FLR(O) Discretionary Leave waiting times ..??

This is for people who have been granted only 30 months leave to remain even though they have children who are British. That is being challenged in court for a ILR instead of 30 months LTR.

30 months leave to remain arguably breach of S.55 BCIA 2009. Permission to apply for judicial review granted

@hatchsead thanks for this. It is only reasonable the HO should be giving ILR to parrents of BC. Well I can not remember the last time HO was reasonable.

Can anybody share court hearing experience please, I mean the environment. Do 12-13 year old children need to attend the hearing for the children's case?
Thank you. Go bless you all.

Hello @all, I hope all is well. I pray that God gives us all our freedom from the HO.

@ congratulations!! to all those who have been granted and to those who are waiting for decisions, know that our day is around the corner. Very soon our worry will turn into tears of joy and laughter.

@naba,its upto you to decide but I will take the kids with me to the hearing if i was you. Its good for the Judge to put a face to the name and case in front of him. At my hearing the Judge looked at me a couple of times when he was speaking. people tend to react to things differently when they are looking at it rather than speaking about it without seeing it. When taking the kids with you explain to them what is going to happen and ask them to be quiet and make sure that you guys are siting where the Judge can see you. For me I sat right in front of him and thanks for the kind word and I will try to relax.
Good Luck.

Thank you hun. This is helpful. God bless.

I like your testimony - Congrats (IRIFMOIJN)

Hi
The FLR FP form is an application form for leave to remain in the UK on the basis of article 8 of Human Rights. There are 2 elements to article 8 namely family life and private life. In your case applying as a parent of a BC child falls under family life while private life relates to ties or roots you have established in the UK e.g friends, career, work in the community, how long you have been here etc.
Now, my advise is that you detailed both your family life and private life(i.e.section 9) as they will both strengthened your case. If you don't detailed it now and your case goes to appeal (hopefully not) the HO will use it against you and besides the decision maker may not have a clear picture of your life if you omit it. The more you can demonstrate that you have stronger ties in the UK than your home country the better for you.

All the best.

Rockefeller thank you so much for your reply that helps a lot and makes sense, very much appreciated thanks again. I think H.O is trying to confuse us a bit with this form thanks again.

I came to the United Kingdom at the age of thirteen 11 years ago and since I have been in this country, my brother who is a British national has been the one looking after my welfare and also the one providing me with an accommodation as we both live together with his wife and children (all british) as I don't have a father.
However, since I have been here, I have been able to attend high school, sixth form, college and I obtained my university degree.
Since I have been in the United Kingdom, I have never taken any form of benefits neither have I pertained in any form of crime.
Having lived here for 11 years I have been able to develop family ties in this country as all my close relatives including my mum, brother, my sister, my in laws, nieces, nephews, cousins, aunties and uncles are all settled here.
Although my mum is not settled here at the moment, though she used to have an indefinite stay which she lost and she was a victim of identity fraud and recently the judge granted her permission for judicial review which she is waiting for a court hearing date. In addition to the family ties that I have with this country, I also have social and cultural ties here in the UK as all my friends are all here as I have spent most of my teen years here and my early adult life which I cannot imagine life without them as they have all been there to support me morally, spiritually, physically, mentally, academically etc
In January, I applied for a leave to remain in the UK with many support letters from my family members but the application got refused as the home office are claiming I still have relatives back home which is not true. They also claim that all the relatives I claim to have in UK including my brother, sister, inlaws, uncles, aunties, nieces, nephews, cousins etc are not classified as having a family life in the UK. I'm not married, I'm just a young adult of 24 and those are the people have known as my family. I wasn't given a right of appeal as well. Please can anyone help me out here on what I need to do. Thanks

Welcome Bsmith13,

Wow!!! This is really interesting. I can tell you you categorically a lot of people that applied via this route even with residency longer than yours were refused last year and still waiting for their day in court. My case as well under the same route which I applied since December 2012 based on exactly yours with family all here, I am still waiting on a decision till date.

Since you came in as a minor and still under 25, I will suggest you file a PAP immediately with the hope of finally going for JR (Judicial Review) to at least get the enforcement team off your back. You need your day in court for this. I really have a feeling this case was not looked into properly. What has your solicitor suggested to you?

@Dapsonlee

Thanks for replying me, I can imagine how you feel putting an application in since 2012 without any response.

My application only took exactly a month. Yeah everyone have been speaking to regarding this issue all told me the decision was defective and biased.
A barrister suggested to me to do a reconsideration or try and obtain a right of appeal which is difficult to do.
Another suggested I go for JR and initially my solicitor suggested a JR too because there's no one I can go back to as all my peeps are here. But most of this solicitors are all unreliable all they do is to take our money that's why I've suggested to seek for an advice on this forum.

@bsmith13
I personally think you should go for the JR .

@bsmith13, hello and welcome to the forum. I'm in the same situation as you and I went for JR which got refused at a paper hearing but at the oral hearing the HO have asked for some time to reconsider my application and if they still refuse my application, they will give me right of appeal.
My advice to you will be the same as dapsonlee and Ikeron have suggested, start with JR and don't waste any time on it.

@Elastep and @Ikeron

Thanks for replying me.

But do you think I have any merit to my case by going for a JR.

@Elastep, at your oral hearing, did the judge grant you permission to go ahead with JR. Please could you please shed more light on this. Thanks

bsmith, welcome.

The others have given you the best advice, you need to kick start the JR process. You definitely have a strong case IMO, don't be dismayed or doubtful. Either way, you should be given an in country appeal if it fails.

All the best.

@bsmith13, I think that you case is very strong from what I have read. They should have considered your case as you are under 25years of age and have spent half of your life in the UK. I think that this is one of the basis of application on privet life but not sure if the rule have changed. please guys any input is welcomed. Thanks.
NO, permission have not been given yet. The Judge wanted to give the HO the oportunity for my case to be sorted out of court, because they told the Judge at my oral hearing that they where not aware of my past immigration history and that they require some time to reconsider my case and they acepted that if they refuse me again they will give me right of appeal.
My case is still at court as my last hearing date for this month was postponed, due to HO asking for more time to look at my case, so noting can be done yet as I'm waiting for HO reply.
I would like to see if they will keep to their word and if not, a hearing date will be alocated to me where I'm sure that Permission to proceed for JR will be given.

Hello everyone

Congrats to those who have been granted leave to remain and I wish strength and succour to all bro and sis who have been refused or waiting eagerly for their stay.

I was not going to share this small progress at least for now but I thought it would be unfair to those who may receive encouragement from my story given that this forum has been a great source of rare inspiration and vigour to me in the last 20 months or so.

Here is my story. In August 2012 after the 9 July 2012 changes to family immigration rules I put in FLR O application for my self, wife and then 7 year old son under the parent of a child in the UK route.

Our immigration history is that I came here in 2002 as a visitor but overstayed but bravely in 2008 I left the UK and travelled to my home country in order to regularise my stay. I left the UK on faith and thankfully after nearly 3 months and two entry clearance applications I was allowed to come back as a dependant to my wife who had been granted five years work permit that would have qualified us for ILR in July 2013 but unfortunately she lost the job in 2009 and we have had to change course by staying here through student route.

My wife came here in March 2004 and have remained here lawfully since (she is currently applying for ILR under the LR route). Our two sons were born in the UK and now aged nine and seven. We have owned our home since December 2008.

Our FLR O application was refused in May 2013 because each of us do not have a sole responsibility of our son. I was initially denied an appeal which was later granted by an immigration judge.

In February 2014, our appeal was heard. The HO Presenting Officer though conceded that they have got the immigration rules wrong in our case tried her best to convince the judge that we could continue our family life in my home country by selling our house and use the proceeds to rent accommodation back home and use the remnants to put our children in private schools there. She argued that the children would adapt easily by making new friends. She further argued that career prospects for me and wife is just as good back home as it can be in the UK.

However, God prevailed for us and the judge allowed our appeals both under the immigration rules and article 8. For those of you that applied under the 7 year rule between July 2012 and 12 December 2012, the rule then did not include demonstrating that it was “unreasonable for the child to leave the UK”. This condition was added on December 13 2012 and there was a transitional provision that application submitted up-to 12 December 2012 should be considered under the rules subsisting pre 13 December 2012. The HO have been deciding all applications based on the amended rule from 13 December 2012.

Please seek advice if this is relevant to your case and it may make a different.

All thanks goes to everyone on this forum for sharing your lives with one and other but I would like to specially thank Nilesmarques for posting few decided unpublished upper tribunal cases as two of those cases were pivotal to our success. Thank you my friend. I wish everyone best of luck.

Hi everyone

I have applied ILR on basis of 10 years rule on OCT 2012 still waiting for decision. My solicitor applied for my family leave on flro form , Home office refused with right of appeal, First tier judge allowed appeal, now my family received visa just our solicitor informed us today. I have question here if I will get ILR still my family can apply ILR on basis of dependent because they were tier 1 dependent last four years and going to complete ten year next year too. A bit confusing situation now they are on DLR on basis of 7 year child / family / private life.
Your views and discussion will be great.

Please keep me in your prayers .

@elastep

I've not spent half of my life here but on the bother line as it's short with 1year and 6 months though I'm under 25 at the moment but by the time I spend half of my life here I will be over 25 then.

@thisyear. Thank you for the advice.

HI Amjad can u please provide some information regarding the seven year child / family/ private life. I mean which types supporting documents u submitted with application related to seven year child.

thanks and regards

Hello everyone,

I have been a secret readerof this forum and it has helped me a lot, today I come to you with a deja vu scenario.
Few days ago my zambrano application was refused , I was kind of prepared for it and even though they gave me right of appeal I want to put in a FLRFP application .
I just need your opinion on the documents I'm sending :
-Nhs appointments letters for my child
-child's british passport
-nursery invoices addressed to me
-letter from nursery advising that they know me as the sole carer
-residence order(sole)
-Gp letter adv that we are both registered there
-bank statements
-contract of employment
-letter from my employer saying I passed my probation period
-photos
-nhs appointment letters for me
-contents insurance letter
-pay slips
Now my problem is the tenancy agreement , you see my baby and I are living with family friends , they took us in when we had no where to go . The house is a four bedrooms townhouse where my child and I have the two rooms upstairs with a shower room and my friend and her husband have the rooms dowstairs , the living room and the main bathroom. We only share the cooking area . I was not paying any rent when we moved but since I have been working I have asked them to tell me how much they will charge me so for the two rooms and shower I pay £95 each week?They are also tenants in that house I have never met the landlord just heard his voice 2 or 3 times since we moved in , my child and I have been leaving there for 15 months, my friend and her husband have given me a tenancy agreement with details of how much I pay per week and the accommodation , I really do not feel comfortable sending this to UKBA because I feel like they are not the landlord and UKBA might do checks and find out that they are just tenants sort of subletting.Even though I'm currently working I do not have a lump sum to pay for a deposit for a flat .
I'm so worried about this and do not know what to do . Can you please advice if it will be ok for me to use this tenancy agreement .
your opinions will be greatly appreciated. Sorry for the long post. Thank you
