Thank you Seagul for your help. Just a question occur in regards to my son. Should I apply him under non-applying category (my Question 7 ) or Say YES (in my Question 7 Point 2) and apply him as new applicant on my application as dependent. He is a son (British Citizen) of myself and sponsor. Please help me out of this confusion. Thank you very much for considering to help me out.

[HM2009]

hi Seagul, or anyone, will you be able to help me on my above question. Your help will be much appreciated. thank you.

Should I apply him under non-applying category

A British citizen (son) doesn't need any visa, therefore, should be considered as none-applying.

Thank you Seagul for helping me out. I asked the above question as got confused after reading another topic up here "should our British child be listed as a Dependent on FLR(m) application" and someone in that topic said yes it has to be included as dependent. But i think i misunderstood that topic or they were talking about paper form?

Need help on one more question. In the finance section, they ask do you own or rent your home. Home is owned (mortgage) by my partner. So what should i choose in the option, "Own"?
It will be much appreciated if you could help me out. Thank you.

"Own" should be appropriate.

Thank you seagul once again for your help. I am having 2 more questions as I move ahead in the application. It will be much appreciated if you can help me out.

1) Is the account with a bank or utility company for which you have supplied information and supporting documentation held jointly by you and other people? (some documents are in joint name myself and husband (sponsor). so he should sign the part 2 of this form?)

2) Does the account with the bank or utility company for which you have supplied information and supporting documentation relate to another person who is to provide you financial support? (Is the another person in this question refer to my husband as he is sponsoring me. so he should sign the part 3 as well of this form?)

A document which usually is marked as page 1 of 3, 2 of 3, 3 of 3 without its full pages is classified as redacted and, thus highly likely can be invalidated. Therefore, a document need to be attached in its fullness which won't require any distinctive laborious work given the fact that almost every document now comes in one single file in pdf format.
