Tier 2 extension refused - traffic offence not declared

Post by pab677 » Tue Feb 16, 2016 5:25 pm

Hello Guys,

I am in a similar situation as my Tier 2 application has been refused under paragraph 322(1A).

I have disclosed my traffic offense but I did not do that for my caution. As I though the caution was spent, and that I was also advised at the Police station that this will only remain at the local Police database and it's not a criminal conviction. I have been given the chance to send my application for administrative review, please if you have any useful suggestion, advise me on this matter.

Many thanks.

Rehab of offenders has not applied to Home Office since Oct 2012, so "spent" is meaningless.

It will not be accepted as a genuine mistake.

In terms of whether you can carry on working it depends on whether you are covered by s3C. What was the date of (a) expiry of Tier 2 leave (b) extension application and (c) refusal?

what if the conviction was more than 9 years and you forgot genuinely to mention in the application.will that help in the admin review to turn positive results.

Hi Guys,

I am due to apply for Tier 2 extension and I have Traffic Offense for Speeding (SP30).

Are you saying that even speeding should be mentioned while filling the form. And I am not sure if this is called Criminal Offense or is it.

Would really appreciate if you could help here.

Regards,
Dragon098

It should be declared.

Casa,

Just to confirm, It should be declared in criminal offense section or CIVIL Penalty section because as far as I know there is no Traffic Offense section.

One more question, I did receive PCN for driving in Bus Lane. Do i need to declare PCN that too.

Thanks

Was the offence heard in Court?

Hi Casa,

PCN was paid to Camden Council online £65 and Speeding (Sp30) was paid online to Metropolitan Police £100.

I was not called to court or anything.

Thanks

A Criminal Conviction
"road traffic offences (speeding, parking fines) except where the matter has been dealt with by way of a 'fixed penalty notice' as such matters do not constitute a criminal conviction"

If you were issued with a FPN you should declare it under 'civil penalties'. The same with a PCN.

Hi Casa and others,

I was researching again and came across another thread in regards to traffic offense and it states following.
Question 7.1. Have you or any dependents who are applying with you been convicted of any criminal offence in the UK or any other country?

Section 7.2. asks to declare the conviction if there is any. There is a note below which states “We will carry out criminal record checks on all applicants and dependants. You must give details of all unspent and spent criminal convictions. This includes road traffic offences but not fixed penalty notices (such as speeding or parking tickets) unless they were part of a sentence of the court. This includes all drink-driving offences”
Does it mean that I don't need to declare because my offense was just speeding. If that's true then I don't understand why the author of this thread got his visa refused?
