I am a British Citizen and wanted to know if it is possible to apply for a British passport for my baby born in India while I am in the UK. My wife is an Indian Citizen and both the baby and my wife are currently in India.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Have they backdated your ILR? YOu must have got your BC by now? MY ILR is dated 4th jan 2012, But I fir...

How should I cover this?

You can claim earnings for 12 months in last 15 months immediately before your application. If you get the points claimed for earnings & same/more from T1G, that should be fine.

Hi All, I have 280 days our and 176 days in one stretch. I went back home country to do some professional courses to improve my career prospect in UK as i was earning quite low at that time. I have ILR in May 2012. Any advices for me what should i do ? what reason i should put ? what are the chance...

Regarding payment - Were you told abt the visa outcome before paying the fees?

Yes, CW told me to collect the passports after 2 hrs. & then she asked me to make the payment on counter 6.

Hi, If you were applying for ILR based on Tier 1(G), why were you asked about Shortage Occupancy? 3) Is your profession still in Shortage Occupation List: Yes Thanks. I think, this was a casual question. May be if your occupation is on shortage occupation list,it is a plus point. I am not sure. I s...

Just a quick question, what is Data Protection you are referrign to, as am not sure I have heard about it and I am appearing for review on 30th Jan myself.

Thanks in advance

That is the SAR file request, made by me.

I am happy to share my experience while attending appointment for ILR based on WP + T1(G), on 4th Jan 2012. I am glad to inform that, my application has been successful & passport stamped on the same day. It took approx. 2 hrs. to get the stamped passports. I am thankful to all, for sharing the ...

SOLIHULL SUCCESS - WP+Tier1(G)+LtdCompany but horrible experience with Caseworker. I have been there at 8:15 am ,doors were opened at 8:30 am and went and gave the token number and caseworker called at 8:50 am. caseworker seems to be around 40 years lady. She asked me to "Give me your earnings...

well the good news is that my application has been approved and I can go pick up my documents any time. Thank goodness!!! I'm not sure even last week many lawyers would have known much about what was happening, unless they got a heads up. But yes, it seems you have to be really on the inside to hav...

Girly,

I think, UKBA can not be so inconsistent, as it affects a large no. of applicants, who have been planning based on UKBA published guidance & experience of successfull people.
I think, UKBA will grant ILR.

I applied to ILR on the 8th, and the rule that "business travel doesn't count anymore for your 180 days out of the country" changed on the 5th. so completely unfair, and it impacted a lot of people apparently, i'm sure many of whom reasonably made travel plans for Christmas having been to...

thanks - I read it carefully, and I'm simply saying even the caseworkers themselves said things have changed. I understand your point, it's just worth noting that strict interpretation is being applied - in case anyone is going thinking business travel will be waived. the advice lines should be mor...

@aspirant09- yes, he is applied before 31-Mar-2009. Are you absolutely sure there will be no problem for ILR. Anyone else if have more information, could you please share? Sorry , just nervous. Thanks If you go word by word, where the points for qualification are mentioned, it is clear, if you appl...

This means that once a migrant worker is in a position to move forward with an application for indefinite leave to remain (i.e. settlement), and if the applicant has spent more than 180 days outside the UK during the five-year period preceding the filing of the application, regardless of whether th...

I was on student visa in year 2006 and applied for HSMP in October 2006 before changes came into effect in November 2006. I got my approval and received the letter in December 2006. Back then I scored 65 points which was required. THen i applied for FLR (HSMP) and got refused in UK and so i had to ...

Why don't you use the income till November. The rules says that you can show income for any 12 months in the last 15 month. So why take chances. Agreed, I think that's what I will do, this makes more sense. But in guidance notes, it is mentioned that your salary slip has to be most recent. If the a...

Q1) do i just take a average of the 12 months NET i am gong to claim and put it there? or take a constant NET without OT/Bonus and fill it in??! Q2) RE: 5.1 (If so, how much do you pay each month?): You did not mentioned your Visa category. I am considering it Tier 1 General, Q1: The averge take ho...

Hi, I'm planning to apply for ILR on 7-Jan-12. As far as the evidence for salary is concerned, for the month of Dec-11 I will have a payslip. Additionally, i'll have a letter from my employer certifying the salary credit for all 12 months of 2011 separately to me. What I will not have is the origin...

Thanks. I did comb through the passports, I really couldn't even see some of the stamps! For some, I have the approx dates but I don't have a destination printed correctely, and vice versa. There must be a better way than this as I'm definitely over 180, inclusive of business travels. Prob under 18...

Congrats on your success.
What were the convictions by Court? Are they Trafic related?

Bobby

Thanks Innocent Devil for the link. I cannot find any reference to civil judgments. The duration listed in the link seems to be for criminal cases. As per NACRO, which is a body, recognised by UKBA, for Rehabilitation of Offenders Act, had indicated that non criminal judgements, do not affect ILR s...

Is a CCJ counted as an unspent conviction in the ILR rules? As far as Credit History is concerned, if there is a County Court Judgement against you and if you pay the amount due within a month, this does not show up on your credit history. Is a Civil Judgement a conviction? IMHO Criminal judgements...
