You need what everyone is submitting, nothing special really. As it is based on long residency so mainly they are concerned that u stayed legally 10 years in the country.

hello friend..


is Esol certificate from Edexcel accepted by home office ?

I want to apply flr m for my wife. As she needs A. But I am planning for B1 so that it may help also in ILR in future.

So its A1 or B1 from Edexcel Esol.

but confused by website from edexcel, please have a look and guide me please


Are Edexcel ESOL Speaking and Listening qualifications still recognised by the Home Office for ILR, Citizenship and passports?
Last Updated: 10 months ago Citizenship, ESOL Speaking & Listening, VISA

Yes, Edexcel ESOL qualifications meet the English Speaking and Listening requirement of the Home Office’s Knowledge of Language and Life in the UK (KoLL) requirement for settlement and naturalisation. Details can be found in the Home Office document Changes to the Knowledge of language and life in the UK requirement for settlement and naturalisation,

Edexcel ESOL qualifications are not valid for visa purposes. A list of qualifications that are can be found on the list of Secure English Language Tests (SELT) list - this includes other qualifications delivered by Pearson.

@Longresidence12

Where are you bro , seems we all were a bit nasty to you ignore what happened look forward lets gets things sorted for you mate . come back on forum , your inputs may be valuable for other users with same issue

You said that \HO was aware that there was some deception ( did they tell you or you assumed or your solicitor informed that to you ) . secondly as they did give you TIER 1 Visa and as sugessted by friends on this forum its better to wait for Tier 1 route for ILR which will better .

But we would like to know more .. say you can help others

@farhan Congrats brother don't forget us in your prayer's the pain of waiting is already less thinking about your happiness .....have a blast keep coming on this forum to help others thats your duty not daily but atleast once in a week and share your thoughts ....take a break and have fun ............

My old solicitor is a blunder.. who always do blunders and he wants that i withdraw appeal and apply again...

and he claims that even if you apply ilr and withdraw appeal your right to work carries on.. i said that no... ONCE i withdraw appeal my 3c ends and i am overstayer so no right to work.. he says... no no we will apply same day of withdraw appeal..

NOW

I met one new solicitor... he says that we will just add additional grounds in appeal that i have finished 10 years so give me ILR... and he is confident that in 2-3 months by God willing i will get ILR and also will save my ilr fees...



But i SAY better get approval my senior members of these forum.. that is this possible.. ???

thats why i am asking you brother.......

that should I just add additional grounds

or

apply ilr.. and then also add additional grounds..

Have you not got a solicitor dealing with your appeal, as it involves legal matter.

At the end of the day, it will save you cost of another application.

[maddysheffield]

Hey guys just a thought ...Please consider the date the acknowledgement was dated is the month HO received your application and not the date you sent .............because they will consider the log date when they entered your details as applied date ........any thoughts senior members

Yes maddysheffield I think you might be right. It's actually when they generate acknowledgement letter with reference number that is assumed to be the date of appllication process commencement.

If you look at it we got deceis ions for the applications which were received ..so going forward we rather have date on acknowledgement on tracker that would give a more clear idea of the process what say guys and moderators ...

All those who have acknowledge date or email ... consider you are in that month ...... especially those who applied in the 4 week of month ....

[smir]

Brother Obie..

thanks for reply

so what should i do now .. what is good please guide me..

1. just add additional grounds in appeal that completed 10 years and attend the court requesting judge to consider 10 year long residence..

or

2. Apply ILR without withdrawing appeal..so that application gets void and linked to my appeal ..

please guide me which is best option..

with me my wife is too in appeal..

You may be able to raise the ILR point at the hearing , by virtue of 85(4) , the judge has to consider and make a ruling on it.

It will be an error of law if he fail to do so.

Hello brother..

As my 10 year finish in 20 of december and Appeal for flr fp refusal is in Feb first week..

Now as I am adding additional grounds in apppeall.. so just was thinking to apply ilr after 20th december so that home office void the case and link my application to my appeal..

but i have seen Home office takes time to file to be considered from date we apply..

so i want to know... if I apply in december 20.. is it possible till like 10th of February that they will assign to case worker and case worker will void and link it to my appeal ?

As the time of application till date of appeal is only 50 days so is this time enough >>>???


please guide brother

Hey @maddysheffield in my SAR all my application dates were the dates I posted the application and not the date the received.

They place the envelope stamp on the first page of your application for record.

[theboynextdoor]

I came a cross this web site and desided my case will be useful for other members ...........

I came to uk as a student in sep 2001. I manage to renew my student visa up until 2010 dec. I needed only 9 months to complete my 10 years lawfull recidence. any way..... went to Croydon PEO on the 30th of dec 2010 for the same day service and been told that they need to do some check on my collage and also I haven't declare my conviction.but they said my aplication is still valid and gave me a piece of paper( I did receive suspended sentance back in 2008, 4months suspended for 2 years) waited until sep 2011 no answer from UKBA.by that time I have completed 10 years legally and aplied for IRL, I had two chilren at that time(born in the uk) and the case woker refuse my ILR and grant me 3 years of discretionary leave, the reason behind this (my conviction). at that time UKBA treated suspended sentance as a costodial sentance and there for it will take 7 years to spend, and I will be aligible to applay for ILR on or after sep 2015.after they granted me DLR I withdraw my student visa aplication it was still pending.

but out of the moon UKBA change the criminality trashold and consider suspended sentance as a non custodial sentance and therefore it will be spent after 3 years I was quite surprised and aplied for ILR on October 2014 and believe me or not I been granted ILR on nov 2014.
the point I am traying to make is.............this changes came on jan 2014 I didnt know about it until end of sep, believe me or not most of the solicitors even quite populor once too not aware about the changes (I don't want to name them) most of them simply saying that i can't applay,still.......up intil now,I have even got my ILR, my advice is do not trust your lawyer 100% do a bit of research . GOOD LUCK

[fielddrive]

Congrats to @F.khan who received his approval today... he will share more details in due course
