In my opinion, you'll have to apply for a settlement visa from outside the UK. Because you'll be away for approximately 2 years you won't qualify for further leave to remain (FLR) as a spouse unless you can provide evidence of co-habitation in the UK. However, the caseworker will notice some type of ...
In my opinion, a removal notice means that no in-country appeal was given. I had my FLR(M) refused but the HO allowed me to submit a new application. I sent an FLR(FP) form because I got a 'clearly unfounded' certification (decision made in Dec 2016 when in-country appeals for family members were ...
The HO will notice you didn't pay tax from that period on. Perhaps you'll have to submit evidence that you both kept in touch while you were abroad. There's no guarantee the application will be successful though. I was here on a student visa while my husband was working abroad for a UK company and ...
I think he didn't qualify for FLR(M) as his visa was cancelled and he became a person without a valid leave. He should have submitted an FLR(FP) form, but it would have been refused anyway.
How do you know his removal has been set? Did he get an in-country appeal?
I don't know. Maybe you were supposed to be detained but you were not? People who had their FLR(FP) application refused were being detained --like me. The judge released me with citation to art 8 of the ECHR. I'm sure others have been ,..released on the same grounds. Maybe they aren't detaining ...
Can they send me home or detain me despite appealing my case? What is the worst that can happen if I go there? They can detain you if your appeal is unsuccessful. However, they will give you the chance to leave the country voluntarily. You might be able to apply from your home country. Just because ...
Well, if they only asked you about your GP, then you should be ok. Perhaps they just wanted to update your profile. Again, I don't know. Do you think it could be that they serve me the decision on that day in person even it’s a grant of leave ? Yeah, it is possible. They might just want to confirm y ...
(...) even if it means as few weeks apart. I doubt whether the application would be refused in these circumstances once an accompanying letter, explaining what happened and expressing remorse, is attached to the application. The fact they have young children must help. A few weeks? Based on the ...
We informally say 'kids' to refer to our adult children as well. Sometimes we just say children. So, doctorshelly, are your 'kids' minors? Obie says your wife won't get detained. If the application is unsuccessful I think she will be able to lodge an in-country appeal considering she didn't apply as ...
You are welcome. Did they ask you a series of questions? I can't say you'll be detained. You have to wait and see. I was released on bail because the judge was satisfied that I didn't apply as a tourist and I'm married to a British citizen in the UK. I was served with the decision on that day and ...
She doesn't say where her kids are. She did say she lived in the UK for almost 30 years. Her ILR lapsed because she spent a couple of years abroad. Anyway, based on what I saw at the detention centre and visitors' room, they detain parents of British kids who apply as tourists or are here on a ...
If the British kids are all grown up the enforcement team will detain her. I wouldn't say it's highly unlikely. I met parents of British kids (at the removal centre) who had their FLR(FP) refused -mainly because they applied for a visa without a valid leave and refused to leave the UK by submitting ...
Not necessarily. When did you send your application? They did the same to me 2 weeks before I was detained. They changed my reporting date and asked me many questions such as who my GP was, if I was feeling well and so on. When I arrived on the scheduled date/time, they detained me. But my ...
Based on my own experience, if the FLR(FP) application is unsuccessful the HO will ask your wife to go to a reporting centre where she will be detained. They've already asked her to leave the country and apply for a settlement visa from the US. She won't necessarily be removed as the officer will ...
If you successfully address all the points of refusal the decision should be overturned by the judge. The HO won't issue a visa unless your wife can prove she has sole responsibility over the care of her sons. In some countries, absent parents can have their parental rights terminated. Maybe your ...
No. I got my visa refused even though I stated that my husband worked in both the UK and Gibraltar for a UK company and his main residence was actually the UK. I submitted a new application when my husband cut ties with Spain/Gibraltar completely, but they refused my visa again (and detained me ...
HO can't dictate whether a British/EU citizen should or shouldn't search for employment. I totally agree with you. I don't think the UK government can tell their citizens where they should live with their spouses either. HO's caseworkers might think they have some kind of power or even 'delusions ...
I was detained in one of those routine visits at the reporting centre but the judge released me on the grounds that I have a valid marriage with a UK citizen. My lawyer sent a further submission to the HO straight away and my husband is also suing the HO. I would say, stick with the appeal under ...
I was detained in one of those routine visits at the reporting centre but the judge released me on the grounds that I have a valid marriage with a UK citizen. My lawyer sent a further submission to the HO straight away and my husband is also suing the HO. I would say, stick with the appeal under EEA ...
Are you saying they basically arrested you on one of your routine visits to the reporting centre? And then what - held you there at the detention centre until you were deported? Your husband was in Spain but is a British citizen? Yes, I was detained at the reporting centre and then taken to a ...
In regards to our child 'being able to adapt to life outside the UK' - do you know on what basis does a Case Worker makes an assumption that we have an option to go to another country? They will make an assumption based on the fact that you are an NZ citizen; hence, your spouse can relocate to NZ ...
A mere 'job offer' is not enough. The HO wants to make sure you'll take up an employment within 3 months of your arrival in the UK. My previous application was refused because I didn't provide evidence that my spouse was going to accept the job offer. They mentioned a lack of an official document, i ...
I believe your husband will have to appeal against the decision because any future application you guys make will likely to be refused unless the circumstance of his application change.
Did you take the EEA route? I personally know a few people who applied for a residence card. They received the approval letter, but not the BRP. It's been 4 weeks.
Does anyone know whether the 10 year route partner visa can be applied for a few months in advance of the Tier 4 running out, and in the case of the 10 year route being rejected, she can simply stay until the end of Tier 4. I'm wondering if it's worth the risk of applying as this will give us much ...
