Hi Amber,
Is there a way to obtain limited leave now that Caution is grounds for refusal so that one can prove that they are not repeating the offence

Since you were given caution in april 2013 the 24 month period is over now, you can apply for ILR but you have to mention the caution in your ILR application.

You can argue about the nature of caution.

Could you please give us bit more details about why were you given caution and did you contest it?

Dear All

7 years ago, one got arrested on suspicion of a robbery and was released on bail with no charge imposed. On two occasions the bail end date was altered by the police and thereafter urged the individual that it is not necessary to return to the police station for further enquiries. Thereafter personal belongings that were confiscated from the indivual was also released.

The individual further continued to apply for visa extensions after the incident on various categories which were approved and in all of the applications nothing was mentioned on either the application form or by means of a cover letter with regards to the arrest. The only concern that the individual had was whilst using PEO services one had to wait for an extended amount of time for the biometric confirmation to come through.

The individual shall be applying for an ILR on the basis of Long Residence. Will the aforementioned issue have an impact on attaining the ILR status if a PEO was used as opposed to a straightforward application?

Is a cover letter stating the aforementioned absolutely necessary?


Your assistance in this matter is highly appreciated....
