Thanks for the reassurance. The maximum time spent outside the UK is less than 1 year and no time spent outside 6 months. Only concern is if i went back to my home country ( outside EU) when i was on a visitor visa does this constitute no intention to return. Could home office give this reason and r...
Thanks susdmehta.Just a bit confused with the guidelines on the ukba website which i came across.Could you shed some light on this please. 20. The leave of a person whose stay in the United Kingdom is subject to a time limit lapses on his going to a country or territory outside the common travel are...
I came to the UK on a visitor visa valid for 6 months on 22nd December 2001.Stayed here till 4th Feb 2002 and went back to my home country.I applied for student leave and came back on 5th May 2002. Since 2002 i have been extending my stay within the UK and always have spent time on holidays outside ...
Firstly there is nothing about liking or disliking a question. Its a public forum and everyone is free to do whatever they wish. I think some people should just take it easy and getting jumped up before blaming others of being EXCITED. To the OP Time and time again people ask questions which proves ...
Can you read. Are you sure you are a tier1. How did you get tier 1 is a surprise to me, when you cant read the heading of the form which clearly says what the form is for.
"Its, that case is to do with the Human Rights Act. As I have mentioned above, the HRA has nothing to do with the 14 Year Long Residence ILR Rule." The OP wants to know how he can avoid deportation as he mentioned in the post. This cade can be argued in his favour as he has a partner holding ilr and...
I am trying to find out the case reference number ( will post eventually) where the person was served deportation order and had served jail sentence for robbing at gunpoint. The person was granted ILR because he had family here even though he was an overstayer. The Ilr was granted under HRA sec 8. I...
The OP can apply under 14 year long residence.It doesnt matter if the OP was served removal papers.The 14 year long residence is for overstayers category..Please refer to the homeoffice guidelines. In a nutshell if you managed to evade homeoffice for 14 years in UK you will be eligible for ILR under...
Thanks for the reply moderator. But instead of flagging us for double postings, it would have been nice if you could have just pasted a link to the current immigration rules. This would have not only cleared the confusion but also helped other forum members in a similar situation. Also if you could ...
Sorry if this has been answered somewhete but i could'nt find a clear answer I am due to apply for my tier 1 extension in March 2012. Recently home office released a question answer clip through immigration minister Damien Green. In there he clearly states that for a Tier 1 visa holder to extend the...
"Its already mentioned in the statement of Immigration changes issued by HO on March 2010.Without Highly skilled Employment No one will get his/her extension on Tier1 General after April 2010 Job You mean march 2011 as that guidance overrides all previous guidance. Is this correct. If you have your ...
Khan u have confused me. You have said about the immigration rules published which i am not contradicting. My question is that people who are on Tier 1 since 2009 and renewal is due in 2012, are these people able to extend without highly skilled job as long as they meet the salary criteria. Now i un...
Thanks for the reply. So if i apply for ilr on long residence basis and home office cant decide in during this my Tier1 runs out, i can still file for extension. According to the rules i must apply before my visa runs out to safeguard my appeal rights. Am i understanding this correct or missing some...
I am in a similar senario and wondering if someone could shed a light on this. I finish 10 year legal stay in this country in july 2011. My tier 1 is valid till oct 2011. Can i apply for Ilr in July and if home office makes a decision well and good. My only concern is if home office doesnt make a de...
Thanks for the quick reply mate. Yes i have not spent more than 104 days out of uk. I have my file from the home office and all my visa extensions were made in time within the country. I am 99 % sure i am eligible but you know that 1% fear is bugging me. Also i am not too sure if i can apply for ext...
I am currently on tier 1 valid till March 2012. I am a bit confused as to if i should go for tier 1 extension or apply for ILR as i finish 10 years legal stay in UK in Jan 2012. I am just worried if i apply under long residence and home office didnt make a decision before my Tier 1 runs out i will l...
Correct.And record of that FPN will stay on your licence for 4 years.Therefore it is under the new criminality threshold according to the home office.All FPN'S are recorded.
Oh i see. So if tomorrow i am short of cash and rob someone at knifepoint, i can say i needed the cash so i robbed that person. I am sorry it wasnt intentional but i have done a mistake. If you drive the car sensibly and not like boy racer or try to jump red light then it wont happen. If you still t...
I didnt get your question. Either you have points on your licence for these offences or not. If not then Dont Jump Red lights and Dont cheat the insurance companies by not paying. SIMPLE. And yes if you have these offences you will not have difficulty extending but according to the new rules you won...
Dont rely on points based calculator alone,as it is a generic one.Download the form and guidance and go through it.It clearly mentioned the age criteria which applies to you.
