents below" I do not really want to send BRP Card away if...

which branch did you go to. I went to the branch and they printed and stamped me one month statement straight away. The only reason I think would be that the paper they have is half the size of A4 so if they start printing years worth of statements, that may take time. so i think its just they are l...

if the income is not declared so no tax paid so they don't have any records for it. so there will be a gap in tax periods records in HMRC, obviously.

i think they can get info off HMRC if they want.

you should have mentioned it earlier. its nearly thursday now. you need to chase them up big style ring them every day. you may get something out of them.

on another note, I have received my BRP today within 3 days.

whats the reason they gave you for being that late?

I was given my ILR last week after having been in the UK for 11 years.

When can I apply for my British Passport? Is it after a year of having ILR?

Yes a year after and another 900 quid as well.

i do not think the spelling will make any difference. I was under impression that CW will go through every single payslip and sum up all the slips to get gross himself but he only flipped one or two of them and said ok. he took all the copies so i wonder when they ask you to come back after an hour,...
