[iD] many thanks dear. I remember in those years (2003 & 2004) some officials, carrying UK Immigration badges, at the Dubai Airport used to stand at the flight gates to check people passports who were boarding to the UK from UAE. I was quite worried coz my wife's passport has all the entry date...

Thanks everyone. Now i am seeing some light at the end of the tunnel. If i can show evidence that the baby is living in uk then the baby is eligible for Registration as a British Citizen under Section 3(1) applications. I need to know what kind of evidence i can produce that the baby is living in u...

His birth was registered in the UK. Should we obtain a record of that and submit it with the passport application? They didn't require it - we spoke to a customer service person and explained his birth certificate. Thanks for this bit of information! If you can get a hold of a valid UK birth certif...

Hi there. I am a Tier4(student) dependent from India, living in UK now. I am expecting baby. I have discussed about my child citizenship with friends and relatives. The facts i have got is detailed below, if i get some help to clarify my knowledge that i have gathered so far will be a great help. 1...

everyone deserves an identity and a chance to belong to somewhere. Is the child supposed to just go on without a nationality?? without British citizenship she won't be able to attend British school etc surely Since when do you have to be British to go to a British school? So if a foreign family imm...

Hi All, As I dont meet the ILR criteria according to new rules & also my visa expires very soon, i wont have any option left if i dont get ILR other than leaving the country. I have consulted many solicitors, few among them have advised me to go for ILR & once they reject the case, they ask...

Hi, I applied for Tier 1 (general) 28th Feb, and got the refusal letter today :-( They have given all the points I claimed, but say I cannot switch because I am a student dependant (granted in 2005). Basically they are saying student dependant is not equal to Tier 4 Migrant, and so I cannot switch....

I assume employers are vary of going through this resident labour market test? Besides, considering that I have not been able to get a proper job in all these years, it's unlikely that I can secure one in the next four months. No other option? The success of RLM test really depends on the job you a...

UCAS points are for below degree level courses.

You can't go from a student visa to ILR (Settlement) without having lived in the UK for 10 years.

Therefore, I take it you are switching from student visa to spouse visa. You will need to remain on the spouse visa for 2 years to qualify for ILR.

show a birth certificate???

1 more year and then she can apply for ILR....

Hi Guys, I need some help.

My wife has been granted Tier 1 general from UK, now I am thinking to switch over my visa status by going India in 2 months. My question i...

You should know, there is a difference between a representative/advisor, a solicitor and a lawyer. I wouldn't go so far as to get hold of an (expensive) lawyer (yet). I would get a Level 3 OISC Registered Advisor. A Level 3 registered advisor can represent you at appeal hearings before an immigratio...

sorry to disapoint but there's not much you can do now that you are out of the UK. best of luck in the future.

Even though your case not straightforward, £7000 is an outrageous fee. Also, after you get DLR, you will have to wait 6 years to get ILR. There is nothing to stop you (after you get DLR) to go back to your home country and apply for Spouse visa. On a spouse visa, you only need to wait 2 years to ge...

Your chances of legalising your stay is very promising. You have alot of strong arguments argue. I think you have Article 8 rights. You have a UK husband, and UK children. The simplest way to legalise your stay is to leave the UK and apply for a Spouse visa from your home country. I know this may be...
