NEED HELP ON VISA APPLICATION

Post by durae1D » Wed May 17, 2017 8:40 pm

HI
I'm an Indian citizen. I came into the UK on tier 4 visa (16 months validity) for my masters.
I fell in love with an EU girl in university (polish) she is a student doing bachelor's and doing part-time work and has been in the country for 3 years and we were living together for 1 year and 7 months and are not married yet.

My visa expired on Jan 31st 2017 to extend my stay I applied an FLR (FP) application on 28th Jan 2017 with the help of a legal advisor.

I got my biometric letter on 9th Feb 2017 and I enrolled for it on 12th Feb 2017

recently I consulted a few different solicitor and they said I applied for the wrong application and is being misguided.

please help me on what application I have to apply to extend my stay in the UK legally.

I don't know under what category of FLR(FP) you applied under, but the 'solicitor' gave you poor advice. This has no relevance to your relationship with an EEA student living in the UK. FLR(FP) is an application made under the UK Immigration Rules, not within the EEA Regulations.

Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.

FLR(FP) will likely fail yes and you will lose your fee paid.

For a residence card based on your EU girlfriend as a durable partner, you are required to prove 2 years evidence of 'living in a relationship akin to marriage' and she has to be a qualified person exercising treaty rights.

For FLR(FP) to succeed, your Polish girlfriend must first have acquired PR. It's impossible, as she requires at least 5 years' residence in the UK.

Unfortunately, if you haven't been living together with her akin to marriage for at least two years, then they will probably refuse an application as an extended family member.

ok thats one reason why FLR (FP) wont work.. agreed

I and my girlfriend have been in a relationship for more than 2 + years via Fb and skype etc ( she was in Uk and I was in India ) I have added that as proof of our relationship is for a long time ...
but its been 1 year and 7months since I came into the UK

will this count and make a difference??


what would you suggest me to do in my case ...
what should I apply to extend my visa

It is living together for 2 years that is required. It is not enough to be a boyfriend/girlfriend long distance relationship

the letter i received is icd 4946.
contents:
1. which has liabilty of removel stating you will not be removerd for 7 calender days after the date the letter is received .
2.consequence so overstaying.
3.help and advice.

UKVI are aware of vexatious and frivilous applications to buy time so you'll have to think again.
