Hi,
my daughter is on DL and living in UK for nearly 7 years and she is 8 yrs old now.
once i got my ILR will she be able to apply for naturalizaion on the basis of 7 years cos i know she cant apply for FLR/m as a matter of fact, she cant switch from DL to dependent visa.
Does anyone have an idea about the possiblity of 7 years continuous residence of a child or is there any other better alternative other than applying for another DL for 3 years and then ILR
??
guide please.. cos one of the solicitor on other forum did said to me that my daughter can apply for Naturalization and its a DL application ...
help please !

Dear @AMH,@k_alibaba
I think July applications are processing now, and occasionally August applications.
So hopefully by end of next month, they may start September applications, or if we are lucky we may get sooner..
All the best friends..

I am in fairly similar situation as essentialSalt. My life is on hold. I did and do have a few job offers (waited for over 6 months) but I can't start due to the UKBA waiting time. I am finishing off my phd and trying to start a part time job (they wanted full time, but I can't for WORK 20hr max reason).
My part time job is in university, they said that they need to photocopy my passport by law.

Immediately as long as she meets all other requirements. However, If you can manage to attend at PEO, you should be able to do it on the same day (Both Forms). Read this

Hi,
I will be thankful if someone can give me guidance on my wife's visa.
I applied ILR in August 2012 on 10 years long residence and expecting to get it soon. Once I will get ILR I will then need to apply visa for my wife on FLR M form,
She came to UK in Feb 2012 as my dependent for the first time and has visa till Oct 2013.
Will I have to prove income of £18,600 to get her visa or this rule only apply to those who came to UK after 8 July 2012 ?
Can anyone confirm please !!

what the hell is that for... for the s*** hole service????...
tax payer is probably gaining in this case because an application process is said to be costing only 1/2 of what we pay (not that i am tax payer)
hell with it

yes, one can extend the leave to remain provided he/she qualifies under the category they wish to apply at the time of application and application should be made within 28 days of refusal.
Hi Graceofgod
Does that mean if a application is refused before you complete 10 yrs you will not have a break/gap if you re-applied within 28 days of a refusal notice or notice of an invalid application due to fees, wrong form etc?
No, this 28 days provision does not apply to 10 years ILR as you probably know UK immigration rules have lots of grey areas. UKBA uses discretion for a single gap upto 10days. Normally UKBA stipulate a timeframe to send missing details or valid application form and if you comply with that time frame then it should be ok.
Hi
It looked like I would almost have at least one sleepless night, the first in 7 months but never mind. Not entirely sure of 2-3 weeks in 2009 so will have to wait for the outcome on the case to put the issue to sleep. Thanks

Hello fellow denizens of this limbo we call waiting-on-ukba-to-pull-a-finger-out! First, my grist to the mill:
App sent: 8/8/2012
Monies out: 12/8/2012
Ack received: 14/8/2012
Bio invite: 7/11/2012
Bio done: 12/11/2012
ILR received: pending
Could someone do the Skydrive honors please?
So I see UKBA need to increase visa fees to 'maintain the world-class service' we are all currently receiving! They can bend us but we won't break people! I'm not happy with it, but after waiting 10yrs, another 7/8 months won't be the death of me...#overabarrel
PS: By my calculations us early Aug apps ae looking at mid to late March at the earliest...

just need your thoughts:
has anybody tried to visit PEO appointment for their ILR (10), I have applied for my ILR by post on Sept 03 and still waiting and my wife is my dependent on PSW and her 10 years is going to be completed in April 06, 2013, anyone thinks its worth trying and request them to accept application over the counter. is there any chance of loosing money in case they do not accept application for consideration and take payments too.

I am fascinated that there are five people on the spreadsheet waiting for over 50 weeks - you folks must have contacted you MPs right ? or better still contact BBC Watchdog.
A few months ago I saw an advert in the Civil Services Portal for 50 caseworkers in UKBA Liverpool. They'd better have been recruited by now.
