You're not very clear. Did the court issue the fine and points, if do when? Have you requested a disclosure Scotland certificate to see if you having convictions recorded? You could also do a SAR request from the police for pnc data. However, if the court issued the fine and Points if will be on a disclosure Scotland certificate a basic check shows unspent convictions.

Disclosure Scotland is no very reliable for doing criminal record check. They often list traffic offenses but it's not criminal record.

Better order SAR or ACRO police certificate. It should not be recorded.

Search this forum for previous messages about it. Mine too.

I don't think they refuse it. But better prepare your application well and if you worry, why not hire good solicitor, just in case. It should not be a problem but solicitor may help avoid any rough misinterpretations, etc.

iv) they have, within the 24 months preceding the date of the application, been convicted of or admitted an offence for which they have received a non-custodial sentence or other out of court disposal that is recorded on their criminal record.

Refusal of leave to remain, variation of leave to enter or remain or curtailment of leave
322. In addition to the grounds for refusal of extension of stay set out in Parts 2-8 of these Rules, the following provisions apply in relation to the refusal of an application for leave to remain, variation of leave to enter or remain or, where appropriate, the curtailment of leave:

Grounds on which leave to remain and variation of leave to enter or remain in the United Kingdom are to be refused

(1) the fact that variation of leave to enter or remain is being sought for a purpose not covered by these Rules.

(1A) where false representations have been made or false documents or information have been submitted (whether or not material to the application, and whether or not to the applicant's knowledge), or material facts have not been disclosed, in relation to the application or in order to obtain documents from the Secretary of State or a third party required in support of the application.

(1B) the applicant is, at the date of application, the subject of a deportation order or a decision to make a deportation order;

(1C) where the person is seeking indefinite leave to enter or remain:

(i) they have been convicted of an offence for which they have been sentenced to imprisonment for at least 4 years; or

(ii) they have been convicted of an offence for which they have been sentenced to imprisonment for at least 12 months but less than 4 years, unless a period of 15 years has passed since the end of the sentence; or

(iii) they have been convicted of an offence for which they have been sentenced to imprisonment for less than 12 months, unless a period of 7 years has passed since the end of the sentence; or

Chill out man

Even if they refuse, you will have right of appeal, it would cover your time until it is over 24 months.

I don't think you will need it but if worse comes to worse you will be fine anyway cause you will stay legally beyond 24 months after traffic crap.

So just apply and if they refuse appeal. Then 24 months will pass anyway.

So chill out man. You will get your ILR very soon anyways.

When you will fill out your form, disclose this offence and put date of offence as 31st Jan and you will be fine. You already have passed 24 month period
