https://www.ukvcas.co.uk/help-support/ourinfo/prepareDocuments Thanks seagul. I checked this page before I made my initial post.

If I choose to submit documents online myself would I still be able to submit further documents in person when I go to enrol biometrics. Can I buy the document service in person when I go to the...

Any thoughts on this please

Hi All I would like the views from experienced members on an overstayer's immigration history and current case. Here is the timeline of events: 2008: Arrived in UK on 2 year working holiday visa. 2013: As an overstayer made an application to remain on human rights which was refused. 2014: had an isl...

Thanks for this clarity.

Does the spouse visa holder work? Are there any savings and if yes, how much? It is not FLR(FP) Private life. It would be FLR(FP) PARTNER route which is a new 10 year route, 4 x 2.5 year visas. Thanks for the prompt reply CR001. The spouse visa holder does not work, they have no savings either. So,...

Hi Hope someone can help with this query please. Wife arrived to the UK on Spouse visa in 2014 on 5 year route. Since in the UK the visa has been extended for 2.5 years.

Can anyone please confirm whether evidence or plane tickets will be required. I don't want to buy expensive tickets only to have the visa denied.

I've been reading the guidance and think only translated marriage certificate is required but want to be very sure.

Thanks

Hi all I know there are several similar posts on here but I find them quite confusing. I am British citizen in UK. My wife is Bangladeshi but with me in the UK on a spouse visa. She has just had her 2.5 year extension with brp card. We have a young british child. We are thinking oh going on short 3 ...

I've been looking into this application. What is defined as 'insomountable circumstances' in the context of this application type. Trying to establish how likely it is to be refused.

Thanks

No, not the parent route. It will be refused. The parent route is for couples that are divorced/separated and share responsibility for kids but DO NOT live together. FLR(FP) partner 10 year route is the one to go for if they do not meet the financial requirement. Thank you for your prompt reply CR0...

Thanks, so just to confirm, father is British from birth in his own right? Is this same as otherwise than by descent?

If it was an official English version birth certificate, it might have been wise to reference this with a brief covering letter. Contact your embassy, they would be best to advise you on reputable organisations who are registered to do translations of official documents. Thanks, we have managed to ...

We submitted the application to passport office, had provided both English and Bengali version of birth certificate however they have returned as they want translation of the Bengali birth certificate. What was the difference in what was provided and what they wanted? I'm not sure. The English cert...

Might be easier to enquire from your embassy or one of the reputable translation companies (we are not allowed to list/advertise company names etc on the forum). Is this passport application for yourself or for a child? What are your or childs claims to British citizenship? Thanks for prompt reply ...

Hello I'm looking for some advice on getting a foreign birth certificate translated from Bengali to English for British passport application.

Casa wrote:When did your cousin submit her spouse settlement visa? Before July 9 2012 or after?

The visa application was submitted in May 2012. It went to appeal and was granted after July 2012. My understand is that she is under the pre July 2012 requirements as she applied before.

Thanks
