MsLane:
I got this email now.

Any idea what it means?


Thank you for applying for a UK visa. Your visa application has been received and is under consideration. We aim to process non settlement applications within 15 working days (unless you have opted for the Priority Visa service), and settlement applications within 120 working days.

Unfortunately, the processing of your application has not been straightforward and we will be unable to decide your application within our customer service targets. We are continuing to work on your application and aim to make a decision as soon as possible.

We will write to you again if there is any change to this. Please do not attend the Visa Application Centre until you have been advised that your application has been decided and that your passport is ready for collection.

Kind Regards,

UK Decision Making Centre

Visa alert!
Dependant for collection mail yesterday, Brp dropped today.
Biometrics: 3rd Feb, only MA did priority.
Feb 7th additional doc requested MA and one child
Feb 8 NSF mail to wife, no additional doc.
Submitted additional documents for MA and child 15th Feb
24th April MA got VISA.
After 2 paid mails after 2 weeks they replied with additional documents for wife March 28th.
Though she was ban 2008 for fake document, also her passport used then had fake DoB.
(As at 2008 she and her brother wanted to go for her sister graduation, the IV came in late so they went to design it online not knowing they would know it's fake. In the process their application got ban).
Note: while filling the application for 2023 we indicated that he was ban before, but didn't know the first passport DoB was wrong.
April 20th..2nd additional documents.
Submitted 21st.
April 28th, worksanddocuments replied that I didn't not send attachment so I replied back with same email and attachment.
May 4, collection email.
May 5 Brp mail.

When it's your time, it's your time. So many issues with wife's application but God saw us through. They requested for additional documents twice and we replied them.
But we thank God after all hurdles, midnight prayers, So many church prayers, mountains prayers and all.
At a point I tay for my wife. she won kill herself o. My people prayers no dey waste o I now see the essence. I didn't have issues at the POE, no much questions, nothing nothing.
My people God did it o. Everyone expecting theirs too please keep the hopes high. God will do it for you too.
Thanks so much everyone, I got to know about the Skilled Worker/ Health Care thread after submitting my application and your answers really help me.

What are the ages of the children?

If they are minors you do need to proof how u are goin to cater for them

But why can't u add spouse even if he is not goin to be on the safe side

Drey1:


Why husband no wan join apply together. ? It makes the application looks real and devoid of hiccups or suspicion.

DoDirtsLikeWorm:


I read somewhere here that in a case of getting Citizenship, they might not give to your children until the 2 parents have all gotten theirs?
Someone can flash more light If I am correct?

Leapp:


The 2 parents must be present for citizenship ?

Leapp:



Minors .

If I add spouse and he gets the visa but is not present at point of entry, wont the immigration ask about that at the point of entry?

Osa4:



That can always be explained at point of entry as plans changes .... na you go hear am by urself if ur kids are young especially if u don't have relatives friends or a place to stay

DoDirtsLikeWorm:


They won't; they needs the labour, and the only people that can guarantee them steady supplies is India, Nigeria, some Ghanaians & Philippines them.

Why do U think Nigeria remained a zoo & being pressured by IMF to keep devaluing our currency?

DoDirtsLikeWorm:
Not present. If one gets and the other have not gotten, the children cannot get.
It is stated somewhere in the HO site.
E.g: If a wife gets her visa & went with their kids and the husband maybe applies later after some months or year(s), after the first 5years the wife can apply for ILR-²- CITIZENSHIP, but the children would have to wait for the father to qualify and gets his own citizenship before they the children can be given.

semmyk:
PS: DoDirtsLikeWorm is not far off. The caseworker will consider a number of things, part of which are:
- has the children spend the required period: in the scenario given, yes
- Is the one parent eligible: in this instance, yes
- Does this one parent has full custody: in this instance, not so
- Is the other parent a dependant and applying for ILR along with the children: if so, process application
- Is the other parent a dependant and in the UK: if yes, ILR application can be considered for the children
NB: the ILR uses the wordings parents, one parent and both parents to differentiate or place emphasis

PS: in the ordinary sense, citizenship require (existing) ILR. Invariably, ILR comes first, after which, citizenship can be applied for when conditions are met. So, yes ILR-²-CITIZENSHIP: ILR towards citizenship. Many apply as such. Why do double process when 2-in-1 is available!

For noting: extract from caseworker guidance (Registering children as British citizens) per Immigration Act 1981 (as amended)
Parent applying for citizenship
If a parent is applying for citizenship, and has included a child’s application with their application, the child may be entitled to registration under one of the previous entitlement provisions, even if the parent’s application is refused.

Parent applying for indefinite leave to remain or confirmation of permanent residence
It is possible that a parent may apply for indefinite leave to remain (ILR) either at the same time as applying for the registration of a child or before an application has been decided. In these circumstances, the parent’s application for ILR must be determined first as the outcome could affect the child’s registration application.
