I've been a member of the forum for awhile but have only recently decided to take the plunge and go over to live and work in the UK. I was hoping I could get some questions answered here, since this forum seems to be a fount of information . I apologise if these questions have been asked before - I couldn't seem to find the answers.

First ...

I've just completed my ancestry visa application, paid for it and printed it, but for some reason when I tried to book my biometrics appointment, it wouldn't work! Then I checked my email and I have not received the confirmation message. After the trouble I've been through to get this far (and I've been through quite a bit!) this has me extremely frustrated! Any reassuring words of advice from anyone who's had similar problems would ...

Hi, if anyone can help please do!
My fiance and I are planning on being part of an organization called CAN-UK. where they send cooks, chefs, restaurant staff etc to the U.K to work.

My fiance's mother was born in the U.K., so does this make him able to get a citizenship and passport? he would like to have a dual citizenship, but all the sites are way too confusing. I don't want to go ...

Hi,

I am a Canadian moving to London for post graduate school. I will be applying for a Student Visa. Is my girlfriend (common-law) able to come with me as an unmarried partner and obtain her own visa and also be able to work? From the UK visa website it sounds like an unmarried partner may come if I am settled or plan to be settled in the UK, but I do not know if ...

I am soooo confused. I filled in an application online in February but didn't submit it, and now when I go back online to do it again it has changed ! It is now asking me all kinds of information about income, jobs etc. Does anyone know why this is?

I called Worldbridge who wasted my $12 very quickly - tried calling the UK, calling Ottawa and no one will answer ANY questions ! omg ...

Hello all, it's me again, with my ever-present line of questions that could simply be answered if anyone at the High Commission ever picked up the phone. I've started my visa process for the settlement visa - the details of why I want this are in a different thread - but am wondering about my chances due to the 'evidence of spouse's work/salary' requirement. At the current time, and potentially until we arrive in the ...

Hey, I'm a Canadian graduate student just finishing a two year Masters of the Arts in London. I'm looking into applying to the International Graduates Scheme and wondering if anyone has had some first hand experience?

Doesn't seem to have come up on these forums yet, so I thought I'd put it out there .

I know this is -positively ridiculous- to ask because there are so many posts on it, but at the moment, I'm stressing like crazy because I was just informed I have to move a month earlier than I had originally planned--taking away this next month of taking my time to have my application put together--and now have to apply for my visa TONIGHT or tomorrow night. So I really just don't want to screw up. ...

Canadian holders of H-1 visas who have reached or are soon to reach their maximum period of authorized stay (6 years), are in most cases required to reside one year abroad before returning to the U.S. in this visa category.

Canadians can avoid the foreign residency requirement by changing their H-1 visas to either TN-1, or E-2/E-1 Treaty Investor/trader visas.

With "Premium Processing", such changes can be accomplished within the United States in only 2 ...
