What should my next step be?

[pricesoft]

Hello Guys,

I had applied to the Upper tribunal for permission to appeal the first-tier tribunal's decision to dismiss my appeal. I received the letter of decision this evening and it wasn't good. To be honest, I had always feared the worst. Not because my arguments weren't strong, but because it confirms a developing pattern in how decisions are made.

Quite curiously, the letter of decision doesn't include a guide on what to do next so I thought I'd come on this forum to get some advise. In the time I was awaiting the Upper tier decision, my legal representative had sent a letter to the UKBA last week requesting that they accepted a new tier 2 application. My sponsor has got one CoS allocation but we have decided not to use the one allocation yet until we got some sort of assurance from the UKBA that they would be happy to entertain a new tier 2 application.

They have yet to reply to our letter, but I'd like to know what I need to do to avoid becoming an overstayer in light of the new Upper tribunal decision.

I really appreciate your responses.
