@ Khan1980
I did receive the 2nd email and yes it is stated at the end that you will be notified of the outcome of your application in writing.
I received this email on 18.05.2015 and the decision was made on 19.05.2015. I did receive the approval on 21.05.2015.

So you don't need to worry. As this was the final email from HO, and decision comes in writing along documents. Therefore, they let you know that you will be notified by writing. I hope you are not far now, probably in next or following week you will get your decision. Good Luck[/quote]

Thanks Springfield...

Thanks for confirming and hopefully I will have some good news next week Inshahallh. Another Bank Holiday making my wait bit more longer I guess. Have you provided HO Pre Paid Signed Envelope for document return????

Hello, I would really appreciate if someone could please help me and give me some advise.

I have a court case pending which is on 30/06/2015, I have completed 10 years residency in March 2015 and have sent my application for long term residency under 10 years.

I have received a letter from the home office today which states the following:

Letter from Home office:

I write regarding the completed application from you have submitted for consideration to the Home office on 26/03/2015 for leave to remain on the basis of 10 yr long residence.
you already have an outstanding appeal against the secretary of state's decision to refuse your application for leave to remain as a Outside the rules Comp. Grounds - LTR(E). You are restricted from making a fresh application whilst your appeal is outstanding in accordance with Section 3c of the immigration Act 1971(as submitted by section 118 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002).
You may apply to the Asylum and Immigration Tribunal to have your application for leave to remain Outside the Rules Comp. Grounds - LTR (E) to be treated as a variation of your grounds of appeal. To this end, your documents have been retained on the Home Office file as they may be considered as part of your existing appeal.
A full refund of your fee for 10 yr Long Residence Application will follow.


Can someone please advise me what I should do next? I already spent a lot of money with solicitors and do not have any money left. I cannot afford to pay a solicitor. Can I go to the court on my own, if yes what documents do I need to take with me, and will they consider my year long term residency.

Thank you

One of my friend told me today - 10 Years Long Residence visa category will be removed soon, apparently within couple of months !
Anyone heard anything about this ? I hope it's just rumour as after spending 9 years no one wants to hear this kind of news !

Don't worry brother


It will make a plus point in front if judge that you have applied ILR


Now homeoffice will consider your ILR as additional grounds of appeal ...

I will suggest may be hard for you but better hire a good barrister who can put your points that judge consider your additional grounds



Don't worry even if appeal dismiss you can apply after it in one day service



Can you throw some light that when did you give biometric which date ?
Did they send you any email ? That it is under consideraion ????


Please throw some light so we can guide you more

Right I have some queries regarding dependent visas now, wonder if this is the right thread though :roll:
(I tried to find a similar one in family members section but not sure! )

1) I've noted on this forum that there is a 18k earnings requirement for dependants
has this GOT to be earnings? won't savings suffice? :shock:

2) then how about partners not living in the UK now (but did before)?
I think its unfair to ask this earnings from every one as there are plenty people who don't work too :roll:

3) does anybody know which application form it'd be when applying from overseas please?

4) how would we know if it'd be the 5 year or 10 year rule for ILR for dependant after that?
do they initially give 5?

I know nothing like! :oops: so please share any experiences/ knowledge.
Would really appreciate any info. Thanks heaps!

This thread is not for u but still i answer your questions. Can moderator move this topic to flr m thread please?

1) I've noted on this forum that there is a 18k earnings requirement for dependants
has this GOT to be earnings? won't savings suffice? :shock:

Earning should be £18600

or savings should be £62500

2) then how about partners not living in the UK now (but did before)?
I think its unfair to ask this earnings from every one as there are plenty people who don't work too :roll:

Same conditions to meet £18600. People who dont work and claim banefits can't sponsor anybody from abroad.

3) does anybody know which application form it'd be when applying from overseas please?

Apply online here
https://www.visa4uk.fco.gov.uk

4) how would we know if it'd be the 5 year or 10 year rule for ILR for dependant after that?

intially 2.5 years than 2.5 years extension. ILR after 5 years

I know nothing like! :oops: so please share any experiences/ knowledge.

I am currently on T1 work permit, will be qualify for 10 years long residency in AUG. My work permit does not end until 2017. My questions are as follows and i would very greatful if any of you could help me with these questions:

1. Could I apply PR in AUG when my 10 years long residency period is qualified, though my current work permit ends in 2017. and if i don't get the settlement would i loose my work permit too?
2. " the 28 days before completing qualifying period " condition, does this counts as of the day when my first visa was valid or the date of entrance in the country.
3. has anyone tried to request your own DATA from the UK visa and Immigration office? if so how long did it take for you to get the data back?


Thank you all millions in advance !

Hi Mate

1. The current visa will not get affected if something goes wrong technically, but for some reason they found deception then no guarantee

2. if you arrive within 90 days of EC date than 28 days count backwards from Aug 2015

3. I haven't ordered one but it will take good 15 to 20 working days.

Thanks

You shouldn't have any trouble as long as you have all the passport and visa stamps from Day 1.

Hi Gurus

Please help!!!!

If a person(has spouse as tier 1 dependent) ILR is due and he has two choices for ILR. One is tier 1 general

and other is 10 year long residency.

Tier 1 is expiring first but he is not on 100% accurate points and there is also

39 days gap for completing 10 years of stay in UK.

Is is good idea to move to student visa from tier 1 general before tier 1
expiry and apply ILR on 10 years bases?

if he moves to student visa then what will happen with his spouse visa who is on tier 1 dependent.

Hi All,

Was just doing some search on google and this forum seems to be a den for some immigration gurus...

I need some help and any advice opinion would be highly appreciated.

I am planning to apply for ILR, based on long stay (10 Yrs), started filling in the form and noticed that on a Set(LR) form Section E3 asks if you had any "Civil Judgements" aginst you or any "Civil Penalty" under the UK immigration Acts?

Now i have found out some discussions around but they are mainly about getting FPN for speeding or using phone related issues..

what i am confused at is that "I had two parking related fines (Not sure if they are called FPN ?), one back in 2008 sometime and one in 2013 probably, Although i paid them on time but i dont have any documents or details about these anymore .. I just know that the first one was issued by the Borough of Westminster and the other one from Borough of Barnet ...

Then i filed my personal tax return late this year (It was due at the end of January'15 but i submitted it at the end of Feb'15 after getting a £100 late penalty fine for not filing it on time.. was just employed through the period so never realized i should have deregistered for self employment purposes.

Dilemma is, i have got no clue about what and how to answer Question E3 and whether the above fines could be caught by the relevant immigration rules ?

guys really need your help as i am planning to go on a same day service next week so just want to be clear about things and want to disclose them properly...
