Any one who intend to apply for set lr in near future must make sure to request your Subject Access Request which takes between maximum 40 to 50 days by clicking the option "All data held by UKBA" Particularly those fellows who really think they had few troubles in their past ten years in their extensions.Once you receive your SAR,you will be able to fight back and especially you will prepare your application more efficiently and you would know that you really need to apply some solicitor if the SAR shows some complexity but for the straight forward cases,never go for solicitors.

Dec17 wrote:hello dear,where you got refused and you had been given an appeal right,you did appeal timely and you won appeal and in a result you have been granted a visa,if you applied for your visa before the expiry of your previous visa means an in time application then i could guarantee your continuity is not broken because you were covered under 3c.as for as your student extension concerned,again if you applied an in time application and when it was returned back as invalid and was asked to resubmit it within 28 days and you did,then again as for as the immigration rules part 7,276(b)(V) you have not broken your continuity.there r lots of approvals who had the same invalid issue and they had been granted with approval and afcourse there are few as well who had the issue and they were refused so it clearly indicates the HO capability of deciding applications,hope for the best what happens,happens anyway.
Thanks again rosazeetrosazeet wrote:Again some more info needed as we don't know about refusal letter. Did they return your application as invalid or they refused.

@Since,If you applied an in time tier 1 application and was returned as invalid because of signature,you must have given letter stating apply within 28 days and if you applied within 28 days then you are absolutely fine as application submitted within 28 days does not break continuity of residence.Since wrote:Dear All,

@Timata,dear if all of your past applications are straight forward,no gaps,no issues then you will even be fine without few documents you have mentioned because in this category even if you send extra documents but you had issues in past or gaps or over staying etc,they would not consider other documents but at the same time this is plus point for you as you are providing them with more information which is also nice.make sure you also send them photocopies of your all passports along with original and just for your own sake if you wanna make photo copy of the form and keep it with yourself to avoid future discrepancies.Go ahead you are fine with these documents.Nothing is better than peace of mind.Timata24 wrote:Dear All,
One final check with the house before submitting my application. I want to check if my documents/supporting documents will suffice.
1. All passports with stamps.
2. Copies of all biometric cards
3. Life in UK
4. Degree in UK
5. Children Birth Certificate (UK) - Ties
6. Mortgage Documents
7. Letter from Employer - Stating current employment status.
8. And finally completed application form
Do I need to add anymore supporting documents. Is a cover letter advisable? if yes, does anyone have a template?
Thanks

@ShahfurqanAllesheikh wrote:@Allesheikh,mate i definitely could understand your frustration but still you have not crossed the six months time limit.i am very much sure you will soon be receiving a decision on your application as you mentioned they have asked for the death certificate and you also have involved your local MP.you mentioned though you made an in time application but you been refused twice and then you applied and got visa.you must make sure that there is difference between refusal and rejected as invalid because of any issue such as payment,picture,form etc.if you were refused because of the college but you made an in time application,then you must have received an appeal option and if you did receive,you won and you were granted with visa,then you are fine.as for as rejected as invalid is concerned,if you made an in time application and was returned and you were asked with a letter to reapply within 28 days and you did and got visa,you will still fine.If the HO erroneously refused your application and letter on through consideration or pre action protocol they reversed their original decision your continuity is still not broken.could you please explain the gap scenario with exact dates?
