I traveled out of the country last year just before the first lock down and I stayed for 7months came back in October 11th 2020. O then traveled again on December 14 and came...

I understand the ten year ban, but I entered the UK in April 2008 hence I’m thinking of applying now as ten years have passed since I entered the UK. Although I got my first DLR in 2011 would that still affect my chances.

Thanks for ur advice Zimba. So in your opinion you don't you think I need to give some sort of explanation as the offence was fraud and it's actually a serious offence even though I never really defrauded anyone of their money/possessions I wasn't even with anyones identity it was just a copy I prin...

Ok thanks. I forgot to mention I also had a driving offence for speeding that same year on April 25 2015 and got a court fine of £415 and 6points on my license. I checked my driving records and the offence has expired but it will clear next April. Do you think they will assume there's is a pattern o...

Ok thanks. Please give some advice regarding my post.

Do you think I could still get refused even though the time has lapsed since the offence?

Dear Zimba88/CR001, Am thinking of applying for British citizenship come this September, but as I have mentioned before I had a criminal record in 2015. Although it was a suspended/non custodial sentence but I am worried that I might be refused. I wrote a covering letter regarding the circumstances ...

Yes I listed all my travels and I was lucky not to have exceed the 180days in any 12months rolling period. You have to list all your travels as they will definitely find out from the stamps on your passport. The documents submitted: Marriage certificate 6months bank statements 2months payslips 6year...

Hi everyone, I want to say a massive thank you to Zimba88 and CR001 for their massive support and to everyone who has posted on this forum. I just return from croyden premium service centre about an hour ago and am glad to say I have been granted my ILR. What a massive relief. Even with my criminal ...

Thanks CR001 for your reply. Could you please explain what a rolling 12months means as my understanding to that term is January to December or for example May 2017 to May 2018. Am sorry if it sounds dump but I have already paid £3074 for my appointment for the 16 of July and I am very very worried. ...

so does that mean it will affect my application because since my first DLR to date I have travelled in total for 380 days?

Does the 180 days absence applies to DLR for ILR application?

Please advice

Ok that’s good to know.

Thanks mate I appreciate all your help.

Please I need your advice as I’m very worried.

Thanks a lot.
