Guys, do you think calling once a week to check on progress of the application will have a negative impact? Will they get annoyed that you cal once a week?

And...by the way.. it seems that (from experience) they keep track of when and how many phone calls you make to enquire about the progress.. i don't know why but they did seem to know all about my enquiries and dates they were made on my last phone call to them! Yeah, I have realized it, but then I...
I have applied on the 16th through NCS in London and got an acknowledgement letter dated 29th October. I have called 3 times because it was taking so long to take the payment and basically I was initially told they are doing character/internal checks. Yesterday I called and was told that character c...
Dear All, As promised I am keeping you up to date with my application. I went to the Home Office today having previously made an appointment. When it was my turn, the first thing that case worker did was look at my passport and then she was checking something on her computer. She then wrote some dat...
Well, if Home Office can check that you left when your visa was expired, then you have a problem. They could check by looking at stamps in your passport. Seems you left without having valid leave to enter. This means you broke continuous residence. Look on home office web site, for official rules.
Rules say that continuous residence is not broken as long as upon your departure and arrival you have a valid entry to enter/leave. Regarding subject access: its the second address on your list (Subject Access Bureau). If you were a student and some stamps are not visible they are unlikely to check ...
She extended her student visa for 3 more years, and stayed in UK for one more year without leaving. This meant she has 16 months absences. She did appeal in the past, judge granted her ILR, but then HO appealed against the court decision, and it was taken back. SO she applied 3 days ago and got it w...
Guys, this is a really important issue. The other girl got her ILR after all:)
Do you know how strict home office is with 18 months rule (under 10 years residence)?
Hi, does anyone know the extent to which the 18 months/10years can be altered?. My friend from Ukraine was a student from 1996 and has just got her ILR in february, and her absences totalled to almost 35 months!. My other RUSSIAN friend got refusal because she wasnt in UK for 22 months during the 10...
No, my friend had all the visas issued in ukraine as well, and she got her ILR last month. Besides, I spoke to several lawers regarding my other issues and they never said that extentions need to be done in UK. I just spoke to another lawer and she said even stay under tourist visa counts- as long a...
Hello, I came to UK on 10th septermber 1996. I came as dependant and was covered by mother's visa (i was only 12). We found a school and I started to attend it from 12th of september. On 15th of october I went back to ukraine, and got a student visa based on registration letter from school. This yea...
Thank you for your advice guys. I have written to Subject Access Bureau, and will keep you informed of my progress. I am also getting all invoices from school, NHS records and bank statements in my struggle to prove 10 years continous residence.
I forgot to add. I have one page cut out from old passport with visa on it that covers me from sep 98 till sep 2000. Police registration certificate has information that I have visa from sep 2000 till sep 2006. So I only need to prove my stay from 1996 till sep 1998. I am just worried that because t...
