For reference, there were at least two previous caselaws regarding these issues prior to the removal of right of appeals for family visitors. They gave some interesting analysis at the time. I think they led to the changes in the Guidance. Genuine visitor: relevant and irrelevant considerations Saw...

Was your mother's passport stamped with a code 3 by the Border Officer on this most recent entry?

Just a normal stamp, nothing abnormal. Look same as other stamps in the passport. I am guessing that no code 3 then?

Again, it is not a numerical limit, like the EU's 90/180 days. Is she residing in the UK in guise of a visit visa, by making frequent and successive visits ? And are her ties to her country of habitual residence weak? These are the questions you should be asking and answering yourself. What she sho...

Between thanks everyone here especially @casa thanks guys, you are true heros.

I mean to say she is not totally taking care of baby, she is there as a grandmother looking after and spending quality time with her granddaughter. So, the question still remains - can she go back for a month to india until new rolling year starts and she comes back foe six months? I asked the immig...

Ok where is this in the official document if you have it handy. Can my mother go to india for a month and come back in feb as that will start a fresh rolling year where she can stay for 6 months again? We need her to get help with the kid. Same withy brother in USA, so she is planning to stay 6 mont...

Just returned to the UK this morning 26th Dec 2023 was stopped by the immigration and said you can only stay in UK for 6 months on a period of a year, you used 5 months ...

Thank you that's very useful.

Is not the and for the second statement after the or

You also will not lose it if your spouse or partner is a (British citizen) or (settled in the UK and one of the following)

So, is there wrong information in the UKBA website, like I stated in my post? https://www.gov.uk/returning-resident-visa "You also will not lose it if your spouse or partner is a British citizen or settled in the UK and one of the following"" Apply naturalisation now - Isn't there a r...

Hi, I have been granted with an ILR on Nov 2020. My husband holds British Passport. We both are planning to move to USA for work purposes. We might come back in 4-5 years time. Do I need to worry about losing ILR in this time living outside UK? According to the UKBA Returning Residents rules stated ...

Thank you both.

What is this red route? Where can I do this?

If I want to go with B1, how can I do that?

I am on Tier-2 General dependant visa. I been on this for 5 years so planning to apply ILR. All documentation looks good for me except : NARIC letter that confirms the qualification Is this mandatory? I extended my tier-2 dependant couple of times, never asked for this. Not sure why they need this n...

Hi,

I have letters from referrals dated 3 months ago, I have plans to apply back then but due to circumstences, I am applying now for British citizenship.

Do I need to get new letters or can I use the ones I have? is there a date expiration?

Thanks in advance.

I have seen posts saying when they do submit an application online for naturalization, they get two options asking for selecting new service or existing service. But I only have one option - Standard service: pay 1349.20 GBP, most people get a decision within 6 months after attending their biometric...

Can the referees sign online digitally, there are tools to sign the pdf's can they use that are do I need to post the forms to them physically?

But that is false information right? It is NOT!!! HO is aware of this glitch in the system and many have done this and had approvals. I have given my IHS number and Tier 2 Expiry date and now its showing 0.00 GBP You cannot use your Tier 2 details as they are no longer relevant. At least this is th...

But that is false information right?

I have given my IHS number and Tier 2 Expiry date and now its showing 0.00 GBP

At least this is the right information. All the information i have given here is correct.

This is so confusing. Its asked what is your visa expiry I said 2024 can I say 2022 as you suggested is that ok?

BTW thanks for all the help.

Somewhere on the pbs dependent form online for it has a question about ILR. And you put your expiry date as 3 years from now and not 2024.

I have said 31-12-2024 do i need to add 13-03-2022?

Your spouse will get a 3 year validity visa.

It's costing me 2400 GBP why is that, I am expecting 1200 isn't?

Thank you.

What Vista type I need to select - Tier 2 up to 3 years or Tier 2 over 3 years.

As I have applied for extensions 2 times and always up to 3 years but the total stay is 5 years.

I am on ILR and my wife is applying for Tier 2 Dependent PBS extension. On paying the health Surcharge online form asking for my visa route and details. I could not able to see ILR option there All I can see is: Discretionary Leave Further Leave to Remain - FLR Further Leave to Remain Human Rights a...

Thanks CR001.

I have got my ILR based on five years stay on Tier 2 General.

This means I need to go with PBS dependant extension visa. https://www.gov.uk/tier-2-general/family-members is that true?

My wife applied for dependent extension visa 3 years ago when I was on Tier 2 General. Its going to expire in a month. Now, I am on ILR and my wife completed 4 years on a dependent visa, she still needs to apply for a dependent visa for 1 more year so she can apply for ILR after 5 years of continuou...

Thanks guys make sense.

Once last question, can she apply for ILR now, as I am in ILR and she is in tier 2 dependent for last 4 years?

Or she needs to be in tier 2 dependent visa for 5 years and the apply for ILR?
