10 years long residence applications

immee wrote: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...

But if you mention them, it will not do any harm. It is no problem either way. But these penalties are not CCJ or immigration penalty (for employing illegal workers etc.)
So you can answer as No. You can get a report on ccj for £3, online. So just to be sure.

Urgent response required PLEASE.

I am applying for 10 year long residence (ilr) indefinite leave to remain. I have a concern regarding a possible
break in my ten year stay. Here are the details below :

Visa was aproved in Jun 2004 - Arrived 21/09/2004 - 2 year working holiday visa
I applied for student visa jun 2006 which was refused on the 15/08/2006 due to a mistake on my student letter.
My college corrected this on the 26/08/2006 but advised me to reapply from outside the UK because I would not be covered under
the 3C rule. I left uk on the 29/08/2006 with the understanding I had 28 day extension after my refusal to leave the country without
breaking any rules and would not lose the 2 years I already stayed. My student visa was granted and I returned after 147 days.

All my application have been on time and I have never overstayed at any point of my residence. Please let me know if I can apply for my ILR this year as on the 22/09/2014 will be 10 years.

Thank you .

Assuming you arrived on 21/9/04 with 2 year whv, you would have had leave to remain till 21/9/06.

you left on 29/8/06 when this leave would have been valid.

you stayed away for less tha 180 days and you had valid leave/visa when you left as well as when you entered than yes you can apply this year.

many ifs and buts. you need to be clear on the facts.

I applied for my ILR under SET (LR) on 1st of April through a solicitor, My previous application was refused due to total number of days spent outside UK in 10 Years. I already made up those days and total number of days I spent outside UK were les than 540 (which is UKBA requirement).

My father is in serious condition in my home country , having major operation next week. Doctors advised that he should have all his family members with him to speed up his recovery. I contacted my Local MP office , sent them all the reports, MRI , Scans along with a note from a doctor. My MP has already forwarded all the details to Home office two weeks ago and I haven't heard anything yet. Any success for anyone in expediting there application will help and also to know what channel they used.

If I withdraw my application, can I apply in Person with same day appointment , or is it too late for this ?

I am desperate to go to my father especially at times when my presence is very important for him.

Please advise any help , suggestion or proven methods to expedite the application, Is there a possibility to request to change my application to same day service and pay the difference and go to the PEO where my application is held?

Guys I will be waiting for your replies and posts.

Regards

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.

From the post you all seems to have a lot experience in this topic. I am glad that I will definitely find my answers correctly.

I am on tier 1 entrepreneur visa which is valid till 2018, I am completing 10 years in September. I have also one dependent (husband).

Now I do not have any gap in my stay or haven't made any application after visa expiry but my last application tier 1 was refused in May 2013 and I appealed I time the final decision just came in April 2015. As they approved visa.

As I will apply for ilr soon can anybody tell me how to explain about this gap where I was legal under section 3(c)??

Also my partner is by dependent since 2010 he has successfully completed 5 years of the stay as my dependent so can I also proceed his file as ilr ? Or it will go again as my dependent?

Your all feedback is valuable please do reply.

Regards

TIA
