Overstayed in Student Visa by two weeks by mistake !!!

Post by niksar » Wed Sep 15, 2010 2:20 pm

Hi,
I have a serious problem. This is my 9th year running in student visa. I just got a master degree a couple of months ago and I was preparing to apply for post study work visa category. I thought my current visa was running out at end of October. Yesterday I sat down to gather documents for psw when i realised i have already overstayed by two weeks as my visa had expired at the end of August. I think i am in a deep trouble. I am not sure if there is any solutions for this. I would also like to know my chances of getting PR with the 10 yr rules though the chances are really slim.

Any advice would be really helpful and would appreciate alot.

UKBA discretion. You may try (ASAP) if you do not mind losing the fees.
