Hi there guys, sorry for the trouble again but as the date for the application for ILR is drawing near different(may be daft) questions are cropping up in my mind. My HSMP(JR april-nov) visa stamp was stamped on 18th oct 2006 but the visa started 14th of Nov 2006.(I was already incountry with PFT vi...
thanks for your reply much appreciated. I initially wanted to apply at belfast where i live but decided against it and decided to apply at places like croydon or shefield where I guess they would be a bit better experienced regarding JR cases i.e not needing LIUK, no point based etc. keeping fingers...
Hi there, will be applying for ILR in october, I think it should be a reasonably straightforward case with me being under JR(april-nov) and applying after 5 years with my wife who has been with me here for the whole 5 years and uk born child. I wanted to know what happens if in the unlikely event of...
thanks again guys for the advise, but I believe caution is different from conviction and it is indeed covered under the rehab of offender(unless its a caution which is conditional for extreme violence/sexcharge/drunk driving/driving without insurance or foreign licence) here is the link from the off...
many thanks guys thats extremely helpful regarding biometrics never had to do it during first approval or extension so is it manditory for ILR? regarding rehab of offender's act I tried to contact a few people and most of them said that there was a new act in ?2009 which makes all cautions spent imm...
Hi there, I am due to complete my 5 years under HSMP(initially granted october 2006 visa stamped within uk on 14th nov 2006: changed from post graduate doctor visa). I am trying to get organised and getting the documents ready for the application and was unsure about a couple of things 1)I fall unde...
Hi There, I would be very grateful if one of you experts can clarify a few things for me, I applied for HSMP in october 2006 and got approval, but the date on the initial stamp is 15th of november(my previous PFT visa was valid till 14th so I guess they stamped it after that): I got my extension in ...
Hi there guys, I haven't been in the forum lately and on return I appreciate the informative thread thanks guys! I was a post april06 but pre nov 06 hsmp who extended into tier 1 in 2008 under JR(5 yr one not the 4 yr one). I guess it seems to be all good news for ppl like us who: -will not hv to me...
I don't knowif i should treat this news as good or bad, I was granted hsmp in oct 2006 so was covered by JR for PR in 2011, but I guess this new declaration changes everything again.............. only if I can spend 11 more months till they decide to change the rules again!
although none of these are anything to be particularly proud off and definitely a lifelong dent in your reputation, i beg to differ with the op's idea that driving without insurance is less of a crime than a police caution for whatever reason or maybe benifit fraud, the reason being in case of the l...
does any1 know if a formal police caution(at a police station) given out of marital dispute(both me and my wife was cautioned) needs to be declared or has an ill-effect on ILR/naturilization? we didnt hav to go 2 the court or anything and no other issues. I also heard that there was a new rule which...
can anybody tell me if police caution has any effect on ILR or Citizenship? it was out of domesticviolence and both me and my wife got police caution at a police station(not verbal) thanks
I also think that illigal immigrant should be immidiately reported, its because of these kind of person the rules are getting tighter and tighter and creating loads of headache and heartache for honest and law abiding people who goes for initial visa/visa extension etc. these ppl should be stopped! ...
exactly! that was the point also made to me over the phone when i called up(see prev post) and thats why they said pre nov 06 hsmp has a so called reasonable expectation as we did not sign anything like this
i know what you mean........but that guy seemed to know wht he was talking about............maybe when we get the letter by post it would be more confirmatory........but i still do feel tht things are nowhere as bad as wht it seemed initially for hsmps so yes still i am more relaxed!
oh sorry guys forgot about one thing.........that guy from home office also said that all HSMPs who are covered for ILR and naturalization under old rule would be sent a letter by post "soon enough(??!!)" to inform them about a tentative date for qualifying for ILR, when I asked that in my last hsmp...
hi there.........I am also in the same boat got approval under old hsmp 0ct 06.......changed in country from PFT to HSMP nov 06 First extension under JR(did not need points for extension) nov 08. I was so confused and anxious I called up home office and they said that its "very clear"(???!!??) on th...
similar thing happened to me and they gave both me and my wife as police caution(at the police station) so I am very anxious abt it aswell. I am a bit surprised they took the issue to court for you unless there was something else
thanks guys............yes I got my extension under JR( not the 4 yr one but the other one) and i guess just hv to bite the bullet and go for the longer period nothing else we can do can we......
I guess this link gives us good indications of what to expect, I recived my hsmp approval oct 06 and FLR nov 13 06, I guess hopefully I am safe from the ILR point of view and fingers crossed will get ILR NOV 11 as per "reasonable expectation" clause, but still for citizenship I think I have to go th...
you have got it wrong winber.........L plate might be itself fixed penalty.........but driving without L plate when u need to means you r driving unlicenced and that automatically invalidates ur insurance WHICH is a non-minor offence so indirectly the OP commited a major offence and got his applicat...
only if I can spend 11 more months till they decide to change the rules again!
