Came in UK 14 September 2003 on visit visa
Got job offer from a restaurant, applied work permit through them in December 2003. My solicitor said he is applying HSMP for me and the receipts I have got show that he should apply HSMP for me but he did apply work permit.
Got first refusal letter from Home Office, solicitor he sent for reconsideration
After that he said when home office will tell him he will tell me.
He then said he will send my passport to my home country and apply visit visa again for me , once I get it I can go back and travel to UK again.
And he will apply fresh case of HSMP now. I agreed, he some how sent it to my country applied my visa, but then letter came to my home to collect it but I was here in UK.
Since 2004 my passport is with UK embassy in my country which is expired now.
After few months I came to know my solicitor is a fraud, he had all my files and papers.
I then tried to contact him but he shifted his office where I don’t know.
Without knowing if my work permit was granted or no I worked for the same restaurant.
Got arrested in June 2008 over a fight you can say. Police checked my immigration status and said they are arresting me because of staying here illegally, few hours later immigration officer came and interviewed me, also showed me copies of my passport with refusal the one was applied in my country. I told them the place I work for and work permit has also been applied, told them who my solicitor was, and I was released within 24 hours, saying I was clear. Till today I don’t know what my status is.
Went to another solicitor, he said I am illegal here I was lucky enough they released.
Got married to a woman in 2008 who had ILR that time,
now she has got British passport, I have got two girls from her born in 2009 and 2010 they both are off course British.
Wife is on benefits and can’t work because of three kids.
My parents don’t know about this marriage and I think I would not be able to tell them at all for family reasons. Her parents know but they don’t speak to me.
Because she was married to some one else before and has got a boy 9 years old from her previous husband. She was separated from her ex husband long ago because her husband got married to someone else.
Now I don’t know what to do, which type of case to apply,
DL or partners or on the basis of my daughters or legacy if I can being living in here since 2003, can I not blame immigration office why was I released in 2008 if I was illegal?
Can I not blame my solicitor who kept all my papers, promised me applying HSMP but applied work permit and didn’t tell me anything.
Or I should go back to my country and apply but there I will get this problem that my passport is with them, they are going to ask why I didn’t get it back.
I am really stressed out about this because now I have got a family and kids.
Any suggestions please will be appreciated.
