Hello everyone,
I am first time posting here and seeking for help urgently.
My situation is I am on tier-2 dependant visa husband got ILR this year Jan and I am going to apply for ILR for myself and my son in next month.
In short story, in december 2014 I was accused in shoplifting in M&S. They called the police and in the shop they filled one form and asked me to sign. Police take my information as name and address. but he believed that there was no my mistke so he just gave me caution and said I am not charging you anything at the moment but your records will be with us. and he let me go.
Later after almost 2 weeks I received one letter for £80 fine as retailer protection loss or something really do not remember. But letter was wronly addressed as Mr.xxx xxx |(My firstname and midlename). So I went to citizen advice beuro. I expalined them my situation and showed them that letter. They said first of all letter is wronly addressed to Mr. and you are Mrs. also name even though my first name and middle name was correct no where it says that it is for you. so just ignore it. If they send another letter then will see.
But after that till date I have not received any letter yet. Does this mean complaint against me is still open? Its been now almost 3 years to this incident. Within this period I switched my job twice , we moved to different city, also did my tier-2 extension and biometric successfully.
So now while applying for ILR do I need to mention this incident under any criminal or civil offence? Or need to provied any extra covering letter to explain this?
On this forum I have read that if the coution is within 24 months ILR get refused but for me its now 44 months so what should I do? I am doing ILR application for myself and my son so will if affect his application as well? My husband is not in favour of mentioning it.
Please help me it is really urgent and frustrating .
