Good question mate and like you, I'm eager to know why.

The immigration laws in the US are less cumbersome than the UK.

As I have posted before. You DO NOT have to declare it. It was just a fixed penalty. People who have been arrested and cautioned by the police and whose details are on the PNC DO NOT have to declare it when applying... NOW in your case it was just a fixed penalty + you didnt get arrested.. so RELAX...

That is wholly incorrect- you can switch to a dependant visa if your leave to remain at the time was amongst others a work permit visa.

Congratulations Alimohamad, I now don't know what to think about it. It looks like everybody who applied the same time as me has already received their visas. However, I only showed UK salary and UK masters degree, and nothing else. I also had a refusal in the past, went through the appeal and then...

Not sure if that is entirely correct. There should normally be a narration to the deposit.

I have been issued with a parking penalty today because i missunderstood that the parking in the retail car park was paid for. I believe i cannot dispute this because i clearly parked in the wrong place. So, if i pay the penalty, would i still have to disclose it in all my future aplications to the...
