Dear Moderators/Gurus, I need your help to apply for my Spouse UK Settlement visa next month. It's an arranged marriage and we know each other since July2013 and we got engaged in India in Aug2013 and later I came to UK. Our wedding is on 13Nov2013 in India and I' am flying to India next week. We re...
You've already lost nearly £900. If you want to spend another £80 you can ask for a reconsideration, there is a very small amount of discretion still left even for excessive speeding. Something compelling would help, was there any particularly stressful things happening at the time? I have been to ...
Did you go to court for SP50? If yes, then read Q5 from the FAQ and you'll have the answer. Sage - I was not given FPN. I was directly served NIP (Notice of Intended Prosecution) and referred to the court. I pleaded guilty by post and paid the fine. The court later convicted me with fine and points.
I explained the risk you were taking in applying. You were depending on the discretion of the caseworker to disregard the one minor conviction, however, it was a reckless offence, speeding, and it didn't succeed. You have no appeal right. You coud ask for a reconsideration (£80) but you'd have to g...
I don't think a speeding conviction is considered a 'minor' offence but I could be wrong. I'll let the gurus give their opinion. This is from the CW guidance notes: 3.3When minor convictions may be disregarded 3.3.1 Where the applicant is of good character in all other respects caseworkers should n...
Hi D102030, Guru's My Naturalisation application is refused today on the grounds of 'Non-Custodial Conviction' (Speeding SP50 from the court). I was convicted for speeding on Jan 2012 and UKBA has refused my applcation based on only 'ONE MINOR' conviction. According to- ' British Citizenship – Good ...
Sounds good though make sure you use the words minor conviction and minor fine and ask them to use their discretion under paragraph 3.3.1. Remember you may still be rejected. Keep us informed about the progress of your application. I just went through the complaint from the PROCURATOR FISCAL DUMFRI...
Hi Guru's, Today (07/05/2013), I went to apply for Naturalisation at NCS and all went well until the officer noticed I have declared Speeding Conviction - SP 50 (from the Court which resulted in £180 fine and 4 penalty points) in my application form. He told that my application will be rejected due...

Finally got a positive response from BHC: I have confirmed with the Entry Clearance Officer that you may use the already existing work permit visa if the Tier one is yet to be valid. However, you should be travelling to the UK on the same work permit and satisfy the Immigration Officers at the port ...
Yes i did mention.. below is my mail draft: Dear Sir/Madam, Thanks for the update. I have got my Tier 1 (General) visa stamped from 02-Nov-2008 till 02-Nov-2011. I already had a UK Work Permit and visa sponsored by my employer which is valid from May 2007 to May 2009 using which i travelled to UK on...
Response from BHC: Your Tier 1 visa will supersede the Work Permit visa as Tier 1 visa permits you to work in the UK. So i assume my WP visa is cancelled and cant travel with this visa. I need to wait till Nov when my Tier 1 becomes valid... :cry: 1). Is there an option to advance the Tier 1 visa va...
I have sent an email to BHC to verify if my WP and WP visa is valid. My employer wants me to travel in Sep, assuming that i have a valid WP and visa. But if my current WP n visa is invalid then i will be in soup, since i cant use my Tier 1 also (valid from Nov).. Is there any other way around??? or ...
All Experts, I got my fresh Tier 1 visa stamped from India valid from Nov 08. But the BHC has not cancelled my Work Permit visa sponsored by my Indian employer. So i have both Tier 1 and WP visa. I have a strange situation now. My employer wants me to travel to Uk next month. My queries are: 1). Can...
