Hi,
I hope someone will be able to answer my query.
I’m a Non Eu spouse of a British/Irish citizen. I and my husband have been together for 13 years now and we’ve been officially married for 8 years. We also have got a child together who is British/Irish citizen as well.
We are planning to move to Ireland next year and I’d like to ask a specific question about immigration history.
In a nutshell, I have been living in the UK with my husband and child for the past 5 years. I have never been refused any visas to any country nor overstayed any of my visas in the past. Generally,I’ve got a very good immigration history.
But my concern is about my ILR application in the UK was refused on “not meeting the minimum income requirement”. Note: it was refused purely on technicalities as we have had all proof of exceeding the financial requirement way above the threshold of £18,600 per annum. It’s all down to anti-immigration and frankly speaking “dearly beloved” attitude of the UK government towards immigration with the policies implemented as part of the Hostile environment.
Technically I haven’t been refused any UK visas. As a result of that ILR refusal the Home Office has granted me a parental route to stay in the UK as a mother of a British child.
I am quite worried about this rejected application for ILR and its impact of my future application for a spousal visa to Ireland.
I am planning to mention about not being qualified for the ILR in the U.K. as I don’t think withholding any information would be a good idea.
Has anyone experienced a similar situation and what is the best way to go about it?
