Hello all,

I recently qualified for applying for an ILR and planning to apply as soon as possible. However, there are some court judgements against me dating from 2019/2020 in Turkey. I have paid all my debts in 2021/2022 and now all accounts are closed/balances settled and court records show that I paid off all my debts.

My question is, should I disclose it? Would they be able to see my overseas records? I'm not worried about disclosing it, but more like worried about proving that I paid all balances. There are a heap of documentation, but they're quite complicated even for me and in a different language.

Would only verbal description be sufficient? As I guess if they see my records, they must see that they're settled as well, right?

Apologies, a quick correction: all those court judgements are civil court judgements for debts. All paid now.

No. Debt is mostly a civil issue and has no relevance to your ILR

Thank you, so your suggestion is not to disclose it at all?

I already answered it

Thank you for your help, but I'm unclear on one thing. In the form it especially asks for whether I got any CCJ's. You're saying it's not relevant for my ILR and I get your point, but how exactly should I answer this question then? If I should say yes, how much detail should I give ideally?

CCJ in the UK can be declared if asked. Overseas debt is irrelevant to ILR
