Hi, I'm hoping to apply for UK naturalisation soon, and had a few things I was hoping someone could help clarify: 1. I've been in the UK about 6 years (3 years as tier 1, 2 years as unmarried partner, and now 2 years permanent resident). I'm assuming that since I'm an unmarried partner (and not marr...
Hi, I'm planning on applying to switch into the unmarried partner category in the next few months and I had a question about evidence of cohabitation. We'll have been living together for 2.5 years when I apply, and although we have loads of correspondence linking us to the same address, My name wasn...
Hi all, I am hoping to switch into the unmarried partner visa category at some point in the near future. Of note: one of our tenancy agreeements is causing me a bit of concern. Our landlord forgot to put my name on the typed agreement, and so he handwrote it in (my partner's name is typed in) when h...
Hi all, I am currently on Tier 1, but am looking at switching over into the unmarried partner category as I would like to take on fulltime study (and part-time work!) next year. If my FLR(M) application is rejected, is my Tier 1 status affected? Will the FLR(M) rejection affect my ability to apply f...

Since my partner has lived at our flat ...
Yes you can. Subject to New English requirements for partners regards Thanks so much Sushdmehta, Just to clarify, I know you can do this if you delay your entry to the UK, but this is not my situation. I switched to the unmarried partner category from Tier 1. Still OK? If so, any limitations to thi...
Hi, I wonder if anyone can help me with my question. I hold one of these 27 month partner visas - and I understand that you cannot apply for ILR until 28 days before your 2 year qualifying period is up - which isn't for another 3 months. I want to start a new job, and the employer insists that I hav...
Does anyone know the best way to prove funds/ability to support oneself for a partner visa? I am a student and my partner is a contracter (he issues invoices to his employer that are payable to his Ltd company, and then draws a salary and occasional dividends from his company bank account; therefore...
Hi all, I am currently on a Tier 1 General Visa, but was considering changing to an unmarried partner visa (my partner is British) given the uncetainty re: whether I will be able to extend within Tier 1 after April 2011. An employer I was speaking to mentioned that she thought the gov't was consider...
