[quote="Mysterymeow"]Hello friends
Please could you add me to the spreadsheet. Application sent on 4/4/15. 6 and a half years student, 2 years PSW and 1 year 5 months Tier2. Only potential problem would be a break of 4 months when I lodged an appeal but then Pankina Judgement came through and visa was then approved. So we will see if this is straight forward or not though I did explain in a covering letter.

Thanks
Good luck and may your applications be processed swiftly.[/quote]
Hi Admin
Please could you add me to the spreadsheet as above with acknowledgement via letter received 17/4/15.

How appeal went brother


Please share



As our time is also near


Thanks

@Hamzaakbar

If you withdraw appeal you are overstayer

Still you can make fresh ILR application in 28 days

But in case may Allah not and HO become naughty and refuse you then no right if appeal

So be careful

Best is soon after 1 April inform Tribunal and HO appeal officer that you finished 10 years and will maintain that you qualify for ILR

May be that HO withdraw appeal or judge in court tell HO to reconsider the case

Hi guys,
I am going for same day appointment next week on Wednesday. All your prayers are needed. Everything else is straightforward, apart from that I do not have one of my three passports issued in last ten years as it was stolen in UK. Got copy of that , plus visa copy, police report etc. ( I hope Home office has all records anyway which they can check to confirm travel dates). Any ideas how to overcome this ? Could this be a problem? Has anyone else had this problem?

Hi Na74 , Good luck for your visa next week , you will be the first one on this form to go same day service , once you get the visa please share your exp , this can help other they are going for same day service:)

once again good luck , do share your experience.

Wife's documents ?

I can understand that this question is not related to this thread. Can someone please help me on this matter or at least direct me to the right thread.

Thanks in advance.

i was refused my ILR because there are gaps of 85 days. In my own understand it was administrative error . I have submitted a pre-action to HO and the HO made their stand. My solicitor said he need to judicial review that is to go court. I am confused because of the cost involved. Can I change my solicitor. If yes can i just find another solicitor. Is anybody here with this same issue.

[zilcan]

Hi All,

I have just received a bad news regarding my ilr i.e. rejected. I will be seeing my solicitor today. However, from the notes on website I found that I can go for reconsideration and/or judicial (I haven't been given a permission to appeal, based on my current stay, which will be expiring in 2018). I came to UK in 2005 and since then, I extended my visa based on educational grounds. In January 2010, I applied for student visa and they sent me documents back as the picture wasn't valid. Exactly on the same day i.e. 1st March (or within 28 days of visa expiring period, visa expired on 31st January), I sent my documents again. However, in a mistake, I sent them wrong application form (I didn't realize that between the first submission and the second submission, the requirements were changed). On 8th of April, HO sent a letter saying that my application is rejected. I contacted University (I am still at the same university and doing my doctoral degree), who made a new application in May, but between this time they sent a letter to HO (in between April and May) stating that the student didn't know regarding the application and now we are submitting his new application. In the month of July, HO granted me visa.

The main reason of rejection is same, I am disappointed by that news as I work really hard in live. I contacted several solicitors yesterday, who have suggested me for various things. I also searched on your website and came across the term reconsideration and also got information from HO's website. At the moment, I am not sure that if my solicitor stated in a covering letter regarding my previous visa rejection and the whole story (I will be seeing him today). Could anyone provide me with suggestion???

Many thanks,
Zac

Hi Sud314,

Actually i used the TOEIC english certificate which is under investigation, you might have heard about the ETS scam, the bbc televised the documentary on it, some colleges were involved in abusing the system taking the proxy test for others. But there are a lot who have taken the test genuinely who are suffering as well. I have already sent them another english test and yet they are holding my application.

Hi Hammad,

Is your case complicated that they take this long?
Would you not be able to expedite this in anyway?
Didn't you ask that why they take so long when their estimated time is 6 months. Why it take so long above average?

Some had commented that they send a second email saying if it's not going to be decided in 6 months they would let us know asap.
So did they do that in your case?

Yes it is ridiculous and understand your frustration for having to wait so long even having paid huge visa fees
Really hope you get it sorted out soon!!

Isn't there any phone no/ email address that you can use to check the progress given that it's taken this long

[das09]

Hi das09,

If you are applying for ILR on Long residence basis (10 Years) you wont even need the payslips. Just your Life in the UK and English Language Certificate.
