No. You were not overstaying. When you are waiting for a decision from HO you are legally here. So the 10 weeks were legal, as well as 28 days after refusal.tier1waiting wrote:would they not say I used "deception" in my second application because technically it seems like I was already overstaying due to the fact that although I applied for my Tier 1 visa within 28 days of resigning from my previous job, I got a rejection of my Tier 1 application after 10 weeks of waiting (which is already past 28 days)?
You should have disclosed this. I'm surprised they didn't ask for a recent payslip. If you have your residence permit already, try not to think about it. I guess you can say you didn't update the 2nd application by mistake.also, in my second Tier 1 application which was approved, I never disclosed to them that I resigned from my job (which was based on work permit) which was already more than 10 weeks ago (over 28 days ago) and I still ticked "employed" in the box provided in the application form and not overstaying more than my leave... so was I using deception?
Yes that's deceptiontier1waiting wrote:to continue from above...had i not ticked "employed", the only other two categories are "self employed" and "other (e.g. students".... so thats why i ticked employed because the points for earnings i am claiming is based on being employed....even though i am not really employed already by the time i submitted my application.... will this be found out by the home office in the future when i apply for extension? is it deception?
Well I don't think anyone on here is clairvoyant.tier1waiting wrote:well...three immigration lawyers from different companies told me to put employed... because it actually means "employed based on what category of income earnings i am claiming points for".... so i hope they are right so it is not actually deception? if not, then if i did used deception....of course i am not gonna report myself....and when i apply for my extension 3 yrs from now....will the home office found out that little piece of issue?
I really strongly disagree with republique.tier1waiting wrote:well...three immigration lawyers from different companies told me to put employed... because it actually means "employed based on what category of income earnings i am claiming points for".... so i hope they are right so it is not actually deception? if not, then if i did used deception....of course i am not gonna report myself....and when i apply for my extension 3 yrs from now....will the home office found out that little piece of issue?
I dont see how you can disagree with no one is clairvoyant as to whether the HO is going to pick it up. How do you know one way or the other. you don't and that is the bottom line.Snoozles wrote:I really strongly disagree with republique.tier1waiting wrote:well...three immigration lawyers from different companies told me to put employed... because it actually means "employed based on what category of income earnings i am claiming points for".... so i hope they are right so it is not actually deception? if not, then if i did used deception....of course i am not gonna report myself....and when i apply for my extension 3 yrs from now....will the home office found out that little piece of issue?
Hey republique. I agree that we just don't know. But I do not agree that it was "deception". In South African visas get approved within 3 days, so many people have to quit there jobs before they apply. They all have to tick "employed" as that is what they claim for.republique wrote:I dont see how you can disagree with no one is clairvoyant as to whether the HO is going to pick it up.

What are you going on about? What does it have to do with SA. She had work permit, she quit her job and applied for Tier 1 and was rejected. She applied again 10 weeks later and was clearly not working but ticked off employed. And that wasn't honest. I don't care what her 3 lawyers told her. And I dont know why she is coming on here about it either. She heard what she wanted to hear and applied accordingly. What is the point on coming here after the fact, if it is wrong, it is wrong and she can't change it unless she is going to report herself. She just coming on her for some kind of absolution. Then get a priest. No need to clog the forum about some kind of technicality that she took advantage of and now thinks in retrospect was probably not on in the first place. Stand by your decision and move on. What is this nonsense about? Will they figure it out later and so on? Who knows?Snoozles wrote:
