I was wondering if some one could shed some light on what finances I would need to show regarding this application of ilr under the 10 year continuous residency. Does the £18600 apply for this application or not. Thank you.
However, to those of you who assume that I have been living here illegally, and or have been working illegally and therefore not paid tax, I say you are completely WRONG. I can confirm that I have been residing in the UK legally and I have paid, and continue to pay taxes through PAYE, annual self-a...
A discretion can be judicially reviewed. A discretion must be exercised lawfully.

You absolutely can bring a case for rejection of nationality via JR in the High Court! I've done it. Lots of times.

If it gets very long, the delay can be challenged by judicial review. You are nowhere near that length of delay, y...
Don't go straight to pre-action protocol / JR. You cannot bring a judicial review if you have an adequate alternative remedy. A right to reconsideration is a suitable alternative. So do that first. It is essential you provide clear details of when you were working (payroll, etc) considered against y...
I'm not entirely clear of the facts. See below. Your brother married in Pakistan, and his wife was a Pakistani Citizen who lives there. He is British and lives in the UK? His wife did not make an application to come to the UK as a partner. The couple were divorced - how exactly? The second marriage ...
Yes, it is. An application for ILR on the basis of long residence must show 10 years' continuous lawful residence. It doesn't matter what combination of student / work / family / S.3C leave status you had, so long as there are no breaks longer than 28 days (before Nov 2016) or 14 days (after Novembe...
