Thank you for your help and agree with your advice as I didn't declare it in my ILR application and when they granted ILR then obviously they must have done their checks before granting ilr so would not like to disclose this in citizenship application either, apart from this chat I don't have any other investigations done in the past so my only concern is this chat with police I had in 2011 and nothing else.

Thanks
Which is it of the favors of your lord that ye deny.

I have read the following and belive that my chat would be held on the PND ( Police National Database) and then obviously UKBA would be able to see it, but am not sure if it is on PND or not so is there anyway to find?

http://www.parliament.uk/briefing-papers/SN06441.pdf‎


I have done PNC and Enhanced CRB(carried by employer) checks and nothing showed up but NOT sure if my PND record is clear so is there anyway to findout?and do they take into account any non-criminal information such as my chat with the officer?

thanks

A SAR from your local police station for information held on the PNC (not PND) should show up anything unless it is deemed restricted for the purpose of an investigation.

What happens if citizenship is refused? Is your ILR revoked if you are refused citizenship?

Amber are you an Immigration solicitor or deal with clients? Just curious and really appreciate your help on this forum.

Thankyou

No your ?ILR wouldn't be revoked unless you were deceptive in the ILR application. I'm not an adviser, rather, academic.

OP, you have been asking the same question since June and you have been getting told the same thing since June: you have nothing to disclose. Get a grip - you are not sounding reasonable. You have not been arrested or charged or cautioned or convicted, end of, nothing to disclose.

I know you are going to write back "but what about the PND?" You.have.nothing.to.disclose.

Navalaviator when will you allow your "little chat" to rest in peace? Many on the forum will exchange your little chat instead of an actual conviction, caution, fine, 2 FPNs and the list goes on....please let it RIP. You are stressing over NOTHING ! All the best with your application.

Chat with police could lead to refusal?

I really think you have serious mental problems. You do not need immigration advice. What you are in great need of is, is a psychiatrist's help. He might need to administer heavy electric shocks to your brain and give you sedative drugs.

For how long have you suffered with this kind condition? Some meditation and yoga could help too.

Your conviction of July 2010 MUST be declared in section 3.7 of form AN. Because the rules have changed, this kind of conviction now gets disregarded after 3 years, so you it should not have any adverse effect on your application.

You haven't mentioned cleary, but I am pretty sure in feb 2011 you got fixed penalty and a conviction through the court. If that is the case, then you do not need to declare this. You will need to send the counterpart license with your application though.

On the other hand, I think you have been totally careless that once you get convicted of an offence, and you know it may effect your nationality application, and then you go and drive a vehicle without a license.

A conviction must be declared otherwise that may be deemed as deception. Which is not only a refusal but also a 10 year ban.

lolzzzzz :lol: no offence taken at all :D

Well the reason for so much worrying is because officer took my name,address and date of birth etc. at the end of the chat and I have read in the form that as part of the checks & inquiries police is contacted (but don't know if they contact police for any pending or ongoing investigations as UKBA has access and check PNC themselves without contacting police) and was worried if my chat incident comes into light and the details of arguments as the officer took some notes of the arguments etc. on his notebook and if not disclosed then they might refuse.

so that's all what has caused me some serious anxiety and depression over the last 2 years.
:D

Well PNC is not there to record police "chats". Its PNC not a gossip magazine. If police were to record every "chat" they have with people then they will need to double their workforce.

On PNC only recordable offences are kept.

You have just made up all this scenario about you chat with police, PNC and UKBA reading that information.

Needless to say, it is just something that exists only in your brain, not in real world.

You will find the PNC holds local intelligence information such as investigations even where the person was not arrested or convicted of an offence.

Just as aside, I feel that if you want British citizenship, then it may be best just not to drive until you get it.

There is no other aspect of your daily life which has as much potential to land you with a conviction which will disqualify you for 3 years.

At least if you do drive, be careful, make sure you are insured and don't ever drive faster than speed limit + 10% + 9mph, which is where a speed awareness course offer turns into a FPN. The Scots seem more strict with traffic law enforcement than the English too, so I wouldn't drive in Scotland at all.
