Tier 1 Enterpreneur Visa and Criminal Offence

Post by hiphop777 » Mon Jul 28, 2014 12:56 pm

Hi
I am on post study work visa which will expire in 1 month time. I had a criminal offence under sexual offence act 2003 recently. The court fined me and put me on probation for 3 years and also told me to notify police of any changes about my address and travelling. I am applying for entrepreneur visa. I am really worried can i get new visa or not or my application will be rejected on the basis of criminal offence. Can anyone help me with this matter.
Looking forward for advice. Thanks

You need to see suitability for your application type.
