Hi all I got a rejection email today, and I says. "You were asked to provide information pertaining to any criminal convictions or cautions in your application. This was also your opportunity to submit information in support of your good character. However, it is noted that you did not declare the ...
it would be in my maidan name while all of my life here in the UK is in my new surname after marriage, this must create a havoc. Can you not enclose your marriage certificate to gain a passport in married name? This is how it usually goes, when applying for a passport in a few European countries th...
Dear All Not sure if I should post this post into another location, if so sorry and kindly move it to the relevant area. Has anyone have this situation, their life in the UK is in their married surname or even first name (i.e. EUSS, ILR, Driving Licence, banks etc and their passport is in their Maid...
A decent solicitor once told me that the Good Character is only a guideline/policy and not a law, hence in his opinion it could be argued with HO. Not sure how achievable that is, but I may need to go back to him. Having said that, I have seen many cases granted with Criminal Record that is even mor...
Just to add that I have also treated myself from Gambling which was the reason for all of problem and the 2 offences that I have done, I lost my own money and did the above, yet I paid it back, treated myself, volunteered and become good with business, not sure what I could do more. If anyone think ...
Your first conviction was for fraud. This is taken very seriously by government departments. What is the second conviction for? theft from employer, but what I want to highlight here is that both offences where identical, CPS choose to give them different charges You have two custodial convictions ...
You had two very long sentences in the last 10 years, it sounds like you already made up your mind, but I would say you have better chances in 2027 when it's been 10 years, and even then it may be still held by the caseworker that the balance of probability leans towards you reoffending. If you do ...
Dear all I have received my rejection today which was somehow expected but with the latest guidelines from the 31st of July 2023, I would appreciate your views on when you think I can reapply as I am struggling to know. Applied in Sep 2023 and rejected today. Reasons for decision One of the requirem...
It is tough to be fair and I agree with the comments about regarding your covering letter, I would imagine you have needed a lot stronger one in place and a stronger case put together. I would for sure consult with an immigration solicitor on the next step. I wish you all the very best. Will you kin...
Agreed with the above. As per the old policy for the good character, an imprisonment sentence of less than 12 months is spent after 10 years from the end of the sentence.
I agree with contorted_svy. Although it is a clean cut as per the case worker, it says to Feb 2014 so to Feb 2024 is 10 years, if you are to apply before I would say do it next month.
You can apply for enhanced DBS check or SAR from the ACRO, this is the Police computer records which will show you everything on it too, link https://www.acro.police.uk/s/acro-services/subject-access Would that include the length of the sentence, as opposed to the length of time served? The SAR fro...

I'm pretty sure and convinced how long I was convicted and I have a prison record documents with my prison number (not name on It)and my sentence is explain on it. I have been ...
Hi all I have applied for Naturalisation on the 31/04/2023 and received refusals on the 27/04/2024. Reason below am not satisfied that you are of good character. The good character guidance (http://www.gov.uk/government/publications/good-character-nationality-policy-guidance) explains how good char...
The new rule don't mention 10 year, do they. They seem straightforward as below: Overview Having a criminal record does not necessarily mean that an application will be refused. However, a person who has not shown respect for, or is not prepared to abide by, the law is unlikely to be considered of g...
You were convicted on 31 March 2009 at .... Crown Court. ... Problem is I have been convicted at that date exactly but for 6 months. And was held in prison at the end of sentences till 10 October 2009. The crucial question is how long was the sentence passed down by the court, not how long you serv...
