Hello, I am planning to apply for my child's passport without the MN1 application. I've just received ILR and my son is currently on an Indian passport with a dependent visa. He was born before I got my ILR. Although not the correct way to apply, I can just go into a post office and apply for my chi...

Hello, I am applying for ILR tomorrow and have managed to get all my documents, however, I just have one question with regards to one of my documents i.e. my previous employers no unpaid leave letter. I managed to get a letter from my previous employer saying that I worked there and I have not taken...

Does this mean that I'd be eligible to apply on or after 11th January 2018?

Cheers.

Hello, I would be applying for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) towards the end of this year and I wanted some information back regarding the continuous period of 5 years. I applied for my Tier-2 General for the first time at the end of December 2012. My visa at that time was Tier-1 Post Study Work ...

OK, as an example I'm the ECO. Why couldn't he draw the money out from his account in cash? Why would he need to return the money to the person who 'owed it'? Your point is fair and valid and I think that happened because he wanted to get a statement with a "decent" amount to show. Unfort...

Because he did not want it in his account. He wanted the money as a travellers cheque or in cash.

Was the money transferred from the account before the visa refusal or after? Ideally the bulk of money shouldn't have been touched whilst the visa application was under consideration. The ECO had doubt whether the additional fund was under exclusive control of the application. Now the subsequent tr...

1. List of document looks fine but there is no fixed amount - it depends on regular monthly income, number of visitors, duration of stay, amount the visitors are paying themselves for the trip etc. 2. Without knowing the exact reason for refusal (as stated in the refual letter) difficult to comment...

1. If you sponsor their entire visit including accommodation and cost of stay (food, expenditure etc) then you have to provide all supporting documents. 2. They need to re apply addressing the reason for refusal. 1. Supporting documents include the ones I mentioned right? Does there need to be an a...
