Hi Guys!

Im currently in the process of applying for FLR FP! Im the applicant a pakistani national and i have one british child. In my intial application my husband successfully sponsored and he was earning over the requirement. Since then he has been inbetween jobs and is currently just earning 16K. I am also working but together our salary combined it is still not enough. So we dont earn enough for the requirement and hence why we cant apply under FLR M. I will be applying as a partner but as we have British child - section s117B(6) of the 2002 Act also applies.

I can see most of you guys have been waiting for a 10 - 12 months minimum if not more! I hope you are all granted visas ameen! Any tips or advice that you can state will be heavily appreciated!

Jazakallah

Hi guys,

I am new on this forum so I do apologise if I am posting this in the wrong category.

I applied under flr fp on :03/08/17
Acknowledgement received :11/09/2017
Biometrics: still waiting
Decision: still awaiting a decision when checked online

I applied without paying fee for the application as I couldn’t afford to pay since I was on Nass support and had no right to work. My child reached 7 yrs of age whilst my asylum case was pending so I sent a separate application flr fp for the whole family. I will really appreciate if anyone can shed some light on the following:

1- since I received the acknowledgment for flr-fp is my fee exempt now? At what point Can one be sure that fee exemption has been approved?
2- is it normal not receive biometric letter for this long? Should I chase ukba for biometric letter? Contacted ukba once and they Said it is not issued yet.
3- As asylum and flr-fp both are with ukba what application will decide now? Will they switch my application to flr fp and give decision on that or will they decide asylum and consider 7 year rule within asylum application?

Looking forward to hear from you all.
Regards

Seriously, I think we all need to organise and contact a news programme on sky/BBC to enable us make this public. This whole issue is becoming ridiculous. This is modern day slavery as far as I am concerned. In this modern day, there is always an SLA for everything. Even as complex as BREXIT, they have a date of 2019. We can't keep our arms crossed and let this issue carry on like this. It has caused a lot of pain and suffering to families. Alot of people have got kids to look after and these kids are British citizens, how complex can that be. The home office provided documents to be presented and even after providing all the documents stated, it still takes an average of 11 months to get a decision. I just think they are bent on frustrating people and I would rather they provide an answer even it is a decline within 6 months than keep people waiting for over a year and still decline the visa. These people that their visas are being held don't have access to benefits, they can't work and yet they gave kids to look after. This is just wickedness and no regards to children's welfare as quoted in section 55 under the immigration act and section 11 of of the children's act. The home office has been breaking the law inder these acts but because we are migrants, they believe we are toothless and can't do anything about it. We need to collectively cry out, speak up for ourselves and make these go public. We haven't committed any crime and shouldn't be scared to speak up. Can we all come together and organise something please. If this is not blown in the open nothing will ever be done about it. Take an instance of what's happening in relation to sexual scandals in parliament. If this was not in the news, it wouldn't have been looked into. Like the British saying goes "You don't ask, you don't get"....
I am totally with you. This is torture... like you said most of us have got kids to look after, British . But they chose to ignore and make families suffer. People are suffering with anxiety and depression not knowing what will happen or how long this will take.
Mine is almost 15months now.
This is slavary.i just want to know where the children comes in and how they want families to survive this hardship. no regard for migrants.

We need to gather ourselves and demand a peaceful reply and why we are being treated this way.
Yes agreed off course but how can we get a news channel like BBC or SKY get involved in this? Would they be willing to broadcast our concerns?

Getting media attention is not advisable according to some specialists. It'll become difficult for you, the case worker load and will bring it harder for others.

The only thing you can realistically rely on is a Judge to decide in a court of law if you have a strong case. Let the HO process your application and if they end up taking two years or more, submit a claim for unreasonable wait. If you read case and court history, many people have done this.

Be patient. Be kind. Think of what impact you may have on others. Voice your worries to your MP. If you're depressed go to the GP and voice your concerns.

I'm in the shackles of this system too with no end in sight. 16 months and waiting and have been told maybe we need to wait a year more due to the backlog and the complex nature of the case. The eventuality is it will be sorted but will take a long time and a lot of money. Have a good holiday season everyone.

Husband's timeline - overstayer 11 yrs
08/16 - FLR (FP) Partner, refused 02/18, 03/18 - JR permission refused with merit
08/18 - FLR FP (Partner) PSC - Approved
07/20 - FLR FP to FLR M Switch - Approved, 03/23 FLR M Ext Approved.

Thank you for all your hard work and support, can I kindly ask you to create a Facebook group where we can have a more free discussion, I suppose this is not the best media to do that.
