There may be some but I have not seen any instance where a formal refusal letter was issued on the spot at PEO. Even if someone is verbally told of refusal he gets a standard letter stating that “your application is valid but there are further enquires that need to be made on your case -----“. Take ...
From 4 Oct 2011 till date it is too much time to issue a formal refusal letter as no other issue was involved. Consider sending a politely worded complaint through post (instead of email) regarding the standard of service at PEO - by using the form provided by UKBA. http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk...
Instead of paying premium fee for FLR Tier 1 (HSMP) as well as fee of solicitor it would be better to send postal application. Postal FLR Tier 1 (HSMP) is normally decided within 4 weeks. PEO staff is not well versed with FLR Tier 1(HSMP) as now such cases are very rare at PEO. In addition send reco...
If you applied for Tier 1 in India in June 2009 under Para 44 of HSMP JR Policy Document of 2008 than all the period between two leave spent in India would be treated as leave towards ILR as per Para 50(b). Hence you have continuous stay in UK for ILR in 2012.
One should give complete facts.
Latest feedback indicates that case worker did not consult senior for using discretion. This is contrary to normal procedure/published guidance and as such not fair. Moreover case worker should have obtained/retained documents mentioned by you especially if case was being sent to refusal team. As pe...
Recently there are increasing instances where ILR case was not processed at PEO same day service and applicant waited/waiting for weeks for positive or negative decision. There is a mechanism through which that waiting period can be curtailed and it is better than the hustle of involving MP. If one ...
It appears you have still leave to remain in UK under Tier 2 (ICT) and that is why has not got right of appeal on ILR refusal. Denying ILR on job related absence of 123 days at a time appears harsh especially when you are continuing with same employer and over all absences are not too much. But sinc...
What is the validity date of your current visa?
If they give you extension to aggregate absences than you would be lucky one - may be the first instance on this board.
Discard covering letter about absences Prepare continued sheet as a 5 column chart to be attached with SET(O) in-between page 9-10. In section section 6.2 of SET(O) write " Chart attached ". I have filled in first 2 entries Continuation Sheet of Page 9 (SET O) – With entry/exit date stamp page numbe...
UKBA website says that PEO same day service is not available for HSMP extesion but two such examples are available and one of them had sought and got second extension:
Congratulations. Very good news for those afraid of raising issues with UKBA. Another aspect of this post is use of MP. Immigrants are hesitant of joining any political party of UK. Whereas when they register for vote shortly after arrival in UK (though not for voting but for other reasons) they sho...
Considering your play safe psyche fallowing sequence can be appropriate: 1. Send reconsideration request as soon as possible – no response is expected but sending it would be advantageous. 2. Send postal application shortly before expiry of leave – as mentioned by sushdmetha due to section 3C stay a...
It appears that: -Drink n driving was one of charge. -For which he was suspended from driving for 18 months. -Court merely wrote that "suspension" has been spent (not the conviction) and returned the international driving permit. Conviction has not been spent - No chance of appeal. Why not to report...
Second extension should be for 3 years but there are instances wherein extension of 2 years was given. You can apply for ILR in Oct 2012 requesting use of discretion by aggregating your absence of 8 month if you can file some evidence of compasionate circumstances. Without evidence there is no chanc...
Yes. May not work but is wroth trying in March 2012 instead of waiting for Feb.2015.
Even as suggested by you JR is also wroth trying - he can withdraw that if it goes to hearing to keep the cost at minimum. As per your assessment UKBA would concede at an early stage.
Sorry to hear that. There is no consistency in UKBA on this issue. There are instances on this board where business related absences of more than 90 days at a time were disregarded. Since you have leave hence there is no right of appeal and this refusal would reset your ILR clock from 5 Feb 2010. Th...
As per your posts you applied ILR on 7 Sep 2011 at PEO and your application was sent to refusal team due to a longer absence. On refusal you filed appeal and hearing was scheduled around 10 th Nov.
Congratulations and thanks for compliments.
Absences is a major issue in some of the cases and a routine type of employer letter just mentioning the dates is not sufficient.
I think that earlier template made sticky needs replacement with your one.
