You forgot to add that it is a criminal offence to overstay and they may be subjected to a monetary fine, jail time, or both. They also risk being detained and deported from the UK in addition to a ban.

But I heard the applicant is the one to determine the span of time which would make 5 years... Like someone can decide to discount the first few months in a case where employers were switched etc... how true pls?

derbylicious:
Happy new year.
Kindly recommend resources (app &/or website) for a successful life in the UK test prep please.

Should I declare driving fines in PSW application?

Because they asked about driving offences and penalties

ReesheesuKnack:
Honestly speaking, I think this is too much for a simple issue.
OP has not paid, the application hasn’t even be made yet.
Isn’t it a better thing for OP to simply create a new application? Enter everything correctly and avoid any long (unnecessary) grammar?

Ibro2021:
Thanks for the feedback.

Under what section will I be uploading this please?

I've done the declaration part so all that's left is IHS + app fee payment and evidence upload.

Ibro2021:
My people. I greet una.

I'm reviewing my psw application and discovered that I entered passport details (including issue and expiry dates) where national identity card was required.

I've also done the declaration part so can't edit any longer. All that's left is to make payment for IHS and application.

What are my options, please? Is this error fatal, and do I have to start another application from scratch?

Thanks.

Viruses:
Thanks alot, God bless you.

I'm even suspecting Zahra29, she might be working for HO

Zahra29:
Good point, and I had to double check to be sure, but it appears there is no distinction between applying in or out of country - the requirements are the same.

The main requirements for a UK Spouse visa application under a 10-year route are as follows:
Both, you and your partner must be 18 or over;
You need to prove that your relationship is genuine;
You intend to live together permanently in the UK;
You must meet the requirement of adequate accommodation;[/b]
The applicant must meet the suitability criteria as set out in Appendix FM of the Immigration Rules.


There are exception pathways in the application process that could lead to a 10 yr route decision instead of a refusal.

Zahra29:
But not impossible. There are exceptions - a British citizen who is not able to meet the new income threshold can still bring their partner over, just on a 10 yr route, as is currently the case

ehizario2012:
I would appreciate if you shed more light on practical steps to this 10 year route... Thanks

Thewritingnerd:
I mean, even that is worth doing 🤣, make prospective employee too dey say “please go and check section kinikan of the kinikan of the UK work policy that says kinikan kinikan, I meet such requirements and having passed my interview, might I ask that you kindly reconsider your decision based on this information?”

The worst they’ll say is still a no or a “we’ll get back to you” , even people in top positions aren’t privy to updated or new information. All I have to do is be very certain of what I’m saying, I’ll tussle that job to the lasttt 🤣. We die here oh 😂🫠

Times are tough

Thewritingnerd:
So I saw this ig video about “new entrants” into the workforce that are already in the UK i.e Int’l students, only have to meet 70% of the new salary requirements,

How true is this? 🤔

Goke7:
Thank God for Aunty Suella, she really did a wonderful job we should all be proud of!

We never see anything at all!

Zahra29:
Yes, it's crazy. I remember the uproar when they implemented the £18,600 threshold for the first time 10 years ago. So many British and settled families were affected, this new threshold is something else tbh.

Zahra29:
Breaking: James Cleverly announces new five-point plan on migration
James Cleverly said the public are “understandably worried” about housing, GP appointments and other public services when communities are “growing quickly in numbers”.

The Home Secretary went on to announce a five-point plan:

Stopping overseas care workers from bringing family dependents
Increasing the skilled worker earning threshold by a third, to £38,700 from next spring
Scrapping cut-price shortage labour from overseas by reforming the shortage occupation list
Raising the minimum income for family visas to the same threshold as skilled workers (£38,700)
Reviewing the graduate route “to prevent abuse” and protect the quality of the university sector

Viruses:
Have you paid the rent?

Why not just pay the rent and move on. You may have a case but is it worth fighting?

It's now seeming you want to abuse the rights you have as a tenant because you promised to pay in a few days time and it's past few days.

I mean put yourself in her shoes, what excuse will you give to your lender if they want to reposes the house because of missed payment arising from tenant not paying?

segunzolawalez:
Guys, I need your help.
My car was seized yesterday by police here in the UK for driving unaccompanied with a provisional license. Where and how do I get impound lnsurance for provisional drivers license??

Goke7:
I've heard about people going for biometrics appointments for visa extension and renewal and not being allowed to proceed because of the absence of the dependant, the problem is that once you indicate the dependant in the application, the person needs to show up, ok even if the dependant is not going to be included in the application, what will the applicant state as the reason of not including the applicant!

Maybe those who have done such an application should provide the answer, Am only speaking from the experience of others close to me

bigtt76:
[b]Yes but I thought its optiona[/b]l to formally apply for a dependent despite adding him or her to the application?

I'm asking this because of the perceived restrictions on additional work time while on the skilled worker visa and also setting up a business compared to the post study work visa which kind of allow all of these without restrictions.

Thanks for your response though.

Goke7:
I doubt because since they were both on an initial visa which is student visa, any new application they make, as they are filling the form either the psw or skill worker, the system will ask about the dependant.

Sonniajude:
Yeah the university is aware but the resit is next year April and that will lead to visa extension as the course will be ending in 2026 due to the resit

ALL GLORY TO THE ALMIGHTY GOD.
I am still basking in so much 🤩 and to those still awaiting their visas I pray it comes through soon and do not give up.

I'm uncertain if he can switch back to a graduate visa because we're currently on Tier 2. He made this change last year when he secured a 1-year lecturing contract.

dhummystecah:
Hello everyone,

Here's where I could use some help. I am in the UK on a dependent visa, and the visa is set to expire in January. Unfortunately, my husband, who has recently completed his PhD in chemical engineering, has been facing challenges in securing employment due to companies requiring prior experience. Endorsement wasn't approved for global talent.

ThatgirlO:
Good afternoon house,
I applied for a student visa on the 8th of august 2023 and it seems like I am the only one still waiting for my visa outcome. Although my resumption deadline was 16th of October but my university had to defer my admission and update my CAs to the next intake which is 20th of November. My visa application is still pending, this week is going to make it the 12th week since I submitted. It seems everyone has gotten their visas and others that haven’t have withdrawn their application and planning to reapply for January intake. I was lucky that my course has a November intake but right now I feel alone and frustrated, I am just waiting. I have done 5 paid calls, I have escalated twice, the last escalation was last week Thursday and the last paid call was done yesterday. I was told I cannot escalate this week since the last escalation was just last week. I am really really worried and I want to know if there is any other way I can reach the home office so that I can get my decision on time. This delay is causing me a lot of distress physically, health wise and financially, please I will appreciate any help or suggestions. Thank you, gurus in the house please help

jum33:
Please after capturing how long does it take get the renewed passport back from london passport office

Aafulenu:
I have tried searching for this, and I apologise if this has been addressed before.

My spouse and I have just applied to switch from the student visa to a skilled worker visa. We are yet to do this for the kids (3) and their current visa expires at the end of October.
How would this affect them if we are unable to make an application before their current visa ends?

yolkman20:
Thanks for this,

People should learn to always research and apply common sense.

If the salad master pots are SO FANTASTIC as they claim, why are they not sold online, in shops or even amazon ??

They perpuate their scam by this referral/direct sales method.

They claim their pots prevent cancer, etc.

I remember looking up the website years ago and when I saw their CEO with a full blooded nigerian name i knew they were up to no good.

https://saladmaster.com/executive-bios#:~:text=Ayo%20Olaseinde%20is%20a%20self,sales%20journey%20in%20January%201982.

They actually make "forever living" sales agents look lie saints.

I don't even know which is upsetting me the most - the price of the pots or the fact that his wife took a finance deal with full interest to buy them.
