Naturalization difficulties

Post by Fourstar » Sat Aug 26, 2023 2:17 pm

Hi Guys,

First of all Thanks each and everyone on this forum though I joined late but really helpful, if anyone can please shed some light on following points please:

1- i don’t use my email address but my lawyer so can i request SAR using my email? And how helpful is SAR.
2- I am almost waiting 4 plus months can I send email using my email address to furthernationality, (I know it’s 6 months but neither Me nor my lawyer received any confirmation of application?) I have application reference etc. but on application it’s my lawyer email address, but he’s saying to wait 6 months before any inquiry.
3- when does the timer actually start for 6 months? I submitted online application and paid on 12th April, documents upload 16th April and biometric 24th April, at biometric they told me application submitted but never received any confirmation email nor text. My lawyer says don’t worry since we did biometrics.
4- my application is complexed (I think) as I don’t live continuously in UK due Job, I asked for discretion and explained circumstances, I got ILR on same grounds too, anyone seen or known any similar case?

Please guide .. thanks in advance

1- i don’t use my email address but my lawyer so can i request SAR using my email? And how helpful is SAR. Yes you can request SAR with your email as it actually even askyou for the confirmation. It presents to you details of the records hold on you for immigration purposes. From it you can get to know if anything can adversely affect your application or delay it.
2- I am almost waiting 4 plus months can I send email using my email address to furthernationality, (I know it’s 6 months but neither Me nor my lawyer received any confirmation of application?) I have application reference etc. but on application it’s my lawyer email address, but he’s saying to wait 6 months before any inquiry. No response is sent for any enquiry made before 6months.
3- when does the timer actually start for 6 months? I submitted online application and paid on 12th April, documents upload 16th April and biometric 24th April, at biometric they told me application submitted but never received any confirmation email nor text. My lawyer says don’t worry since we did biometrics.
4- my application is complexed (I think) as I don’t live continuously in UK due Job, I asked for discretion and explained circumstances, I got ILR on same grounds too, anyone seen or known any similar case? What is your job; as there are some jobs that gets some exemption on absences. What route did you use in getting ILR? How many days are your absences?

Please guide .. thanks in advance

Apologies for any intrusion but may I ask what your circumstances are in terms of ILR with excess absence days owing to your job? My friend's wife is in a similar position, and I am sure others would also find it useful. Many thanks, and apologies once more for any inconvenience.

What does that mean, ‘Be aware that records may not be complete, either from the past or current applications

Occasionally there have been reports where SARs responses had gaps in information or didn't contain expected details. Not necessarily a regular occurance.

List of Absence

Post by Fourstar » Thu Aug 31, 2023 1:12 pm

Hi

I’ve been asked further to provide list of absence for past 3 years. Is there any way where we can find from home office records my list of absence in UK? Due to nature of my job it’s quite difficult to list all.

Pls help asap 🙏🏻

Why can't you list them all? Make a spreadsheet and submit with the other documents.
If they are not on the SAR then it's difficult to recommend any other official source.
You may have to trawl through your own records, emails, bookings, calendars, etc.
If not possible, make an estimate, based on your knowledge of the work travel requirements.
Doesn't the company keep extensive records for staff travel?

Hello everyone,

Please anyone shed any light based on history of the group:

I’ve excessive absence due work, been asked reason which I provided last month, today I got email from MMST
“ This is because your application raises exceptionally complex issues, and we require further time to consider your case thoroughly and reach a decision.”

Ive reached six months just wanted to check
-there have been reported cases of refusals after this email? Any information pls?
-is it a good thing that they looking at application or not? Or generally a refusal comes quite early?
-anyone on the same boat? My absence due work exceed 700days.
-lastly, any time line info? Any recent info? After this email on average ?

Check the timeline threads. Your decision may be out sooner than you think or may take a bit more. Its an auto maintained geys triggerred and sent once not decided upon within 6months
