HI Friends

Can you anyone explain had i broken section 3c immigration act 1971

i had tier 2 general till 30/06/2016 but i submitted a Tier 1 application on 6 April 2016 and this application was refused on 30 January 2017, with the right to request an Administrative Review (AR) then i requested an AR on 11 February 2017. However, the original refusal decision was maintained on 10 March 2017.

Home office told me to apply new visa or to go back then i submitted an application for FLR-FP on 22 March 2017 and that i varied on 08 Nov 2017 as i completed 10 years on that day and i have done postal application.

i am not sure if i broke 10 continuity as i got Refusal of Administrative Review (AR) and at that time my visa ran out on 30/06/2016 but my application was in process from 06/04/2016.

can you please share some information on my case?

thank you.

You applied within 14 days and then varied such application to ILR, so the time spent overstaying will be disregarded under 39E provisions. So there is a chance for SET(LR ) to succeed

I have got same issue, but as i have learnt, its broken, but a good solicitor can rescue with 39E. its very tricky. majority of solicitors don't know of this. sadly it happened in our case.

Presumably your post is directed to user 'shah_143', who DOES NOT have PM access.

You should also note that posting about trying to send unsolicited PMs to members could result in your PM privilege being withdrawn permanently.

Hi Khan881

can we discuss on here?

i have made application now so i dont think i can change this.

also Home office should know about this rule so they should not refused. incase if they do i will go fight for it.

i am hoping for the best.

Thank you.

I went to solicitor and been told clearly that u have broken the HO rule, so best option to go for appeal against this on the basis of human rights.
if u put new application, it will have same impact as u have already broken 10 years. so result will be same, best to go for appeal.

Applications for leave to remain: validation, variation and withdrawal wrote:Example scenario 3
An applicant submits application A out of time. They then submit application B before application A has been decided.
An applicant cannot be granted more that one type of leave at a time. Where 2 applications have been submitted out of time, the second application will be considered as a variation of the first application.

as per decision received by HO, out of time application has been made after Admin Review refusal, though application was made within 14 days. their point is: "time expires within 2 business days".

hi Khan881 this is joke by home office. they want people to suffer when they know 39E applies.

i still haven't got any decision so i have to wait until they take decision.

only down point is i havent got right to work at the moment which i am worried.

thank you.

I had a similar situation like you.mine was refused in a month time .

Regarding my case :my appeal rights concluded and I made an intime (14days )actually in 2days I didn’t wait 14days and then varied it to ILR as I finished my 10years and got refused .HO says I’m an overstayed since my Appel rights ended,what’s the point of 39E then and why did they allow me to make an application nearly £2300 and refuse it if they know the result already .?my solicitor says they done a mistake and he is hopeful to win the case .not sure what’s gonna happen.

Good luck with your case ,I really hope u get it

Immigration rules part 7, paragraph 276B(v) clearly mentions that paragraph 39E applies for any current period of overstaying when application was made on or after 24 November 2016:
276B. The requirements to be met by an applicant for indefinite leave to remain on the ground of long residence in the United Kingdom are that:
.
..
....
......
(v) the applicant must not be in the UK in breach of immigration laws, except that, where paragraph 39E of these Rules applies, any current period of overstaying will be disregarded. Any previous period of overstaying between periods of leave will also be disregarded where –

(a) the previous application was made before 24 November 2016 and within 28 days of the expiry of leave; or
(b) the further application was made on or after 24 November 2016 and paragraph 39E of these Rules applied.
The date of the ILR application (upon variation of the previous leave) will be assumed to be the same as the date of the previous application. Thus the ILR application was made within the timeframe set under paragraph 39E (within 14 days of section 3C coming to an end) and therefore such current period of overstaying must be disregarded

Hi Sunny024,

they haven't sent any communication to me yet apart from Bio-metric letter and its almost 3 months now.
HO know all the rules but they want us to suffer after reading 39E i can say we both are on same boat.

my FLR FP was pending for 9 months when they knew i was overstayed which as per the rule 39E is disregarded.

i am thinking to involve my MP in this so i get decision quicker.

i can just say dont loose hope and keep faith things will work out.

thank you.
