Ok, you need to do a bit more research here on this forum, also at the IND website here: http://www.ind.homeoffice.gov.uk/ and Pete's website here http://www.british-filipino.com/ . I guarantee you will find all the answers.

To answer some of your questions:

You don't need a solicitor. The application forms are easy to fill in.
"No Recourse to Public Funds" this means you are not entitled to any benefits in the UK.

Also, are you a Filipina or Filipino? You don't make it clear.

You don't need a solicitor, you can do it yourself!

I also will sombody please tell me step by step,how to start?

Very easy to do it, just follow the ILR Notes

i am married to a british citi and have to boys,age 2 and 6 months old.
me wife dont work and on jobseeker allownce. Now am worried if it cause me problem for my ILR Appl.

You shouldn't getting the jobseekers allowance because you are in the 'no recourse to the public funds' status. You have to cancel that allowance you're receiving ASAP, you may have to pay it all back because you are not entitled to it! If you don't cancel this very soon you may get a problem when applying for your ILR visa.

also on my visa ,there is a immigration order stamp black ink .when i got to heathro airport.what is that mean

Maybe this is only the date you entered UK and If it is then this is normal and nothing to worry about.

also when we got married,i was asylm seeker,but after 2 years case faild and I removed back to AFG

. After half way through reading and replying to your questions, now I'm not sure If you are a Filipina or not! What is AFG?? Afghanistan??

ALSO DO I NEED TO PASS THAT CITIZEN SHIP course befor apply as i have my esol certi from the past.

Are you sure that ESOL Certificate you hold is still valid? The best option is to phone one of the test centre and ask them about it.

thanks from your pationt and my crap spelling.
looking forward to hear any idea soon .
thanks

reading your post, i take it your a failed assylum seeker from Afghanistan, and went back and applied for and was granted a spouse visa, which has nearly expired.

like others have already said, you need to search for ILR on the forum,

but you need 20 letters and documents addressed to you both for the last 2 years to show you both have been living together.

and i think you will need to either take the 'life in the uk' test or you will have needed to have attended a combined English language (ESOL) and citizenship classes course, was your ESOL a combined citizenship course???, but check with IND and if your visa is going to expire soon, i don't think you will have time for the ESOL course, and if you don't pass the test or do the course, you will have to apply for FLR instead of ILR..

i don't think so filipino people can get asylum seeker visa which i've never heard

also my both baby boys are born here in UK. do i have to add them as well in my application as they have british birth certifecate.

but my wife did as she also climed housing ,child,benifit.
would it affect my application.?
by the way yes I am from afghanistan,and hope do allow me to be part of this kind community and share our story.
have got no savings as there is no income only me wife get her job seeker allonce and claim child and housing benifet.

[diane]

hi again you do need to take the citizan test its part of the requirement for the visa as you have pc either down load settlement m or phone immigration to get them to send you it is straight forward to fill in its all the other stuff you need 2 years joint named utilities bank statements youll see you also have to apply 28 days b4 visa expires dont miss it or they can refuse for late application if you dont send enough doc evidence then they will write to you asking for more

[diane]

why apart of the wageslips ,wasnt there any more ducoment on his name to send,and why they think you dont have enugh evedince to prove that you been together.?
what else they want?
do they want photos or statments from the people of the area you live.?also have you paid £750?and when they refused the visa it means he will be illigle to live in UK.what is happening to that?
or they agree to give you an extended visa?also is it for every one that they dont have the right of apeal? or only in your case?why they do this ? this mean your family will became apart . is it right? i am confused....has he done something wrong while he was on his 2 years visa?
hope every thing get better. good luck

Nope you dont need one...all you need to do is to submit the requirements such as
Pass certificate in the LIFE IN THE UK test...have you done this yet?
without this you cant be able to apply for an ILR.
20 sets of each of the ff:
Any correspondence in your name like Tel.,Bills,credit card,Hospital appointment..ect.
while you can be able to sybmit this you can still apply for extension of your spouce visa.
