my friend was denied entry in the uk last year around march on claims that she was working beyond 20hrs on a student visa. Her work was as a result of an nvq course she was doing. the course was been offered by a uk university. this resulted to her been seperated with her husband (how is currently an international students in the uk) and 2 years old son who is currently in the uk.
she is in the processes of collecting evidence to make a student dependant visa application when she found the visa ban rule. we realise that there is a grace period for people living illigally in the uk to leave the uk between 13-march and 1-oct 2008 and make an application before 1-10-2008 for them to avoid been caught by the visa ban. we are just confused if the concession is extended to people who left the uk before 13-march-2008.
