Urgent guidance needed!
Posted: Sat Apr 19, 2014 5:35 am
Hi Guys
Just sent my application through NCS on 17th april 2014 and realised now that i might have done a mistake
i was convicted of driving without insurance in 2007 on my provisional license at that time,don't even remember the date now or month probably july august or september (driving a friends car with him with the L plate with over 3 years of his license but he didnt have insurance(long story not his fault) but i got the blame for it
anyways i was fined something around £250-£300 and 6 points on the license in court,i passed my driving test later but the points stayed on for a while i think until 2011,i was married to an eea national on dec 2007 and i remember on the form applying for a residence card( 5 years ) i declared my conviction but at the time of applying for permanent residence i didn't say yes to any convictions as there was a note in the guidance as for spent convictions so i didn't declare it,and got my permanent residence without any problems
i got my permanent residence in april 2013
problem is i have declared no to any convictions on the form AN
now i read in the post somewhere that u have to declare any spent or unspent conviction,and if you don't then your application might be refused?
this freaks me out a bit as no deception is being involved here,only a matter of not properly reading or understanding the question probably,and not even remembering that i had some conviction until now
is there any way to contact home office and if it is,should i ? shall i write them a letter or email is better?any address?
dilema is due to easter holidays my application is still with royal mail waiting to be delivered..
