Unspent Motoring conviction effect on ILR SET (M)
Posted: Sat Nov 07, 2015 7:37 pm
Hi,
I came to the UK June/2011 on a spouse visa.
I have had a motoring conviction due to driving without insurance by the court on 14/01/2013, was giving 6 points on my license and two endorsements (IN10 & LC20).
By Jan/2014 just before my visa expires, I've applied for ILR, it was refused as my conviction was unspent, they gave me 2 years residency permit, which will expire 17/01/2016. And stated that I need to reapply when the conviction is spent.
I know that endorsements takes 5 years to be spent. At the same time I've read that any non-custodial convictions will not cause ILR refusal if the conviction was over 24 months prior the day of the application of the ILR.
My question is, Should I apply for an extension or should I apply for ILR?
I would highly appreciate any quick help as it's all due very soon, and I am completely confused.
Kind Regards,
Ahmed Elwan
