Query on Cohabitation I will be applying for ILR in a few months along with my wife, with my current status as Tier-1 General Migrant. Is it necessary to provide cohabitation proof for the last 2 years out of the 5 year period, or this could be any 2 year period within the 5 year span? I ask this q...
I am currently on Tier 1 visa and my son is a Tier 1 dependent on me until Apr, 2012. He was born in the UK last year. I am going for my ILR next week and planning to skip his ILR and apply directly for his citizenship registration via MN1 form. How soon should i apply for his MN1 after i get my ILR...
I am applying for my ILR next week. One simple question. Does the form needs to be a color print or Black & White form should be good. Please help. Please share your experiences
Hello, I am currently on Tier 1 visa about to apply for ILR next month. I receive only online payslip statements from my employer. Do i have to get these rubber stamped by my employer or anything else(like the way we did it at the time of applying for Tier 1) ? Does the guidance says anything partic...
I am in the same situations to excludes my two UK born childern from ILR application ,but some solicitors suggests to get their ILR so I am undecided and need assurance from some one who have gone through the process . This would be appreciated by many applicants because the fees is 675 now ,which ...
Finally the payment has left my account yesterday, but no acknowledgement letter yet. Tried calling them and an automated voice advised me that they have a backlog of application due to a lot of people applying just before the fee rise on 6th of April. @helpneeded2011. I didn't include my sons in m...
Has any body applied for MN1 recently? Home Office received my kids application on 9th but they have not deducted the fee so far, no acknowledgement letter either. We got SET(O) on 31st March and both of our sons were born before that. We have applied under section 1(3). Any idea what could be goin...
Hi eager2learn, I think you are fine here. I am also following the steps as you have taken. I will be applying my and wife's ILR in the last week of May (and exclude my UK born son's name in the ILR saving 675 GBP). As far as i know, you getting your Tier 1 visa changed to ILR will have NO effect on...
Hello Friends and seniors, Can you please confirm what ghummy has said is FALSE. We can indeed exclude the infant's name in our ILR application (if infant is born in UK) and go for his citizenship registration directly via MN1 form after we get our ILR. That way we can save amount on the infant's IL...
Dear Moderators, Hope you can help with this situation. I got my HSMP after 3 April 2006 but before November 2006. Hence I had to apply for an extension and convert my HSMP to Tier 1 visa. Very soon my visa will run out and will need to apply for ILR. I have my wife staying with me. We have a son w...
Hello, I will be applying ILR for myself and my wife who is my dependent in May after completing 5 years of stay via SET(O) form (WP + HSMP + Tier 1). I am not including my son's name (born in UK) in the ILR application and planning to go directly for his citizenship registeration via MN1 form after...
Thanks a lot Sush for your reply. Another question: Assuming they do not travel outside the UK, can they stay in the UK with the old visa (Tier 1 dependent) which is valid until Oct 2012, until they qualify for ILR next year. My question is, Can they jump directly from Tier 1 dependent to ILR (witho...
I am on Tier 1 visa valid until Oct, 2012 and my wife and son are on Tier 1 dependent also valid until Oct, 2012l. I will be eligible to apply for my ILR next month (Mar, 2011). I am planinig to apply for my ILR alone since my wife and kid are not eligible for ILR (since they they been here in UK fo...
My friend has been rejected not because of new rules but because of the new bands that were created recently and would make the applicant fall outsite the bands, thereby not getting enough points for earnings (very similar to the case of Jigar described here). As suggested, the best and safe bet is ...
From ilrdilemma's reply it is clear that Jigar may not apply for his ILR because of his timing regarding initial Tier 1 application and new rules for earnings that came into affect. A friend of mine had the same problem last week...(Poor guy lost 1950 GBP in the process, he said the home office was ...
Thanks a lot John. Any idea, what happens after you apply the MN1 form? Will they issue some registration certificate that I need to provide when applying for my son's british passport ? What are the timeline involved for each step? Also, Is he eligibe for going to the PR route since he is only 15 m...
Hi Sush, I thought only the Tier 1 main applicant needs to follow the resident requirements for ILR (i.e. not to stay for more tha 180 days out of UK in five years and not more than 90 days at a stretch.). Are you sure that these are required for Tier 1 dependent as well when applying for ILR ? I th...
Hello All, My situation is very simple and hope to get all your opinion.. I am on Tier 1 and my spouse is on Tier 1 dependent living with me in UK since Jun, 2006. I should be able to apply for ILR on May, 2011 after living here for 5 years. I am planning to send my spouse back to India now for 7 mo...
