I have been refused my 10 years long residence because of 85 days gap . the reason was 1 - rejected applications . A lawyer say is complex and there is no thing to be done. Does some one have experience like this and the problem is over

Hi All,

I want to ask you all of you if you can advise me with my status now.

I would like to apply this 10 years long residence and i have not broken any rules except days spent outside uk which is 540 days. I spent at least 650 as per today. It means i spent 110 days more than days allowed. The reason also i spent that days was because i went home and got married.

Does anyone have any similar experience?

Your reply is much appreciated.

Thank you

Any news or any update on your app ?

This forum is gone very quite. I guess less number of applicant so less interest and less traffic on the forum.

I did apply on 20th Dec. what is your opinion, when will we get ours ?

Hi
@amir 115
I'm afraid ur debit card payment has declined. Thats why when I applied, I opted for postal order payment for my application. I'm afraid they will consider you as an over stayer. But this is not ur fault. HO didn't inform you about ur declined payment and there is a genuine point to argue. If this is the case then arrange a good solicitor and clear ur position to avoid any further inconvenience.

You can find your MP from this website

http://www.parliament.uk/mps-lords-and-offices/mps/

The MP's office can contact the HO directly to get an update about your case. It is likely the HP might quote the 95% applications in 6 months timescale though.

Godd luck!

Thanks Dec17 for your reply.

The problem is that
I came to UK in 2004 as a student
Got married end of 2006
Got my family permit for 5 years until 2013
But our marriage broke down early 2010
Got my divorce in 2012
submitted documents before the expiry date of my visa which was early 2013 for ILR
Refused in March 2014 as my x partner wasn't in the country at the time of divorce (2012) as she left in 2010
Lost my appeal in the first tier tribunal as the judge agrees with HO
therefore 5 year route has been tried and got refused
only hope is now 10 year route but the question is do I qualify ?

Regards

I don't know why solicitors said to you why you can not apply. If you read guidence of 10 years long residence it clearly says "you have lived in UK for 10 years lawfully" it doesn't says what kind of visa category you had or you have in 10 years as far as you spent 10 years lawfully you are eligible for ILR.
Yes yask I agree you ,if you spent 10 years lawfully that's it you can apply .
