Hi all, I applied for naturalisation back in January 2015 my application was returned refused due to deception.

This is due to the fact that I was given a police caution back in March 2013 for public disorder. pleasae read.

Reason: had a night out on my way back get into argument with securities and one threaten to take my Galaxy S2. I stood up for myself and I mentioned to call the police. they then rushed me to the ground and call the police an i was taken away. then I had some aalcohol; the next morning the police offficer was begging me to please sign his note pad and he will let me go. no bodly harm occured and I was alone.

First real encounter with the police; I also hard work later on the day so I sign thats me given caution.

following my application I honestly did not recall of that incident; the system was bias possibly and due to my frustration I forget the whole incident as quick as I possibly can which cost me my naturalisation fees plus lawyer fees.

I was then refuse naturalisation even though the caution was just under two years. on my refusal I was told any applicatio made within 10 years is likely to be refuse due to ''deception''.

I then made an application through a lawyer and spend lots of money down the drain for recondiration again I was refuse with almost the same reply as the previous.

My lawyer then encourage me to go court which I agree to unfortunately when the home office reply stating my solicitor incompetency which is due to the timing of making judicial review have lapses; I then decide is no point to go court as I will only loos more money and possibly pay for their legal cost.


I have since waited and I have no further problem with the law or police before that and after that incident that happen in March 2013.

I want to place a fresh application explaining the situation please any idea will be welcome.

being in the UK since 2004, in good relationship with HMRC tax (PAYE).

Your application is likely to be refused until 2025. You could challenge the decision in Judicial Review however, (a) it will likely be expensive unless eligible for legal aid and (b) you failed to declare a material fact that is not only explicitly requested on the form but also would have led to a refusal.

You may have a better chance having the caution quashed if you make a request to the Chief Police Officer if you did not actually commit an offence, however, i don’t know anything about your case so it’s difficult to say and you should seek specialist advice for that.
