psw (Oxford Brookes Uni) application was returned by UKBA

Post by kelamyne » Tue Apr 02, 2013 7:26 pm

I applied for leave to remain under Tier 1 PSW on 20/06/2011 on the basis of ACCA fundamental levels and got refused. I appealed against the decision in the first tier tribunal and my appeal was not allowed in first tier tribunal and was given the right to appeal in the Upper tribunal which I did. And my appeal was heard before the judge in the Upper tribunal on 3rd of February 2012.

In the meantime, I received Bachelor Degree OBU on 28th of March 2012 from Oxford Brookes University and I intended to make a fresh application again as I have an academic degree now and I made sure all the requirements are met this time. . My other concern was that I had only few days as the PSW route was closing down from 6th April 2012 and I would not be able to make the application once I go beyond 5th of April 2012. To do so I contacted Tribunals about the updates of my pending appeal following the hearing held on 3rd of February 2012 and the possible date of the out come of the decision by the judge. This was to ensure that I could know the decision before the Tier 1 Route closes down from 6th of April 2012 and allow me to have time to make the new fresh application. The clerks were unable to help as there were no updates available on my case at that time. I addressed my circumstances and enquired about the withdrawal rules and procedure .i could not withdraw my appeal as my hearing was heard already and tribunal legislation would not allow me to withdraw my appeal. nor i could wait as psw was closing down.so i made the fresh application on 5th april and wrote a cover letter to the case worker explaining my circumstances.received ack letter on 20th may nd never received my biometric.in the mean time i received the determination from UTT and i didn pursue it further..as i already made the fresh application..and when evryone started to receive their biometric i contacted ukba about mine and they said it has been sent..bt i nvr received it..despite requesting several times i never received it..and i was told to write to ukba customer complaints and i did so and received a letter that they are delaing with it..finaly on 4th october they returned my application stating that i had a pending appeal..well i had bt i could not withdraw it..as it was already heard and i explained it on my cover letter..as they took 6 months to respond and by then my appeal was closed,i dont know what to do..i went to solicitiors and was advised for a JR i lodged it and nothing heard since october..i have qualified ACCA and just dont know what shall i do..shall i wait for the outcome or leave as it is taking long time..already been 2 years..any ideas about the merit of my case?

11. Letter received from HM Upper Tribunals that appeal can not be withdrawn in respect of our request to discontinue the appeal on 13/06/2012 ( I believe there were some miscommunication between us and the clerk of the tribunal as the appeal case should automatically be closed as we did not pursue it further.
