as long as you have refugee status and not humanitarian protection or discretionary leave then you can apply for a convention travel document.

Yes you should apply asap using correct form. Don't forget that you might need to update your bank statements and if you have now had your graduation you will also need your degree certificate as well as the letter from your uni. You must make a perfect application as you will not get a right of app...

You can apply for a convention travel document. You should send your current lebanese travel document with your application form.

The 10 year Long Residence rule allows for 10 years CONTINUOUS LAWFUL residence. I don't think the 6 years you spent waiting for a decision constitutes as "lawful residence". You were merely in a waiting limbo. Your "lawful residence" essentially began from the date your refugee...

Thanks Greenie and is it considered as an overstay?

No. Your stay is extended and you are here legally as I said in my previous post.

but note you dont actually have to apply for confirmation that you have PR before you apply for citizenship. If you are confident you have acquired PR then you can apply for BC a year after you acquired your PR assuming you meet the rest of the requirements. However given that an application for PR ...

I'm sorry to be rude but you shouldn't be abusing the system and ripping off the tax payer mate. 9 years is a long time but what you did is WRONG. People like you put genuine people in trouble :twisted: I think you should go home. Anyway Good luck with your application. Is such a comment necessary?...

Youth Mobilty visa is the closest thing to the Working Holiday Maker visa.

what is your nationality?

it's usually around a week and the UKBA say 7 days after the appointment as a guide. to be honest it's about 50/50 that you will get your BRP in time.

http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewtopic.php?p=448261&highlight=#448261 you already asked this in this post here. The fact you are American is irrelevent. Just because X amount of Amercans went down one route doesn't mean you will qualify for that route. You need to look at the relevent catego...

I assume from your post that you are a non EEA national? If your wife is not going to be living in the UK then you cannot rely on your relationship with her to remain in the UK to study. You will need to apply for a tier 4 visa to continue your studies in the UK. WHat is your current immigration sta...

It’s been nearly 15 months since my initial application was submitted. .

Why didn't you appeal at the time?
When was the refusal and when were the further representations submitted?

Ah, I think you are right. I think I had forgotten the OP's original situation in the excitement of reading the FM post and trying to deal with a baby on my lap at the same time!

FM and babies what a good combo!

on what basis are you applying for FLR(M) if your wife is not supporting your application?

Bear in mind the point made in FreeMovement's blog post: if you do apply for further leave to remain from inside the UK, your wife will only get Discretionary Leave. It will therefore take her a whole lot longer to qualify for ILR unless she "upgrades" at some point by leaving the country...

Its irrelevant If your student visa has now expired because you left the UK before it did. As long as you apply within a year of the date if the award - assuming that psw is still in place - it's ok.

When did you leave the UK?

@Greenie My friend applied for Tier 4 extension on time in Mar-2009 but application returned by UKBA with the reason of 'invalid photographs' and been told to re-apply quickly as visa expired. She re-applied within 10 days but its an out of time application by principal. UKBA keept application for ...

I think 320(11) does not relates to visit visas. Its relates to PBS migration system. Somebody will confirm it????????
