If has already reported these incidents to visa office, will it affect me getting visa?

He said that he would ask to cancel visa, I am not sure if this has already been done or not.

If a report has already been made, is it likely that my vignette visa might be refused?

If he has reported the breakdown of the relationship, then yes you might not get a single entry visa vignette or if you get one, you might be denied entry to the UK and sent back to Pakistan.

Is there a known time from visa office from the day of reporting before they action on it? Or is it instantaneous?
Is there anything else that can be done from here?

Hello,

I wanted to see if somebody has been in the same situation as me.
I have applied for the ILR SET(Domestic Violence).
I would like to see if you can share with me your processing times. The waiting time without a feedback from Home Office is a total nightmare.

My case:
10/07/2018: Application submited
23/07/2018: Biometrics letter received and biometrics taken the same day at the Post Office.

How long did you wait for your result (was it positive, negative?)

Thank you a lot!
Hi is there any one who can guide me what documentary are required for ilr on basis of domestic violence

Hi, same here been waiting. My solicitor informed me that she has received a letter from Home Office asking for further documents with regards to MARAC as they did not find it being attached to the list of documents being submitted.

The letter was dated on 28th of August and they receive the document on 4th of September, since then no news

How about you?
When did you submit your application and the date of the letter you received from Home Office?
Did you track the mail?

Hi,

Sorry for the late reply, the agency for domestic violence should advise you on this as they are the one who is going to refer your case to MARAC and if your case fall onto their criteria then you will receive a MARAC letter.
I hope this helps.

Good afternoon,

Just to help people out....I have finally received notice that my ILR(DV) visa has been granted. I used an Immigration solicitor in my submittal, had fairly good evidence, own a business employing 14 people full time, North American, parent to a British minor, etc. and still it took approximately 3 months and 3 weeks to get approval.

After the first two weeks of waiting, there was a request to deal with the biometrics. After that there was no communication at all until last week when there was some more information regarding the abuse organizations that I had been in contact with.

Very grateful that I used an immigration solicitor to help with all of this. Have had to deal with the Home Office many times over the last 7 years and without a good solicitor, you are a sitting duck.

Now, I have to think carefully about my next steps. Worrying about getting kicked out of the country has now been somewhat taken off the table.

Hello
Good to hear that you got positive feedback. I am at same situation and need to apply soon. Could you please tell which solicitor you used? Thanks

Dear all

I thought i update the timeline of a friend.

Dv iLR applied : September 2019. ( proof of DV including police report. Report from victim support. Report from GP. Report from homeless charity that he is staying with them at a men refuge centre. )

HO requested updated in march 2020 asking for updated police report and his current residential status if he was still staying at the refuge. Also requested is updated doctors report.

His fees was waved off since he had no means to pay.

20th may. Received email from caseworker ILR granted. And BRP on its way.

Finally his message to all victims of DV is keep strong faith in Uk justice system and get all the evidences in place. Any questions i will be happy to lass it over to him.

Hello Good to hear that your friend received positive result.
Could I please ask what was the outcome of the police report ? did they charge your friend's partner ?

I am at the same situation and received police report back. Not very happy with the report and wording used in this. They put common assault and battery and closed the case. Just wondering it might effect the set dv case.

All what i got was a letter from HMRC saying that the home office have confirmed that i am habitually resident in the UK and my universal credit payments should continue because they have granted me indefinite leave to remain. This has confused me because its been 3 months since that letter and still haven't heard from home office.
And yes i have applied for DDV concession first then SET DV
Thanks for your reply.

That's quite weird as how come the HMRC confirmed your application for ILR but the Home Office has not confirmed it yet.

When did you receive the letter from HMRC,
What do you mean by habitual residency
When did you apply for DDV? And how long did you wait for their response?
Did you apply for ILR straight after receiving DDV?
When are you applying for citizenship or naturalisation if ever you have the positive result of your ILR set DV application? Is it after a year?

Sorry if I have so many questions.



Hope it will be over soon. Please let me know when you receive your application result.

Thanks again.
