First time I saw this, I thought, wow fantastic and how original.

However, I have since learnt it wasn't so original.
Here is a link to the original wedding dance.
I'd still wanna wish them good luck though,
they look like a lovely couple.

@Vicjustice and others

Personally, i have problem with gays.

My bible teaches me in psalm 1:1-3(new king james version)
Blessed is the man
Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly,
Nor stands in the path of sinners,
Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;


On that note, i hands-off on this matter. Initially, i thought he was gay to "go through".

Bye.
Ako,

I thought you were much more enlightened than what you have just shown.
Are you honestly saying that you no longer wish to give the guy advice because he is gay? shocked shocked

And also because in your view he is ungodly.

Surely as a Christian you have been taught not to judge and also are you
not taught that let him who is without sin cast the first stone, or words to that effect.

I also wish to confess that I too am ungodly, since I am agnostic.

Your son or daughter can either register to become a British citizen via the route mentioned by Ilelobola or later apply to naturalise as a citizen. So if you are not ready to spend the next 10 years trying to get yourself an "Aduro", she can always come back anytime and stay however long she wants, and as soon as she is 18, can apply to naturalise, but the only condition for that is that she has to have lived in the UK for 5 years.

Once again, If you don't have time to wait till she is 10, take her back home and as soon as she is 18 years old, let her go to apply for a visa to come to UK, she does not need any immigration officer's permission by virtue of the fact that she was born here, her birth confers her a right of abode and she will also have the right to live and work in the UK without restrictions.
[i][/i]

BB,

There are no provisions as far as I know for anyone to register as a British Citizen in the way you have suggested. With the exception of what Ilelobola stated.

If she/he attempted to register once she has turned 18 she will be refused. As several people have stated including myself, being born here to non-British or non- settled parents after 31/12/82 confers no rights. In order to come to the UK such a person would have to apply for a visa and satisfy all the requirements to obtain one like anybody else who is subject to UK immigration control.

You cannot obtain a certificate of a right of abode by residence. Without such a certificate or nationality or obtaining ILR or NTLC her child will not be able to live in the UK without restriction.

If you still disagree with what I have stated then I would be very grateful if you could point me to the provisions in the rules which allow what you have suggested.

Are you saying he was not served with a refusal notice?
I find this hard to believe.

Could he be hiding the real reasons for his refusal from you?
TravelRe: Want To Give Birth In U.k Axis: Need Help On Hospital by VOR(m): 11:57pm On Mar 05, 2009
Lastpage,

I love your posts and your optimism. I have two kids myself and I admire and empathise with your determination to do the best for your child .

However, I am afraid what you have already been told is correct, a British birth certificate would give your child no more rights to anything in the UK than a child born in Nigeria. This has been the case since 31/12/1982.

As for your former colleague unless she was born on or before the date above I doubt the provenance of her story. Sounds like fabu to me. Yes there is a place in South East London called Lewisham.

Sorry to have rained on your parade but unless there is a fundamental and retrospective change to UK citizenship laws you are probably better off either having the baby in Nigeria or in the words of Funky: waka go American embassy.

Good luck.
TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries by VOR(m): 11:40pm On Mar 05, 2009
1. Do the reasons of the refusal appear on his passport? If not, where can I get the information? How can I know if there is a ban or not ?
2. Can he appeal that decision now that he is back in India?
3. Can he apply for any kind of other visas or work permits for the UK any longer on a genuine reason? If so, will the application will be influenced by his "records" and the fact that he has been refused entry once?
[i][/i]

In answer to your questions here goes;

1. The reasons for refusal do not appear on his passport. However, before removal he would have been given a notice which sets out why his visa was cancelled. If he was banned then it would have stated so in this notice.

2. This would depend on the type of cancellation of his visa/ refusal. A visa can generally be cancelled for two reasons, either change of purpose or change of circumstances. If it was a change of purpose cancellation then I am afraid there is no appeal against such a decision. If it was for a change of circumstances then he should have been given an in country right of appeal before removal to India. The only exception to this would be if he elected not to pursue his right of appeal in which circumstance he would have had to sign a disclaimer. Whether it was a change of purpose or circumstance cancellation would have been stated in the notice of cancellation.

3.Yes he certainly can apply for any other form of visa. Each application is supposed to be based on the merits of the application. But whether or not an application has merit is decided with regard to previous immigration history. Certainly your boyfriend's previous visa cancellation would be considered in a negative light. In my experience he would most likely be refused almost any other kind of visa. Sorry cry cry cry

Is your boyfriend Indian?

Hope this helps.

The working holiday scheme[WHV]  has now been abolished and replaced by
the youth mobility scheme. At the moment only a few countries nationals qualify
to take part as it is dependant on reciprocity with other countries and not being a
member of the commonwealth as the WWHV

I don't think Nigerians currently qualify but I stand to be corrected.

Typical woman, will never admit when she is wrong. smiley smiley smiley

Then why did you state; , People only get refused on "change of circumstances.

Change of circumstances and change of purpose are separate and distinct grounds for
the cancellation of a visa and are NOT interchangeable. If the wrong ground is used then
the Immigration Officer leaves himself/herself open to having the refusal decision challenged
and possibly nullified.

I'm surprised you appear not to be aware of this. shocked.

@ OP

Do you intend to appeal? What ground was the refusal based on? People only get refused on "change of circumstances" ground, which is an umbrella term for anything goes
Not correct, people can also get refused on "change of purpose" grounds for which there is no right of appeal at all.
Many people who are refused on change of circumstances grounds elect to forgo their in-country right of
appeal because they may be detained in a detention centre pending the appeal or at least the receipt of a
valid appeal.

Hello , I will tell you the whole truth and is better you follow my statement if not , you will find it difficult to understand yourself, firstly forget about you need nsk passport because that very passport can bring more problem and confussion to your life , let’s get started , the nsk passport is not a document or passport you can use to travel , I received my passport ealy january and I look for a every way to travel with it but no way , and then come across Ibra travel agency and they told me to apply for ECC (European Citizenship card which I did and spent much money , and when I receved the card I travelled out from Nigeria to my brother in Cambodia with my nigeria passport and intend to travel using nsk passport and the ecc to germany , when I get to frankfurt I almost go to jail , I was deported back to Nigeria , I contacted Ibra agency and I explained the whole things for them , I was told that it seems I can't defend the ECC , therefore they told me to apply for just World passport and abardon nsk passport , ecc, eu card and I firstly search for the information about world passport over the net and I got the information , I decided to send the application by myself to the place off isuing in washington DC and I sent money , but later I know that I made it all wrong as the passport did not come and my money was not refunded , I was told some letter must be presenting that I’m currently facing some problem and stampped by UN and I contact Ibra to apply for world passport and the money I spent is not even up to money I spent to get the ECC , and I received my world passport and there is International Exit permit visa on the passport for me and Permit access visa from Ibra travel agency , I left Nigeria without any problem from Muritala Muhammed to Lisbon and from Lisbon to Amin in france , I never encounter any problem using my world passport , Excuse me all , please just forget about NSK PASSPORT , it is all about wasting money , just contact ibratravel@ibra.cc and tell them you need world passport , they are very much honesty , they will get you agent from your country to help , they process it with just 2 weeks the passport is out , don't waste your money , NSK Passport is not sure for you to use to travel abroad ,

You my friend are nothing but a scam merchant, a 419 AGENT. The world passport is just as fraudulent as the NSK passport and is recognised nowhere in the world.

If anyone is thinking about sending money to obtain this spurious document I would advise you not to. It is not worth
the paper it is printed on. A word is enough for the wise.

On the basis of what you have written I cannot see there is a lot
more you can do to try and get your visa for this academic session.
Again,without having read the refusal notices, they do appear to be
particularly unfair and unjust.

I think the only avenue open to you is to appeal and look towards
next academic session.

BTW I hope your uncle hasn't sponsored a few other people in the past.

@Vicjustice

You are bookish like VOR. grin


##### = One of the reason why Victor has to tell us whether even the fake one came from Tax office. I knew fake remains fake but if the document DID emanate from Tax office, then Yetunde has a case.

# If we can confirm that the document emanate from Tax office even if the figures are not right, we can still do something #
Ako,

I am afraid I beg to differ with you.

Whether the doc came from the tax office or not, it is still a false document and Yetti should have known or it
would have been reasonable to expect her to know that the document may well be false. She paid 10k for the
doc after negotiating the figure down from 12k. Na so govt. business is conducted? Did she receive an official receipt
for the payment? My guess is she didn't.

The document may well be a genuine one from the tax office, but it has been improperly issued and the ECO would
consider that to be no different than presenting a totally counterfeit document. For arguments sake, suppose Viko had a contact in the British High Commission and he told Yetti he could help her to get the visa if  Yetti gave him money in those circumstances it is no different than paying this Viko person money to obtain the TC rather than go through official channels.

Yetti

You say you have learnt your lesson. I hope you have. What you did was wrong as you have admitted.
Really and truly, and speaking as someone who has, in the past, worked in the British Immigration system
it is highly unlikely you will be granted a visa if you re-apply immediately, even with a genuine TC. If you apply
at some time in the future you will have to declare your refusal and given the 10 year ban rule that too is
unlikely. Were you notified of the ban?

I would strongly suggest you look elsewhere to study abroad if that is your dream.

Good luck.

I have been following your travails with some interest.

As Ako said, the BHC will definitely not forget your attempt
to use a false document to procur a visa. In fact I can tell
you categorically that anyone who uses deception or forged/false
documents to try and get a visa is banned from applying for a further
visa for a minimum of ten years.

Personally I'd forget about trying to further your education in the UK.
