ILR Replacement: will conviction cause ILR revoked?

Post by PunjabGuy » Wed Jul 06, 2022 3:12 pm

I have a conviction to community service 5 years ago. It has been spent.

Now my 10 year BRP need to be renewed. Will the conviction cause my replacement application refused?

How could I appeal?

Unlikely.

How long will it take to replace BPR (ILR visa)?

Post by PunjabGuy » Wed Jul 13, 2022 10:31 pm

10 years BRP card expired. Just handed in all documents for renewal.

How many weeks will it take to receive the new BRP? Is there any speedy service?

Actually I planned to travel in August. Very worried about its process.

You might want to consider changing your travel plans. It definitely can't be ready in August. A couple of months at the earliest, which isn't guaranteed.

BRP application is not an immigration application. There is no priority service at all. It can take up to 6 months. You should have applied six months ago rather than waiting for it to expire. There are many many topics here that covers this

Urgent help please: should I report spent convictions?

Post by PunjabGuy » Fri Aug 12, 2022 11:39 pm

I am submitting an application to replace my expired BRP card (ILR settlement visa).

The online form asks if I have criminal convictions. Should I report any spent convictions?

The UKVI question is as below,
"At any time have you ever had any of the following, in the UK or in another country?
- A criminal conviction
- ... ..."

If you had criminal conviction then you are obliged to disclose them, answer is in question itself.

I heard some people got their new cards in 2 weeks. Could that be true?

Just doubt if I got something wrong - no confirmation letters, and no feedback from UKVI so far, after 8 weeks.

Unlikley. BRP replacement takes much longer than that.
