ILR Application Queries

[kavisekhar]

Dear Members

Will the spelling difference in the documents have an impact on my ILR decision.

UKVI will use your documents for names

[kavisekhar]

Thanks !
In our case the situation is as below:

The name with different spelling (one letter is missing)is in my UK Naric and degree certificate alone.
We have the government gazette documents for the name change as well.

All my other documents(current BRP,Passport,Marriage Certificate,Pay slip,Bank statement,utility bills etc...)have the name with additional R.

Will it make sense for me to declare it in my ILR application stating yes for the question ''Have you been known by any other name''

The only concern have is that i had not declared it when i had applied for Tier 2 visa initially.

I need your expert opinion whether to declare now in my ILR application are not .

I can declare it now but dont want to be picked up stating that i had not declared it earlier.
Kindly advise.

Provide all the evidence you have if you have changed your name. This is not a big issue

Hi All

I have few queries on the ILR application .

1)Have you previously lived in a country outside the UK including your country of birth?

For the above question I have lived in UK on Tier 2 ICT dependent Visa for a year and then travelled to home country for switching over to my Tier 2 General Main applicant visa .
Do i have to capture this period under the countries i have lived in.

Since it is asking for countries outside UK i think i can ignore my stay in UK.
Could someone confirm.

Regards
K

I assume you always lived in your country of birth before moving here. It is not about travels

[kavisekhar]

I will be giving all details including my stay in country of birth.
But i have doubt about whether i have to mention my stay in UK as well.
This period falls outside the 5 year period .
Could you clarify pls.

[contorted_svy]

You don't have to mention it. The form clearly asks

Have you previously lived in a country outside the UK including your country of birth?

So no need to mention time you spent in the UK in that question.

Hi All

Would like to know when I can submit the application for ILR under Tier 2 General/skilled worker visa
I assume that the application will be deemed to be submitted once the biometric is done .

Visa Issued-18th Dec 2017
Entered UK on -30th Dec 2017

Can I submit the application on 25th Nov 2022 and do the biometric later .
Or should I submit the application only after 30th Nov 2022.

A bit confused. Pease help.

25th of November is fine.

[kavisekhar]

Hi

On my first BRP the issue date is 20th Dec 2017.
I believe still 25th Nov holds good.
Could you comment pls.

Hi Members

While filling up the form i could see they are asking for the below consents.

Declaration of consent for the Home Office to request verification checks
Declaration of third party consent for joint bank or utility account holders

Both the forms are one and the same. Do I have to submit them twice?

1)One signed form by my wife and myself for Declaration of consent for the Home Office to request verification checks.

2)Another signed form by my wife and myself for Declaration of third party consent for joint bank or utility account holders

Will it suffice if I just submit one set of forms rather than two.

Kindly Clarify.

Hi Members

Few more queries

1)Do I have to provide any proof of absence for my wife who is a dependent applicant?

2)I had changed company under tier 2 general visa. Had travelled to home country on two occasions for a period of 10 days once and another for two days. This travel took place during 2018 and 2019 while with the previous employer. I do not have any absence letter from my previous employer. Are there any other options for us to provide the evidence other than employer letter. Can I submit boarding pass along with a covering letter explaining that there is no response from my previous employer?

3)I had travelled back to my home country to switch over from Tier 2 ICT to Tier 2 general visa .
The visa was issued on 14/12/2017 and I entered UK on 30th Dec 2017.How should I show the above absence? I am entering the date as 30/12/2017 for my entry date .Can I show the above absence under the question where it is asking about the period I lived outside UK?
