Hi everyone My wife was granted a spouse visa in February 2011, She entered the UK on 29/March/2011, she will be applying for her ILR after the 28th February 2013 which will be 28 days before the 2nd anniversary of her entry date. My question is: 1. Do we have to submit the tenancy agreement as one ...
Hi Jambo Thanks for your advice. I just called the IPS and they adviced me to send: 1. My Passport (British passport of the parent who was British at the time of birth) 2. Son's passport 3. Son's Birth certificate from the country he was born - with English translation 4. Application form. Thanks [/...
1. ROA expires when the passport it's in expires. 2. No need to send parents' passports. Just fill in your British passport number in section 4 on the form. Thank you Jambo for your response. I thought the same but when I filled in the form and went to the post office (their passport application ch...
I am a British citizen. My child was born in Pakistan in Dec – 2010 while my wife waited for her spouse visa to be processed. As my son was British by decent, he was issued the ROA (Right of Abode) on his Pakistani passport – Both my wife and son arrived in the UK in Feb-2011. My question are: 1. I ...
She entered the UK on 29th of March so she was well within the time limit she could stay outside the UK.
So are you saying if her visa valid from date is 14/02/2011 then she can only apply for ILR on 01/02/2013 and no earlier - correct?
My son is British by descent, he was borned in Pakistan in Jan 2011, my wife had her spouse visa approved at the time and to speed things up we went for Right of Abode option on a Pakistani passport for my son, as it was much quicker than getting a British passport for him at the time. Now they are ...
Hi Everyone
My wife was granted UK spous visa from Pakistan (visa valid from date 14/02/11 valid 14/05/13).
When can we submit an ILR application - i.e. how many months before the expiry of her visa?
Thank you again Ptagonian. I wonder how much it costs to go through the POE - do they give you the decision same day? I think my wife's case is simple. She has been living with me and dependent on me, which we can support by document stated in my initial post. She does not have any over stays. I don...
