preparing for appeal help pls

Please i need advice on what should my witness statement focus on. My flrfp application refusal statement or my additional ground that have completed 10 years.

My problem is my solicitor and i know we will be parting ways soon, am preparing for my appeal and i want her to prepare my bundle but she keep saying am going to lose the appeal because my defense is not strong enough (she is doing this because she want me to withdraw my appeal to create way for my ILR application that is with HO).

She is saying my witness statement should focus on the reason HO refused my Flrfp and not to talk about how am entitled to settlement through long residence and am asking her that what is the essence of additional ground.

Please note have recently sent additional grounds to both tribunal and HOPO regarding 10 years as this was done by me with the help of the forum and i also have an ILR application with HO which they've replied me that they've linked it with my appeal, but they didn't return document or money.

Also in the letter that i received from HO it stated that i should send the details about completing 10 years to tribunal as variation of ground; does this simply mean i should focus my ground of appeal on my 10 years lawful residence and when do someone ask for variation of grounds.

On what basis u apply flr fp?

Zee Ali i applied based on my private life and on the refusal HO said they don't think i can not integrate back into my country as i still have strong ties there and

i didn't provide evidence to show that i won't be able to take care of my children in my country and that their are good schools in my country for my child to attend.

Also they know that moving back will be stressful, but they think i can help my children to integrate into my country. Hence i should go back to continue my family unit thereby protecting my private life.

So i want to prepared a witness statement to address what they said, by showing them that have build a more stronger tie here, integration will be hard for the children, disruption to their education, not financially sound to help smooth transition in terms of housing, school etc. The child is now 7 years and have also completed 10 years lawfully.

pls any advice or contribution will be highly appreciated.

Surprising that your lawyers thinks you will not succeed.

If at the time of the hearing, you have acquired relevant 10 years residence, that will be a factor that will be considered by the judge.

He could consider making findings in regards to that or remit it to the Home Office.

Hi Omor4real, I know it's been a few years now since you posted this but would you be able to share how you got on with the preparation of your bundle?



Many thanks!
