10 years long residence applications

[Omor4real]

please i need an advise have been in the UK since Feb 2005 student + student dependent.

My wife and I visa expired on the 31st of August 2014 and I applied for flr(fp) (including my wife and daughter will be 7 this march) to buy the remaining time. The flr (fp) was refused in November and an appeal was given. we lodge an in time appeal and still waiting for the appeal date.

These are my worries, as we are using a solicitor she said she will withdraw my appeal and leave my wife appeal appending while I apply for ILR. My wife and I are saying that can't be possible since am the main applicant, once i withdraw my appeal my wife appeal will be withdraw as well.When we put that to her she was confused as well and she said she will put FLR (M) in for her.

Also my wife have been here since 2007 and her closest chance for ILR is 10 years, if she pull out her appeal will that not give her gap and if anything happen in the FLR(M) she will not have right of appeal, pls quote me if am wrong.

Also as work place are now very much on people neck do you think is advisable to withdraw our appeal to make new application or we should just stay where we are and provide further ground for our appeal.

Another thing that am thinking i should do is probably send in my ILR while our appeal is still pending and see what Home Office will do, either way am not losing but will let them link my appeal to me now completing 10 years. please your opinion are very much appreciated.

Hello all,

I have been issued a 10 year RP stamp in October 2014 on the basis that I am a family member of a EU National (my wife is Polish)

Over the December holidays my wife and I have decided to separate and she is going back to Poland. Does the end of our relationship have an affect on my residence status?

Any advise is greatly appreciated.

I had checked with Malik Law solicitors b4 I sent my application and I was told it's not required.

There is no wonder when solicitor give wrong advice which has become now a common practice. You may only be escaped if the caseworker ignore it miraculously. Set (lr) does not ask for treaty rights but long residence guideline do indeed confirms that the caseworker usually exercise discretion to count that time legal if the EU national sponsor is exercising its treaty rights. A number of threads available where members discussed the same.

you do not need transcript as degree is more than enough plus do not forget to make photo copies of your all passport and send them along,photo copies means any visas,and stamps departure and arrival in brief and for your own record you could also make photo copy of your entire filled set lr application and keep it with your self and do not need to send photo copy of form to home office alongwith your application..

well its been confirmed over four months and you must be closer to get your approval but why dont your spare some time to ring HO and ask them whether your application has been assigned to a caseworker or if you have provided with your return envelope and you have not lost your tracking number then just keeping checking on royal mail website.

Hi Guys
i have been here before

Application sent: 10 September 2014 ( Four Months early Application varying it from Tier 1 Entrepenure application which wasn't decided from Last 16 Months)

Acknowledgement recieved after week.
No Biometric plus they asked for proof of addresses and proof that wasn't out of country after submitting previous application Tier 1 Entrepenure. Which i provided them in December.

My ten Years are completed yesterday.

My question is will they consider it according to Date of Decision or Date of Application. I never had any break or refusal in all them ten years and was out of country for 60 days in all them years.

Regards

Ramos

Hopefully soon tc everyone and good luck to all those waiting.

Salam Forum,
I sent my application SET (LR) HO today, but I didn't sent prepaid Royal mail envelop and document photocopies. However, I got photocopies of all documents for my record. I am getting confused it's not been mentioned in application regarding (Royal mail envelop or photocopies).

Thnks for Clarifying Sheraz. So shall I send them now(my wife's documents) without case worker requesting for it. And if so The EEA3 Permanent Residence card my wife got after exercising treaty rights for 5 years will be enough to prove. She got now even UK passport too. But she is not working now. So EEA3 Permanent Residency card and her UK passport is enough?
Thank You for your time.

Hi
sorry to be using this way of posting my question. i have been trying to post a question on this site but could not. i dont understand why
My question is this: i qualify for the 10 long residency visa, but my first passport got lost 8 years ago. Although i have school attendance, correspondences then from the UKBA regarding the lost of passport, P60s', some bank statements that cover the 2yrs on the passport, police report, but no council tax letters as i stayed with relations and friends. i have requested for SAR since November, not gotten a my record yet and time is running out. Can i go ahead and send the application and let them know that its one of their department that is holding the delay of the SAR? Are these documents i have enough? I am confuse as i am thinking of using a lawyer for this? any advise from anyone who has witness of can advise on a case like this
