Sarah, there is also a US-UK Extradition Treaty 2003 signed by the US and UK government, which means if your offense could result in loss of liberty for a year or more, then it will become an extradictable offense, and the American could ask the British to send you over there. I suggest you seek leg...
Just to add, say you apply for PR in 2011, you will either need to provide evidence that she was exercising treaty rights immediately before your divorce or she was exercising treaty rights and living with you up to the period leading up to your 5 years stay in the UK. When non-EEA family members en...
If you have evidence that your relationship is genuine, then you can provide that evidence and reapply, or appeal the decision. If it can be established that the relationship is genuine, then, 320(7c) will supersede 320(7a). Relocating to Ireland might be an option, but you have to be aware that the...
Irish Tom, your are obviously severly brain washed, posibly young and very antagonistic to migration, you also appear confused about the different categories of migrant into Ireland, but maybe, just maybe, some part of your brain is still open to reasoning, one can only hope. There is a clear dinsti...
The level of ignorance and stupidity possessed by lovey like you, is hard to comprehend indeed. First of all the Citizenship applicants you complained about, are all in gainful employment, and possibly subsidising towards the dole payment for you compatriots. They will not even make it through the c...
OP means Original Poster, which is a title you acquired, by virtue of being the one that opened this thread. In regards to your question, I suspect you will need to send your passport and Decree Absolute to the HO, together with evidence of your Economic Activity and that of your wife's, prior to th...
Policy is to revoke or to refuse to issue / renew a residence card in the event of divorce / dissolution of civil partnership, or when there is evidence that the EEA national has left the UK, unless the non-EEA qualifies for a retention of a right of residence. Could this not be interpreted as, som...
You will be issued with a further 5 years, when you apply for Retention of right of resident. However, this will not affect you ability to apply for PR come 2012. The existing Resident Card will be invalid after Decree Absolute has been passed, as you obtained it by virtue of being a family member o...
I believe the onus is on the student to ensure that the course they are undertaking, meets a specified criteria. How on earth can student blame the UKBA , when they participated in this fraud. These people have no proof that they went to the college, no ID card, no attendance record, no records of t...
Your are both consenting adults with a sound mind, who don't need parental or familial approval to be in a relationship. You don't need to mention your family dispute to the ECO, it is non of their business. The reason why i asked for your country of application is to check if there are immigration ...
Excellent stuff Lisa. Which country will you be applying from? I suppose if you can download any contacts you had on MSN, email contacts, letters he wrote to you, evidence you lived together when he came to visit you, your marriage plans and everything, then you stand a reasonably good chance of suc...
I am begining to feel some degree of sympathy for some victims of CCL. The problem i am having, which i think the UKBA is facing as well, is distinguishing between students who were party to the scam or charade and those who were attending courses in good faith, thinking it was a genuine programme ,...
Okay Lisa, now, have you sorted out the Maintenance and Accommodation requirements for the Visa, and can you confirm whether it is your intention to get married within 6 months of you been granted the visa. And lastly, is it Decree Nisi (First Issued, which is open to contention) that you fiance has...
It is none of the ECO business to make a moral judgment about you, or to impose his or her moral and ethical views on you, or refuse your visa on moral grounds.This is not provided for in UK immigration laws. His duty is to only ascertain whether or not your relationship is genuine. If he or she thi...

Crossing the borders What are the entry conditions for third-country nationals? Third-country nationals must: * hold a valid passport or travel document; * be in possession of a valid Schengen visa, if required (a residence permit issued by a Schengen Member State is considered equivalent to a Sche...
Please see This Leaflet on Private Fostering. You will need to ensure that proper mechanisms are in place and the council are aware of the child's presence. I am unsure on whether you will meet all the conditions stipulated in rule 246 to obtain a Access to a UK child visa. The ECO could argue that ...
Nice one. Good to learn that SOLVIT are starting to do the job for which they are paid. I am sure you can find a better thing to do with that 120euros than giving it to those incompetent embassy staff. Pocket money for your brother, or a contribution to the first shopping for your family will be a b...
The overstay or student visa refusal should not have an impact on your settlement application. You only need to focus on convincing them that your relationship is subsisting and not one of convenience, that both of you are free to get married or would be shortly, if there is a divorce nearing conclu...
UKbabble, the question here is proportionality. I know it is the duty of an immigration officer to establish the status and motives of an entrant. His or her duty is to preserve and protect the integrity of UK borders and to keep out unwanted guests, if the ECO hasn't already done so. However, there...
The age difference on its own, should not form the basis of a refusal. So long as you are over 21. For them to refuse you on marriage of convenience grounds, there would have to be other factors in addition to the age difference, which would possibly make them believe that you relationship is one of...
One has to realise that only a victim of facial discrimination would know whether or not they have been a victim of such hideous act. It might be the case that the officer was just undertaking routine checks, but the length of time he was kept at the airport before being let through, seems extremely...
Okay John, I am getting there. Ok, I have heard of cases where people were asked to withdraw their appeals before making another application, or to wait for the outcome of their appeals before proceeding with any change of status. Would it no be within the Secretary of State powers, to defer an appl...
