Why would the applicant in this case provide to HO payslips that contain proof " of breaching immigration laws" ? Is a very dump move! These applications are very straight forward, there's no need to provide any payslips or working contracts (unless) you have been on Tier1 visa/s. I have the same HMRC statement too but at the moment it only shows 5 years history. I have requested a full history and let's see what is gonna contain.

I agree with you that HMRC statement is very general and does NOT contain any hours but if you have earned £12K for that year it becomes quite obvious. Please if you have any other info forward directly to me or post it in the forum so everyone can benefit. Thanks

I think, the applicant was submitted payslips when He applied Tier 1 (General) but this time caseworker has looked his immigration history and found that he was breaching immigration laws. Caseworker has refused his application and given evidence as a previous payslips.

In my case, Home Office has contacted my employer with regards my employment but never ask about payslips or hours etc. However, my company has sent general letter e.g. employment confirmation letter. Three months have passed let see what decision will come.

well, is quite unclear from the document to understand but even if he would have applied for T1 still a Travelodge Hotel salary would have never been enough to succeed, so I am confused really

I think, he was working Starbucks (Not Travelodge). I am with you but Caseworker had used his wage slips as evidence that's y his appeal was dismissed. But now a days, Caseworkers are checking everything before making decision.

Application : SET (LR) 10 year long residence
Application sent: 29 March 2016
Application Received: 30 March 2016
Payment deducted: 1 April 2016
Acknowledgement letter received : Not yet…

Application is all straightforward with no complicating factors (I hope). Completed all forms myself. Couldn’t find an appointment in time so did a postal application.

Has anyone applied since March and got a decision already? How long should I expect to wait?

If you don't mind could you explain me how Home Office has found that your friend was working more than 20 hours. They have given any evidence. As I know, Home Office only proof if they get information from employer or found wage slips... I don't think they've got information from HMRC. If employer has given information to Home Office, definitely employer will get plenty £20,000.00. If you don't mind could you please share it if do you have further information.

My mate spoke to Hmrc and they notified that were approached by home office asking for his tax and national insurance contributions now my mate. Worked for this firm for 8 and half years he was on student for 3 years and 7 months and then psw and tier 1 general so I assume they must have got his tax contributions for tier 1 general and as a part time worker and probably did maths cuz as a part time worker you barely pay any tax but they doing a lot now days they checking every little thing

Mr Raza.Raja

I am not agreed, I am doing PhD and University is paying me nearly £14000 a years plus am working part time. All together 20164 for the year 2015-2016 and I have paid tax £1896 (As per HMRC Record). I know, Home Office has contacted my employer with regards my employment but didn't ask about hours etc. As wall as I spoke with HMRC with regards tax and NI contribution, and I have been told that they only have contribution record not hours etc. On that bases, I don't think Home Office will refuse visa. My understanding, If someone applied Tier 1 (General) visa and submitted pay slips. It may be, Home Office picked from old record and refused their Long Residency application. If employer has provided information to Home Office than employer will pay plenty (£20000.00). Its my understanding. I only found and read 1 case from Tribunal Website. If you don't mind, please could you tell us what evidences Home Office has provided on refusal.

[quote="AMJ80"]Mr Raza.Raja

Well you don't have to agree I am just revealing what I was told by my friend and secondly not everybody doing PhD like you it has happened to at least three people I personally know and one of them made a mistake by sending emploemnt letter and pay slips when they were not even needed but other two were simply and straight cases don't know what happened to them I guess it's vary on case worker as well how long back that person wants to go back and stuff

Dear Raza Raja,

Please don't mind. I do agree (One applicant submitted employment letter and wages slip), and smiler case I have read on upper tribunal website. May be, they were right. It was shocked and surprised when Home Office has contacted my employer with regards my employment confirmation etc. I don't know " what will be happen in my case". Please can you share information or evidences with regars other friends refusals. Thanks

My understanding, Your husband long residence broken due to he left the UK and didn't submitted fresh application within 28 days. I would suggest you, read caseworker guide line https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/s ... .0_EXT.pdf

Second thing, If you have ILR and your husband has mentioned in application than caseworker should discretion exercises (if someone has relationship with British or settle person). I am sorry to tell you that you child is only five years old and home office has withdrawn their policy with regards seven year child policy. Still your husband can fight through court under Human Rights (Art-8). I think you have to discuss with solicitor..

Help!

Is there anything that I can do to speed up the application once it has been submitted? I sent in the application on the 29 March. Money was debited the next day but I still have not received the confirmation letter.

My work contacted them and they were told they still have not entered it into the system.

I have to travel the first week of May. Now I am getting really worried about the application.

Is there anything at all I can do to speed it up? Is there any way to contact the Ukba? Thanks.

Hi,

There is a waiting time of 4 weeks, once they receive the application, I just called them today on 030 0123 2241 and they have mentioned until 4 weeks from the date we have sent the application they cannot check anything.

Also I guess due to Bank holiday and fees increase pre-18 March there looks to be a huge influx of application to UKBA.

I hope this helps.

I posted mine on 22nd and money was deducted 29th March yet no Biometric letter.

KR,
A

Thanks A.

That's worrying. Yes I guess easter and the recent fees increase both are creating a backlog.

When you say 4 weeks do you mean total to get the ILR, or 4 weeks before you can ask for a status?

In my case I already have the biometric card from my last visa application two years ago so I guess I don't need to do it again?

Realistically how likely is it I will have my ILR by 1st May? Should I just cancel my trip now

Hi,

4 weeks from the date you post, even if you have existing biometric you will have to provide biometric again, also increasingly unlikely you will get a decision within 3 weeks even if we consider you get biometric letter this week.

I hope this answers your question.
