I am posting this on behalf of my friend.She is on Tier 1 General Visa..and was issued court summons for fare evasion on London Underground...

She pleaded guilty to it (Aug 2012) and will get fined by the court...I know while filling the form for ILR she would need to declare it...but I wanted to confirm if this comes under Rehabilitation of Offender Act and how much time would she need to wait to apply for ILR (1year or 5year)..

Her ILR is due in May 2014...please help...

Tell your so-called friend to pay her fare like everyone else. And that she has to wait 5 years for before she can be considered for ILR.

So it means it comes under Rehabilitation of Offender Act..I thought it was reduced to 1 year isn't that the case...
