This is the reply to three years of waiting for reconsideration. Please kindly advice. thanks
" we have rejected your reconsideration request of (july2011)." " we will not accept any further requests to reconsider the decision made on the above application. You may wish to make a new application for leave under the current immigration rules, paying the appropriate fee, if you believe that you meets the requirements for a grant of leave. However, please be aware that following changes to the immigration rules which came into effects on 1st of October 2012, most application for further leave to remain will normally fall for refusal if the application is made after the application has overstayed their leave by more than 28days"
Briefly history- applied in 2010 using flr (0) as overstayer the application was refused on the terms that you and your child can go back home since your child is still of formative years. My daughter was 4years then, now she is 8years. Between 2010- 2013 we have update them of all changes and now my daughter is 8years. My daughter was born in the UK and has never been out of the country.
Hi kukuwife, thank goodness, for a response at least, that's another step forward on this journey. However, based on their response, I feel you should submit a fresh application with sufficient legal advice , obviously they wouldn't expect you to go anywhere else now, your child has gained roots here and knows no where else as home except here. The clause of them automatically refusing applications for overstayers of over 28 days could possibly be a scare tactic to get you to give up which is not possible at this stage! I dont really know much about these things but judging at face value, that's just my opinion, after all they do grant overstayers visas so yours would not be the first of last so all that talk of refusing over 28 days Blablablablabla is usual gibberish.
However, let's see what other experienced people have to say on the forum. I am sure you would be able to work out the best thing to do, so all the best.
Thanks Verbs, sorry for my late reply. Am doing just fine. Counting down for you already, good news around the corner.
Thanks for the shout out too Keisha, the Lord will not leave or forsake you dear. God bless.
Rina,that comment of yours made me laugh so hard, seriously I wish Ale001 could like just call these UKBA guys and say in his sternest voice ever "this is the week guys... post me my visa"
Big hugs to everyone else....God be with us all.
