Hi Bani Do you know anyone in HSMP forum got their refund back who entered UK 6 weeks after getting first entry clearance. HSMP forum has raised this issue with HO and requested refund for people who entered UK within 3 months after getting entry clearance. Please post your feedback. Thanks in advan...
Some of them got surrender certificate only by submitting current passport even though they had 2 or more cancelled passports.
It is down to the person and its mood on that day. Carry everything you have and hand over anything that requested.
Easy option is pay the OISC registered agent around £500 (same day service) and get it done next week once you have your bank statement.
rather loosing sleep over this one. as added bonus.You will have plenty of time to plan things.
InUkOnHsmp No need to worry and lose sleep over new form. Please note old forms are valid up to 21 days from day the new form is avaialble. Please Home office guidance below "In line with paragraph 34I of the Immigration Rules, the previous versions of each of these forms will continue to be va...
Doing certification won't really help in this down market. You will always lose out some who got banking background. The reason banks always hire people with banking experience not because they are the best technical people but rather they got experience in enviornment and understand culture. But th...
I don't know precisely about your situation.You need to be economically active at the time of ILR application. You need to prove this by supplying last 3 month payslips on the date of application. If you are eligible now for ILR, you should use one of agents and get it done immediately. If the casew...
In most secnarios,All except 6.
3 and 4 may be OK if accompanied by driver held Full licence for 3 or more years or driving instructor as long as it is not dangerous driving.
Two important points about ILR espcially for same day service 1. economically active for contionous three months before making ILR application 2. If you have P60's/Pay slips covering full period of work permit employment+ some from of documentation for economic activity to cover Tier 1 period. you s...
Couple of points which may be relevant for your situation. If baby is born in UK after you get your ILR, baby is british citizen by birth. If baby is born in UK before you/your husband get your ILR, baby is entitled to british citizenship by registration. If baby is born outside UK, one of you shoul...
As far as I understand, they perform a credit check on everybody to establish identity and address. for last 3 years. It is not a random process. But being on public electoral register is important. There is another scenario where you may have mortgage,credit cards and may be paying bills but if you...
Are you registered in electoral register ? If yes what kind of register ? (Edited or public). If you are registered atleast for council tax, this issue shouldn't arise. People live in shared accomodation and don't have any credit history (like paying bills or council tax or mortages) face this issue...
I agree with you. There is no guidance on this but It is down to caseworker to decide whether an applicant is eligible for refund and there should be note to say refund should be processed. As reported in hsmp forum link, there are many cases where refunds were denied especially where caseworker dec...
It looks like caseworker who granted ILR should add a note saying that your are eligible for refund so that your refund will be processed automatically.Otherwise you won't get anything. this is for persons who applied ILR under HSMP JR. You need to find out this by calling Home office. " No not...
"You must give details of all unspent criminal convictions. This includes road traffic offences but not fixed penalty notices (such as speeding or parking tickets) unless they were given in court" . You must include all drink-driving offences. An explanation of unspent convictions is give...
If it is given in your court, then it should be spent before you can apply for naturalisation. Did you declare them in the form ? Anything given in court must be declared unless that was spent. You need give more details about when this has happened and full details of the incident to get some sugge...
kumarmaa. Congrats. You can transfer your ceremony if you get earlier date in the different council. Can you please share you decision date on your letter and whether your application is family or single ?
@Pisces Did you call home office to find out the status. If not,I think it is good idea to get an update just make sure nothing lost in the post.
You can just ask them to check whether anything has been posted for you.
As far as I know, normally it shouldn't take more than a week (10 days at worst case) from the decision date. Give them a follow up call and find out the status on monday/tuesday. Some people received ceremony invitation from the council directly before approval letter. you may get this invitation f...
