I have a 2 conviction 1 in 2011 and 2nd in 2012. I was given 16month to do 8 months and in 2012 I was given 14 months to do 7 month. Does the HO assess sentence given or sentence served.

2.2 iv wrote:The “end of the sentence” means the entire sentence imposed, not just the time the person spent in prison. For example, a person sentenced to 3 years‟ imprisonment on 1/1/2013 will normally be refused citizenship until 1/1/2031 – the 15 year „bar‟ added to the 3 year sentence.

Between 12 months‟ and 4 years‟ imprisonment - Application will normally be refused unless 15 years have passed since the end of the sentence.

Also,

Decision makers should take into account persistent offending when assessing a person‟s character even if only as the overall pattern of behaviour may justify refusing an application, even if the sentences imposed would not normally in themselves be a reason for refusal.

What were the offences?
