caught driving Uber

Post by rommy » Tue Jun 03, 2025 1:39 pm

Hello everyone,

One of our friend who is currently on work permit in UK got caught driving Uber last night.

He recently passed his driving license and has been driving Uber using some else Uber ID. Last night he was stopped by police. They gave him 6 points and immediately revoked his driving license.

What effect this will have on his future visa & ILR application?

Thanks

That must be declared under the driving/motoring offences within the forms to extend their visa, ILR, etc. A driving licence revocation means a serious offence.

Unsure how UKVI would see the breach on their immigration status - a work visa only allows to work for the visa sponsor. Plus working under another person's name is fraud (and illegal).
