I am a legal permanent resident and would like to travel to the UK sometime this summer and I know that I will be needing a visa since i'm not yet a citizen. I have looked at the ukba website and I pretty much know what I will need to apply for the visa, except if I will need to buy my ticket before getting the visa because on the website they want an itinerary but i see no point buying a ticket when I dont have a visa yet.I have contacted them through email and they keep redirecting me to the website??? Has anyone applied for this visa? Did you need an itinerary. Thanks!

If I remember right, you might not need a visa if you stay only for 90 days.

You can't find any info's on their website?

Oh yeah, this makes sense then.

Unfortunately I don't know how this works. Sorry I'm not a big help :(

They ask for an itinerary, not a ticket.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
