Does anyone know what DP 12/95 is/means?

Post by OL7MAX » Wed Sep 06, 2006 6:47 pm

Can't find anything on the IND site or in Google/Yahoo save for this vague reference to it: "the case fulfils the criteria set out in DP 12/95 and should be sent to lay-by as a missing overstayer". From that it's obvious it relates to missing overstayers and sending their files to lay-by (document storage).

Can anyone help me track down DP 12/95 or shed any light on what it contained? TIA

It means that the IND does not have enough resources to track down overstayers and once they have assessed the case and the whereabouts of an overstayer are unknown, the case is closed and the file is sent to Lay-By.
However, "missing overstayer" has a different meaning. The status "missing overstayer" is given to someone, who has been issued with Removal Papers IS151A or IS151B, but the IS could not track them down. Then the papers are then returned to IND, placed on file and the subject is treated as "missing". Also, the IS create the record on National Criminal Intelligence System used by Police so if an individual comes in contact with Police at any time, they are subject to an immediate arrest under the Immigration Acts.

Thanks for your reply, Jeff.

The entire home office file for this (my) case (released under FoI Act/DPR Act) has no record of IS151A or IS151B and that's why I'm desparate to track down the exact wording of DP12/95.

Do you know from what date "your" definition of missing overstayed applied?

Then you are NOT a missing overstayer. You may be an overstayer if you did overstay but if no one was looking for you, then you are not "missing"! :)

LOL, OK, I can put in an application under the 14 year rule then :)

But, I'd still be interested if anyone can come up with the text for DP12/95.

Probably: "Deportation Proceedings" and the date when they were implemented.

Don't worry about it, fella.

If you really want to be sure - get a copy of your file from SAB IND just on the day of your 14th anniversary!
