Flr fp 5 year

Post by ssasi2020 » Wed Jul 29, 2020 9:50 pm

Sorry guys, i changed my mind (too risky) so decided to go for flr fp 5 year parent route. So i am posting here from now on.
I have a question,
rule says " general ground for refusal do not apply to an application under Appendix FM, Except 320(3),(10),(11).
320(3)and (10) are regarding valid identity but 320(11) says -
(11) where the applicant has previously contrived in a significant way to frustrate the intentions of the Rules by:
(i) overstaying; or
(ii) breaching a condition attached to his leave; or
(iii) being an illegal entrant; or
(iv) using deception in an application for entry clearance, leave to enter or remain or in order to obtain documents from the Secretary of State or a third party required in support of the application (whether successful or not);
and there are other aggravating circumstances, such as absconding, not meeting temporary admission/reporting restrictions or bail conditions, using an assumed identity or multiple identities, switching nationality, making frivolous applications or not complying with the re-documentation process.

I have a breach but i dont have other aggravating circumstances. Does that mean i dont fall under 320(11).
Thank you.

You will need a formal lodger agreement and home inspection report from any reasonably established estate agent. Also check whether the property is HMO.

Speak to your local letting agent who might do same at significantly lowered cost than that. But first take permission from your landlord.

Talk to them in person and most of them might visit you in minutes. Most don't advertise it online.

Hi,
I am going to the estate agent tomorrow to see if they carry out 'house inspection report' for immigration purpose or not. Its a small town so if they say they haven't done it before but they are happy to report one for me, what information must include in the report? Is there any template that i can suggest them to follow?
Thank you.

There is no fixed template. It usually describe the description of property and list down of all occupiers with their location of rooms in the property. And most importantly confirms that there won't be any overcrowding with the arrival of extra occupant. Ideally let aware to all occupants in advance so that they don't get astounded at later.

Thank you. Does it require room size measurements too ?

Only those rooms having at least the size of 50 square feet will be counted. Also if the landlord/other lodger is living along with their family then property may become HMO.

In that case HMO licence will be needed. As per your first post there is one landlord, you and another lodger is living and if that's the case then no HMO licence will need. Otherwise if they are living with their family which you haven't yet confirmed then its HMO (same as said earlier).

Hi,
Today i went to 3 estate agent and all of them said they don't do inspection report in relation to immigration! They were like 'its something unheard of'. I guess local council is my last resort.

No harm in trying them but speak first to your landlord same as advised earlier because most landlords usually are reluctant to face them due to their formidable inspection.

Is gas safety certificate is mandatory for house inspection report?
Council is asking for it and saying it needs to be dated in last 12 months.
Do private inspection body ask for this certificate that dated in last 12 months?

Thanks
