I really need some help. I have received approval Letter of British Citizenship from HOME Office dated 20th June . I contacted my (Hillingdon) council and asked can I book an appointment for Oath Ceremony in September 1st Week. They can give appointment up to 1 month. My family is travelling to Indi...

1. There is no such rule that you can't travel. 2. No 3. Do a Royal Mail redirection or give your 'friend' a key to check your mail. Bear in mind that mail redirection can delay post by up to 3 weeks. If I understand correctly Home office approval letters will be special delivery and needs signatur...

I need help on the below query. I have applied for Citizenship in Feb 23rd (All family together) through Brent NSC (under Pilot Scheme). I have not received an approval yet. My Wife and kids are planning to travel to India from [b]Jul last week to Till Sept 2nd[/b]. I am planning to travel to India ...

You welcome , I am just helping.
Best of luck and keep helping others in this blog.

Yes , that's right !
Don't worry too much ,if any corrections they will let you know.

I have got my ILT through WP+ tier 2 ICT.
I have got 12 months salary slip attested by company, but only submitted 6 months.
I think 6 months minimum is required, but you need to have 12 months salaryslip with you in case CW asks for it.

Your wife is eligible and you can apply for ILR. my wife had 2 absence of 300 and 325 days. 1st absence, I was working in India for 5 months and I didn't provide any proof, but mentioned in reason as " lived with Family in India as Husband was working in India" 2nd absence, I have provided...

Submit your passport and BRP card along with your dependents application, they will return all documents after decision on application.

I haven't taken any photo copies of any documents for self and dependent application.

Photo copies is not mandatory.

You can write "Annual Leave".
If you are getting employer letter for the absence, include country you visited.
I am not sure, under which category you are applying for ILR.

My Wife's visa was valid till Jan 2014. Visa validity doesn't matters as long as your dependent are eligible for ILR.
Hope I answered your question.

Thanks again Ishwarch. One last thing is regarding your absences which was well within the allowed 180 days per 12 months continous period. Mine is similiar as yours. So is it mandatory to submit an employer letter in this case? I have only the pay slips & bank statements for periods of absence...

I don't think there will be any issue. My wife had 300 + 330 days absence in 5 years and we got ILR. I got ILR through WP+Tier2 route (initially) and then I applied for my dependents, as I had 165 days single absence. Everything went really smooth, no questions asked. I only submitted birth certific...

No , I haven't written any cover letter.
I have submitted 1 birth certificate.

I took a employer letter states the following - 1. I am employed with company --> Start Date 2. Job Title 3. Annual Salary 4. SOC code and says I am paid above Tier 2 salary requirement 5. absence out of UK with reason. Payslip I carried --> last 6 months only. I took 12 months but submitted only la...

No need to carry WP documents, but for backup keep it in a seperate folder. CW will not ask. Keep it simple and make folder with label, helps them to complete your application quickly. I got ILR through WP+Tier 2 ICT. I had given the following. 1. Set(O) (1 Folder) 2. UKBA payment confirmation lette...

Keep salary slip and bank statement for the absence period and produce only when asked for. It is highly unlikely that CW will ask for it given it is well below the allowed limit. You will be fine . All the best ! Hi - As per my understanding for WP holders need to show the employer letter to state...

Initially i ticked WP dependent's, but CW told me to select Tier 2 Migrant.

Even i was thinking of PBS Dependent, but I selected Tier2 Migrant.

I didn't had any issue.

Guru's any advise?

I have got my dependents ILR success in Cryodon. I got ILR on May 3rd 2013 Through (WP+Tier2) I have applied for my dependents seperately. I used SET (O). My wife had 2 absences of 300 (July 2009-May 2010) & 335 (Jul 2011-Jun 2012) days. first absence I given reason as "was with family and ...

To Whomsoever It May Concern This is to certify that <<Your Name>> (Emp# <<Emp No.>> ), is a permanent employee of <<Company Name>> since <<Start date of employment>> . <<Your Name>> is working with us as <<Designation>> in United Kingdom on a long term...

No, I have not provided any covering letter.

But you have to make sure your employer letter includes gross annual salary in your employer letter.

Yes, you don't need SOC code information.

Here is the below letter format, which I have submitted for my ILR (i.e. WP+tier 2 ICT) Employer Letter This is to certify that <<Your Name>> (Employee No. # xxxxx ) is an employee of <<Company Name>> since <<Date>> . <<Your Name>> is working with us in United Kingdom on a Long term assignment with ...
