Hi folks,
I thought i'd share my case. It's not a enterpreneur, it's tier 1 general, but I had second extension refused in a very obvious error and decision was co incompetent in itself, it could have been written by a 5-year old.
decision was made 2 weeks before my visa expired, no right of appeal, got all documents back, including passports and obviously documents that were actually subject of dispute
i filed for permission to apply for JR, and crown solicitors conceded the case, secretary of state agreed to reconsider decision if i withdraw the JR application (to which i agreed). they even volunteered to reimburse my filing fees.
my question is, how are they going to reconsider anything at all, if they don't have any of my original case documents? I suspect they might not even have copies, this caseworker was so incompetent it's priceless. from your folks experience, will they now write to me asking for those documents back? what's the expectation here?
also, to your knowledge what is the timeline from the settlement to reconsideration?
last question, as far as I manage to understand, now that the decision is withdrawn (although they never used these specific words, they only said "undertakes to reconsider"), would i be right to assume that i have 3c leave then? (i filed an in-time application, and the decision that had been made before visa expiration is now withdrawn, they are now considering a new decision, therefore the application is pending again, so I have 3C leave). did anyone have trouble proving this?
