Fingerprint question in form SET(O)

Post by graybarry2000 » Fri Aug 10, 2012 6:49 pm

Hello,

Today I've had my application for Indefinite Leave to Remain returned to me for leaving out Questions 7 to 11 of "Section 10 - Biometric Residence Permits". Below is a link to the form for the sake of convenience:

Link

Q7: "Have you had your fingerprints taken as part of a previous United Kingdom immigration application made in the United Kingdom or abroad? Y/N"
Q8: "Give details when your fingerprints were taken"
Q9: "Give details where your fingerprints were taken, including the town or city and country"
Q10: "Give details of the British diplomatic post(s) involved in the application(s) was/were made abroad"
Q11: "Do you have a medical or physical condition which may require special arrangements for your biometric features to be recorded? Y/N"

I did not answer these questions because I had already provided ALL information on my Biometric Residence Permit. It seemed to me like Q7-11 assumes that the applicant doesn't already have a Biometrics Permit. Unless I have misunderstood Question 7, I have not given my fingerprints for any other purpose but to create my Biometrics Permit hence why I ignored it in the first place. I entered the UK under a UK Ancestry Visa and the application process did not involve any fingerprints.

Have the Home Office made a mistake? Do I need to answer Yes or No to Question 7?

Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Your english is very good.
Just read the question and work out what it means.
Just answer the question based on facts, and without using your mind's unnecessary analysis.

Thanks for the reply. If things are as black as white as they seem then I should have just answered NO, but does anyone have any input on what they would consider a "previous UK immigration application" to be? My previous Biometrics application was to extend my stay in the UK - does it not fall into this category?

Any input would be appreciated as I can't afford to make another mistake.

Did you make your previous application to UKBA/home office ?

What kind of applications do you make to UKBA/home office? Is it immigration applications?

Or do you send council tax discount applications to UKBA/home office?

Can you send driving license applications to immigration department of any country? Which country is that? UK? or cuckooland?


Let me know what you think.

Some mental health professionals are doing a research into "why and how immigrants loose their marbles" . They are finding a lot of material from this forum.

Should we have a "report this person" button on this forum?
