Well I am totally agree and I am also in similar situation.

Recently it was other member who posted his application for refused on the ground working without permission while he applies for residance card So chances are you may get refusal since if you working between your student visa expire and getting residance card . Since they count period once you gran...

You need to get confirmation from employer
What date did they say you can apply again bc?

If you don't send passport the application will be refused so upto you what's most important for you BC or holidays

If you ring hmrc they will give you exact date in which you registered for sole trader

I advice to mention this date and if you still doing it then mention on going if you stop wrokign and reported to hmrc they will also tell you.

Mention will not harm and they don't want any proof for that

You have to tick the box and mention this, this will not effect your application

You need to put wording here so others can help

Just put end date when you making application and write note in extra sheet that it's current job

You need to select no for this question and they will ask at the end life in uk and degree

If you select yes it's only for those who don't require degree or English test ( from English speaking countries)

As Simon mentioned you have good chances now
Just add much proof as possible about that case

If you can wait then apply for reconsideration as it takes many many month

If you have money then make new application

She can travel on Pakistani passport it does not need to be 6 month valid, as long as it's valid at time of entry to paksitan she is fine.

Applied for certificate of approval in May 2009 (to register marriage here in uk) which given in in June 2009 Sent ori...

At one point you mentioned you married in 2007 and applied for residance card then you said you married in 2008 this does it make sense

Did you marry in UK?

If it was court order then your application will be refused for 3 years

After reading this I am also worried now since my case is similar but I think they made mistake by refusing application I was on asylum and then got married with eea national (proxy marriage) on January 2008 and applied for residance card in March 2008 May 2009 Applied for certificate for approval (...

But they refused his application on the basics that he was working illegally untill they issued residance card

They are totally wrong,once you apply for residance card they issue letter and give permission to work so how was he working illegally ?

Parking tickets are not issue.

FPN you have to mention them does not matter if it's 10 year old or 20

If you already sent application you can send letter to them that to forgot to mention these FPN

You need to wait 3 years from court date

Nothing can be done now

Did you mentioned that court case in your application?

When did you made application and when did you get refusal letter?

Yes it's FPN

You should declare it

It will not effect your application since you not went to court

No it will not effect you
