I can't change the application with the new passport number. I am planning to give a letter stating the situation...

Hello All,

I am in the process of applying a visitor visa for my nephew. In the application form section relationship to you, I can't find nephew. What should I use?

Even when I choose the Gold Platinum service which says the priority visa is included, again it asks for priority visa. If I choose that, the total comes to 25k + 21k

This makes me question does the gold platinum package include the priority visa?

I have chosen the Gold Platinum package which is 25k. It says it includes the priority service. Is that what you are referring too? Thanks for the reply. Can't appreciate more.

Excellent, thank you. I having some trouble with the site. 1. I have finished the application and paid the fees in Visa4UK website 2. Book the appointment through Visa4UK site 3. I have registered with Commercial partner (VFS Chennai) Visa type - I can't find Right to Abode in there.. What do I choo...

Hello,

Do we need a TB certificate for the infant? Some forums says it is better to have it and some say it is not needed.

If it is not needed, I don't want to get the TB certificate.

Any help please.

Thanks blacklabel69!!

Hello, I am filling the application form for the Right To Abode for my daughter who is 10 months old. There are sections about income/expenditure and these seem to be mandatory. What do we fill in these sections? Also I am guessing the permanent address will be my (Father's) UK address. I am filling...

Thanks lot for responding blacklabel69

Hello, that's great news Congratulations!! I am in a similar situation and need to apply for my daughter's ROA. The question I have is, once you get the ROA, is there any time limit within which you have to get into the country? Normally these days when you get other type visa, it says you have to t...

Thanks Marcnath and CR001. I agree with you CR001. I have always done my application myself and never used a solicitor. With the spouse visa I feel some of the points are not laid out crystal clear. " there is NO absence limit for spouse settlement visa holders" - I agree but this is not m...

Thanks Marcnath. You are absolutely spot on with my query. It is quite confusing between these 2 categories (Spouse of settled person and spouse of PBS migrant) and there is no clear documentation clarifying these. Not many people are aware of this difference in category and confuse with the 180 day...

Thanks Vinny and Marcnath. The information I got from the search is, the rules have changed in Nov 2016 and patners will need to spend 5 years in UK for ILR. If you are outside the UK for more than 180 days the 5 years gets reset. Marcnath, when you say it doesn't apply, I am thinking it is an excep...

I just checked and she was initially on a FLR(M) as well. So in Feb 2019 she will be in FLR(M) for 5 years.

In that scenario how does the 180 day rule play. Will it affect her?

Did you apply for ILR under Tier 1? - Yes Did you your wife initially apply as a PBS dependant? - I was in ILR when she first got the visa Has she switched to FLR(M) or is she still a PBS dependant? - When we went for second extension it was FLR(M) When does her leave expire? - Feb 2019 When and for...

Thanks Vinny. Appendex-fm gives this information. What is worrying is "At least 60 months in the uk" Section E-ILRP: Eligibility for indefinite leave to remain as a partner (a) at least 60 months in the UK with: (i) leave to enter granted on the basis of entry clearance as a partner grante...

Thanks Vinny.

I first came into the country with a tier 1 visa and then got my citizenship. So will it make my wife PBS dependant? If it does, will these criteria about 180 days apply for her.

Thanks

I am in a similar situation. For spouse/settlement visa, does the 180 days limit apply?

Hello,

I am a Citizen and my wife is spouse visa. If she leaves UK for more than 6 months will she have a problem for ILR.

Some people say there is no limit for spouse visa. A bit confused, if someone can clear this it will be of great help.

Thanks for your reply. Do you know where I can find that information in a official document?

I read about the 180 day rule which is contradicting. Any links to official document will be of great help.

Thanks

Hello all, My wife joined me in the UK in Nov 2013. Her visa is due to expire in Feb 2019. She is eligible for ILR at that time. She is now pregnant and wants to go back to India for delivery. If she is outside the UK for more than 6 months will it be a problem for ILR. How long can she stay outside...

Thanks Tamilmaran. Did you have to submit the Life in Uk certificate along with the application? I submitted that along with my ILR application and Home office have kept it. They haven't given it back to me. I spoke to Home Office and they said in I need not send the certificate as they already have...

Thanks.

Hello, I am going to apply for naturalisation. I presently have ILR and from India. It will be good to get a consolidated list of documents needed for the application. I am self employed from 2011 and was employed before. My degree in India is recognised in PBC and grants 10 points in the website fo...
