Congratulations on all that you have achieved (including the Tier 1 Extension and ILR)rakhi117 wrote:Hi All,
I have had my ILR approved along with 2 dependents (wife&kid) on 22/06/11. My case was submitted on 21/06/11 through a specialist immigration firm. I have also extended my tier-1 10 days before i applied for ILR (ofcourse i had to spent awful lots of money on tier-1 extension & ILR for peace of mind). Well my history is as
1. WP (Entry clearance May2006)
2.Switched to Tier-1 (july 2008)
3. 184 days absences abroad (excluding departure/arrival dates)
4. Iam an indian national, my wife a pakistani and my son uk born holding indian passport...seems to be rare and odd combination lol. Love has no boundries...
Ladies & Gents for any questions i am happy to answer as i been following this forum every day/night since last 2 months and helped in preparing my documents and posing questions to my solicitor for clarification.
Congrats rakhi. Your 2nd Tier-1 extension was valid for how long? I mean did they give you 3 years visa or 2 years and the requirement was exactly same as your 1st tier-1 extension I suppose.rakhi117 wrote:Hi All,

Good question! Not really sure if the caseworker or senior officer would be thinking twice before refusing a family with a kid (unlike my family immigration status). The only issue i had was exceeded 180 by 4 days and read 1 or 2 cases refused on the basis of absences. So i really wanted to express to caseworker from my documents for a discretion that iam a family with UK born kid and had spent nearly 9 years (4 yrs i was a student) in uk lawfully and made UK main home.gentlejuke wrote:Hi Rakhi - congratulations and I wonder why did you go for ILR for your kid rather applying for Citizenship...
Thanks on first part. We hope so..Gopaalan wrote:Congrats on you ILR. I wish there's a million more Indo-Pak marriages.
How did you/solicitor explained the more than 180 days absences? were any of this business absences? did the caseworker asked any specific questions on this?
