To apply for UK visa from a country, you need to be a resident (temporary or permanent) in that country. Your status cannot be "visitor".

Hello friends, I and my husband recently obtained COPR, and we're landing in Canada this month. My husband has been staying with me in UK on a visitor visa for the past few months. I have a job contract in UK for another year, and my husband would apply for a UK dependent visa from Canada...

I'm not sure if it is important, but just to be on the safe side: on the reference letter, if possible, have your scholarship amount mentioned as "salary" and not as "scholarship".

The reference letter, with the signature and stamp of your supervisor/HR/HOD/etc (in our case, it was the director of the PhD school) is the only mandatory document. The rest are just supporting documents for your own peace of mind.

We recently got PPR using NOC 4012. FWIW: - The duties mentioned in the reference letter closely mirrored those for the research assistant. No duties of a teaching assistant were mentioned. - Designation mentioned on the reference letter was "PhD candidate". - We attached salary slips of the...

Finally got PPR! AOR: 26 Sep 2017 Then, no update for almost 4 months Medical passed: 24 Jan 2018 RPRF: 25 Jan 2018 PPR: 22 Feb 2018 I know how frustrating this waiting period can be; after all, we had 0 update on my application for 4 months! So those who are waiting for a decision on their...

This has been very helpful! Thanks again, @BillHyatt

Thanks a lot for your suggestions, @BillHyatt We actually ordered GCMS notes in November, and got them last month. It has the UCI/Party ID number for my husband (primary applicant), but not for me (dependent). Is that normal? What could be the reason for it? It is difficult to parse through...

Hi @andy108 We submitted our PR application on 27 September in FSW-O category, and we have had no update yet - not even Medical Passed. My husband was the principal applicant in the application, and the work experience that he claimed was as a PhD student in Europe under NOC4012. He had...
