    Visa status changed



    When we applied a visa for my step son to join us here we were issued a settlement visa.

    After advice from this forum (especially the great Joebloggs) we we informed that as my wife already had her ILR, the wrong visa was issued.

    We wrote to the UKBA regarding changing the visa and we recieved his passport back today with his ILR in it.

    Joe, I owe you a pint or 2

    I got the same with your wife, they gave me ILR already.( I didnt notice my Visa though) A day after I receive my passport I flew straight away. I was held to the immigration for 1 hr in heathrow ( I wonder why) they do some verification and ask me if i already take life in the uk test and had been to uk before, i say no. So they explain to me that my visa is in wrong category instead of no recourse to public funds, they just stamp my passport NO recourse to public funds and told me that the validation of my visa is still the same as what in my visa. DO i still need to sort my visa though theres already a stamp there of no recourse to public funds?
