Hi, We are currently on ILR and have just got our UK born daughter's british passport. I understand that we will not be able to apply OCI for her, as both of us will be eligible for BC April next year only. The other options I now have: PIO VISA We might be going to India early next year for 3-4 wee...

That should be perfectly fine. Couple of years back we took our daughter to one of the biometric appointment and there were no issue. Anyways, you can call the booking appiontment number and confirm this with the customer service agents.

Hi Roshni,

There was a case reference mentioned in the approval letter and I had mentioned the same in the email. There should be a reference number in your letter as well, unless there is a mistake at UKBA's end.

thanks,
Anu

Hi Roshni, I had the same issue. I received the BRP for my dependents on 3rd April after getting successful ILR on 30th March. I only received mine yesterday (on 1st May), in between this period I emailed UKBA twice and was advised to wait due to some IT issues. Also, the issue date on my BRP card i...

Hi,

I got my ILR last month as I had taken PEO appointment. You should be fine as you are currently getting a higher salary than one mention in the COS.

thanks,

Hi, Here is my understanding: The fact that you came back to work in UK under the same WP and all your extension were done from within UK should make you eligible for ILR in August 2012. The only issue is around the date mentioned in the employment letter. I think you should try to convince your emp...

HI, I had my ILR done last week and I had attached 3 months pay slips, 3 months bank statement and last year p60 with my application. Tough the guidance suggest only the recent pay slip and bank statement and does not mention P60, it is always advisable to carry as many as documents in case you are ...

There should not be any issue with taking your infant along, I got my ILR last month and we had taken our 2 yr UK born daughter along with us.

I do not think this will be an issue.

Thanks Guys. The staff in Glasgow is very friendly and I did not face any kind of rudeness or any issues. My letter simply said that I am working in the role of JOB_TITLE since my UK start date. The company still require me to fulfill the role of JOB_TITLE and I am being paid at a rate above the SOC...

I Got my ILR on 30th March 2012 from Glasgow at the PEO. My route to ILR was work permit + Tier2 ICT. I had an appointment at 9 AM and we reached Glasgow office at 8:30 AM. I was called at 9 AM at the window and ran into trouble as my employment letter din't includes SOC Code and Salary and I was to...

You can go directly to Declaration section in this case, where you do not have any dependent

the midnight thing does work, I was able to book an appointment at midnight and all the slots were gone by 12:10. All you need to is to press the button at exactly 00:00 hours. Good Luck.
BTW it was for Glasgow, but I reckon there is only one booking system and it cannot be different for Croydon

Hi,

I do not think that this should be considered as criminal conviction, as it is just a parking fine.

thanks,
Anu

Hi, I would be applying for ILR by end of this month and have couple of queries: 1. During my initial 2 years in UK I was getting per diem in UK and salary in India, therefore I do not have any Uk salary slips or P60s. I have the same for the rest of the period though. I have worked for the same emp...
