Re: Unsuccessful applications

Apologies for posting on here. I had made a previous post that my naturalisation application was refused November 2019 (https://www.immigrationboards.com/british-citizenship/bc-application-refused-t292432.html). I want to provide an update. I decided to do a reconsideration and sent it in March 2020...

Re: BC Application refused

Thank you very much. Makes more sense now. However back in 2012, I did apply for PR with those documents incl letter from Step mother as she had left UK with 2 half sisters. They still refused and stated that I should apply under private life which I did. So for the sake of 3 months from June 2012-...

Re: BC Application refused

Thank you so I do need to get a solicitor with this. Perhaps, perhaps not. You need to prove that you acquired PR automatically or retained the right of residence before your father divorced your Swedish step-mother. If you can prove that, then you were never illegally resident in the UK and you wo...

Re: BC Application refused

they got married in 2003 Assuming that their marriage was recognised in the UK (and I assume that from the fact that they had to get divorced), you should apply for a PR Card based on your ex-step-mother exercising treaty rights for any five year continuous period between 2003 and 2010 and on you b...

Re: BC Application refused

The mistake there was that you allowed your 5 years RC to expire before making a new application...I'm talking out of experience. I don't see you winning the appeal.i know it's frustrating but personally I would advise you to wait till 2013. But wait and hear from Obie and other gurus on here. yes ...

Re: BC Application refused

When did your father marry your Swedish step-mother? When did they divorce (the approximate month/year of the decree absolute)? Do you have proof that you were dependent on your Swedish step-mother from 2011/after your 21st birthday? Hi, they got married in 2003 and I believe divorce started in 201...

Re: BC Application refused

Your 5 years PR expired in June 2012 and then you made a new application in September 2012, To me that looks like you were in the country illegally between June when your pr expired and when you made a new application in September. That may have have affected your good character. probably that's wh...

However, I have a letter from the home office stating that I could work. How o...
