I really need help and advise please.
My application for British Citizenship has been rejected by the Home Office for the Good Character, The HO stated that :
1. I came to the Uk illegally ( but its not True as i came with a student visa )
2. That i delayed to apply for Asylum ( i applied 8 months after arriving to UK as i did not not about this possibility and i was not well, when i applied for asylum my student visa was still valid and not expired)
When my application for asylum was granted 7 years ago, the judge cleared out those two points and the home office never said anything about.
My question is :
Did anyone in similar situation had a successful reconsideration.
If i apply for reconsideration, is it better to use a solicitor or i just do it myself.
Please advise me as i am lost right now.
Did you upload marriage cert and spouse's British passport etc??Gerry2000 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 05, 2019 5:31 pmHi all, my application for citizenship through naturalisation was rejected. The rejection was on the basis of not having had permanent residence in the UK for 12 months prior to applying for citizenship. Furthermore the rejection letter refers to this requirement fo EEA and Swiss nationals who are not applying on the grounds marriage/civil partnership to a British citizen.
In my case however, I am applying on the grounds of being married to a British citizen from birth. This is also stated in my application.
I am an eu citizen who has received settled status.
If I send the form for reconsideration, is there anything else I need to provide? When can I expect to get an answer?
Thanks for your help.
Yes, I’ve filed the online application and the scanned were deemed as sufficient by ukvcas. All requirements were uploaded correctly.CR001 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 05, 2019 5:42 pmDid you upload marriage cert and spouse's British passport etc??Gerry2000 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 05, 2019 5:31 pmHi all, my application for citizenship through naturalisation was rejected.

Kindly do NOT post your 'new' citizenship question in this topic. You have an existing topic, where a member did respond to you already. Please post your queries there.Banting wrote: ↑Tue Oct 08, 2019 11:25 amHello everyone,
I was refused on my first try of naturalisation back in 2011 and I'd like to apply again.
Do I have to put the naturalisation application although it was refused on my new application? It's going to be in the part of "Have you made any previous UK immigration applications in the UK or abroad?" Yes or No?
Other than that I have never made any. I do have ILR though.
Thank you
I’m sorry Usman, but you’re in for a long long wait. I applied for reconsideration in April 2019 and only got the approval email 2 weeks ago. It took the Home Office around 17 months! I got an acknowledgement of receipt letter in June 2019 And I think they took the money within 3 weeks. Hopefully yours will be quicker as my application was affected by Covid19 lockdown. And after all this time I’m still waiting to find out when I might be able to do my ceremony as my council are still doing their risk assessment.Usman786000 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 8:44 amHello
Does anyone apply for naturalisation reconsideration recently? I send my form on 12 August 2020 and I’m still waiting. They didn’t take money from my account and no confirmation of receiving. Can someone please share their reconsideration timeframe.
Thanks
Why was your application refused and what date did you receive the refusal?Usman786000 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 8:44 amHello

What is the circumstance and your UK immigration history?Usman786000 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 9:21 amThanks Nikmishin for the info dear.
I received the decision on 28 July 2020. The reason was because of lawyers fault I was over stayer in 2017, which was successfully challenged. They refused on this reason.
I asked about 2017, lawyer fault and the overstay. Not you ilr route!Usman786000 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 9:27 amIt was based on 10 years long residency. I got ILR in November 2018. After one year of ILR, applied for naturalisation.
What application was it for and why was it refused?Usman786000 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 9:33 amThe lawyer didn’t tell me about the correspondence and also keep the refusal letter for a month. After a month I received the money back from home office then I came to know the decision. I send email to lawyer firm about this negligence, didn’t receive any reply. Then take this complaint to SLCC, which is in Scotland, the lawyer was sacked and the firm accepted their fault. I send them proof of calls which I made enquiring about my application.
So it was firms fault and I was kept in dark.
