Re: Naturalisation and University Comp Sickness Insurance

It seems highly unplausible to me that I might have been deprived of the right to apply for the citizenship because of health insurance, which isn't mandatory. It seems that few friends of mine are in a similar situation now, and we may have to wait till 2019 to apply for the PRC(!!!). There is no ...

Re: Suggestions for EU Dependent

He's in about the most difficult situation possible then. He won't even qualify as an unmarried partner.

Your best bet would be to return to his or your home country, marry, and then return under the EEA regulations.

When did his Tier 1 visa expire? Is the Home Office aware that he has overstayed?

Re: Keeping PR valid when moving abroad

If you have held PR for over 12 months, your best bet is probably to apply for citizenship now. If you lose PR due to absence, you probably won't ever get another chance to do it again this easily.

Re: Spouse eligibility for naturalization

Assuming your absences are within the limits;

You can apply under section 6(1) in December 2016 (now I guess),

Your wife will be able to apply under section 6(1) in August 2017 OR under section 6(2) immediately when you become a British citizen.

Re: Post- S Singh applications for PR

The RC only serves to confirm your status at the time you apply for it. It doesn't grant or confer any rights and it is not a visa, therefore while the card itself is valid for 5 years, it does not necessarily reflect your actual status. When it comes to applying for a PR card or DCPR, HO will not c...

Yes, you are able to apply together on the same form EEA(PR). It should be completed from the perspective of the EEA national as they are the main applicant.

If his marriage is a religious one performed in the UK and no civil registration has been done, then legally he is not married.

How long have they been together?
How did he initially enter the country?
Does he have a valid passport?
Has he been working?

Re: British Citizenship- child born abroad

Can you afford a UK birth? In an NHS hospital, for a straightforward birth with no complications you are looking at around £3500.

If you choose to go private, you're looking at about £7500 absolute minimum.

Pretty much all of the IT sector in Helsinki is English speaking. But Finnish is a difficult language to learn if you want to properly integrate into the society.

As your husband is a non-EEA citizen, his own economic activity is completely immaterial. His right to live and work in the UK is derived from your own economic status, so his period of work cannot be used to count towards PR. It is possible to acquire PR in under 5 years if you become permanently i...

Not in British Nationality law it doesn't, but it might affect how yours or your partners nationality is passed to the child.
