Register with your local doctor/dentist
Follow these links:-
How do I register with a GP? (http://www.nhs.uk/chq/Pages/1095.aspx?CategoryID=68&SubCategoryID=158)
How to find an NHS dentist? (http://www.nhs.uk/NHSEngland/AboutNHSservices/dentists/Pages/find-an-NHS-dentist.aspx)


Add your name to your husband's Council Tax Bill (this will provide address ID to open bank account, applying for credt, applying for FLR etc.)

Add your name to your husband's utility bills (this will provide address ID to open bank account, applying for credt, applying for FLR etc.)

Apply for a National Insurance Number
Follow this link:-
Get a National Insurance number (https://www.gov.uk/apply-national-insurance-number)

Get a bank account (probably only a 'basic' bank account as you will have no credit history)

Consider studying and passing the new Life in UK Test (you need to pass this before applying for ILR)
Always easier to study and pass before while you have time free before you start working.

Here are some other very useful links to research and explore:-

Here is a pretty good general website called Just arrived in UK (http://www.myukinfo.com/en/just-arrived-in-the-uk)
If you click on that link you'll also see you can select different languages including Filipino

The very best website for all issues connected with the UK Government Departments etc is here called GOV.UK (https://www.gov.uk/)
You'll find a complete range of information and services. Very useful.

You'll need to be familiar with the Provision of UK Health services within the NHS. Their website is here called NHS Choices (http://www.nhs.uk/Pages/HomePage.aspx)

... and also what we need to provide for FLR? thank uuuuu :biggrin:

Please review the FLR(M) form here (http://www.ind.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/applicationforms/flr/formflrm1020091.pdf)

and

the FLR(M) Guidance here (http://www.ind.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/applicationforms/flr/guideflrm1020091.pdf)

In principle, if you recently arrived here on a Fiancee Visa then you'll find the requirements to be submitted for FLR(M) are pretty much the same.

I think you can get NI number and a bank account only after you have your FLR(M). :Erm:

As long as you have FLR(M) you are allowed to work.
You should apply for a National Insurance number as soon as you have FLR(M).
There may be some delay and you may be invited to attend an interview, but in principle you are allowed to start work without one, in which case you'll need to secure one pretty quick.
