They might. I suggest to not apply unless 10 years have passed from any conviction or immigration issues.a- Do you think the HO may consider me someone that is a repeat offender? Although the GC guide suggest not.
Yes. Your work history and any bankruptcy should be declared. Council tax payment checks will be done by HOb. Does the online application requires one to give or explain your financial history as well as council tax payments?
Rehabilitation does not apply to BC applications. Grant of BC is purely at discretion of HO and as I suggested above, you need 10 years clean history to maximise your chances.c. Can you confirm that my 10 year ban/conviction is now expired. Is my assessment correct that the ban expires in 2018?
I suggest to disclose all relevant information. Checks will be done on your work history to ensure you didn't work illegally mostly in the last 10 years.d. Do I have to state that I worked illegally before (3)?
I suggest to disclose all relevant informatione. Under page 42 of GC, deception and dishonesty- am I obliged to give these information relating m=to my financial life etc. if not requested in the application(I have no idea what application looks like)?
Not reallyf. Although it may seem un-necessary or irrelevant- Is there anywhere in the application or is it worth writing about one's contribution to the society to suggest GC?
Yes. Checks can be extensive and intel might come from multiple sourcesg. Is it likely that financial checks beyond what is available on credit agencies can be carried out? Am I obliged to disclose this? Afterall, it isn't bankruptcy or is it?
Unrelated question-The dates are random but in-line with situation to avoid pin-pointing exact dates here for privacy.
A RC is non-compulsory for a family member.
Under non- compulsory- I understand this and agree. However, I was confused and held on to HO's assertion that I must continue to sign-on until a decision was made on my application which is contrary to the directives. Obviously I was eventually issued a RC which confirms my right. I just need a word of confidence or confirmation that my legal residence commenced from date of marriage from the experts1. Possession of a registration certificate as referred to in Article 8, of a document certifying permanent residence, of a certificate attesting submission of an application for a family member residence card, of a residence card or of a permanent residence card, may under no circumstances be made a precondition for the exercise of a right or the completion of an administrative formality, as entitlement to rights may be attested by any other means of proof.
EUN2.20 What are the visa endorsements for EEA family permits? wrote:
After entry to the UK the holder can apply to the Home Office for a residence card. A residence card (an endorsement in the holder’s passport) enables the holder to re-enter the UK without the need for an EEA family permit for as long as they are the family member of an EEA national with a right of residence in the UK. A residence card, which is normally valid for five years, is simply a confirmation of the holder’s right of residence in the UK - it is not a compulsory requirement.
Under the link- family member- I gave a quick read, I don't see the relevance of this, it's not related as to when my right starts. Moreover, the appellant's case was dismissed, or did I misunderstood it?OA (EEA - retained right of residence) Nigeria [2010] UKAIT 00003 wrote:
iv) For the purposes of reg 15(1)(b) the period of time during which a person "has resided in the United Kingdom with the EEA national ..." must commence from the date the person first became a family member that being the date of marriage in the case of a spouse.
