Thank you

Thank You man. So I shouldn't even bother to enquire. Also, do you reckon they might reply any time soon. I have a CCJ from 2016, satisfied in 2017 and a few motoring offences dating back to 2013. Does that make it complex or should it be straightforward. Ihave sent them a long statement and a few s...

Hi everybody, I have applied online on the 22nd of May where I made a payment, received an acknowledgement email of payment on the very same day which was a Friday night. I was given access to UKVCAS and the application needed a referee and appointment and also supporting documents. On the 26th of M...

Your legal stay starts when you get your first residence in the UK. Provided, it's not broken later, you need to accumulate 10 years of lawful residence before applying for citizenship. The date when you made yourself known to the Home Office doesn't start the clock for your lawful residence. I was...

Also, I have read the Good Character Requirements over maybe 3 times in the past few years, I am obsessed with the matter due to my anxiety. And I was never able to understand the bit about civil matter. It just feels I am jeopardising my own application for nothing. I hope you could share any opini...

Thank You. I will go through that thread. I just wana clarify one thing. Is filling out the application and paying without uploading documents online considered a full submission or the application is deemed incomplete? I always had the option of uploading the documents although appointments weren't...

Hey, thank you for the response. I was unaware of the process. So when I finished my application on the 26th of May and paid, I was taken to the page where it said book an appointment and do the referee thing. I only uploaded my documents 2 days before the appointment so in September as I was reques...

When I was not yet accepted I did not take work as I was not allowed. I applied for public access file as the DBS ...

Thanks a lot Ouflak. The latest CCJ was for a parking ticket by a private company. I challenged the ticket and also the CCJ as it was sent to my previous address unfortunately. I paid it in full a few weeks ago and it was for an amount of 250 pounds and I have proof of my challenges and complaint ag...

Thanks for the reply. Both solicitors did not speak about the 10 years rule and did not seem bothered about it rather more concerned about my offence of the ccj. The traffic offences are 5 years old and I was between the age of 20 and 22 when I committed them. I overstayed my visa from 2009 to 2010,...

Sorry for the late response. I entered the country via student visa and went to university. It was a student visa which was valid for 12 months.I arrived on January 2008. I had a Travel Document which is issued to Palestinian refugees residing in Lebanon. I sought Asylum in March 2010 and was initia...

Hi Guys, I was granted a 5 years leave to remain back in 2011 based on my asylum claim and for humanitarian reasons. I also hold a convention travel document as I'm classed as a stateless refugee. My leave is due in January 2016, however I'm a little bit scared. Ever since I was granted my leave I h...
