ILR T1 General Refused - Employment related absences

Post by Kelkay » Mon Dec 26, 2016 7:42 am

A friend's relative applied for ILR under the Tier 1 General but his application was refused on grounds that he spent some days over the maximum prescribed 180 days limit in the new Immigration Rules on employment related reasons for the absences on the very first year into the Tier 1 General Scheme (June 2011 to June 2012).

He had pleaded that when he was granted leave to enter the UK as a Tier 1 General the Immigration Rules at the time permitted employment related absences above 180 days. Also that when he was granted further leave to remain in the summer of 2013 he was not informed that the excesses on the first year would be a problem for his quest to settlement.

He further pleaded that he was not aware of the warning that Tier 1 General having any issue of excesses above 180 days was entitled to make further leave to remain by 5 April 2015 upon which he could have remedied the excesses notwithstanding that his further leave to remain was granted in the summer of 2013 until the summer of 2016.

He has also been given removal decision from the UK and appeared unhappy that the Home Office refused to accept as compelling reasons that his employment related reasons was permissible when he decided to join the Tier 1 General scheme.

Is there any possible way that he can be assisted?
