10 years long residence applications

[Hardikjshah83]

hi All,

i have this bizarre situation here :

me and my wife have originally applied on Tier 1 (GEN) Extention, which was refused and pending hearing in Aug'14. HO kept all our oriignal document at that time subsequently I have withdraw application and at the same time applied for ILR on LR route. and submitted my wife's FLR(M) with covering letter suggesting all the original with HO (including passport/bio matric, Original Marriage Certificate).

however got a letter from HO today requestign further documents as listed below.

1. Marriage certificate (original)
2. Documentary evidence of owndership of home or tenancy agreement AND a letter from the landlort/local authority confirming who residing there.
but agreement is only in my name - my wife's name is not included anywhere and council or estate agent refuses to confirm and put my wife's name on it.

3. further documentary evidence to show that you hvae been cohabitting with your partner in last 2 years.
all the bills come in my name, only the bank account copies which i have already submitted - how can i get further evidence.

not sure what else i can do?

HI Hardik,

Sorry to hear this.

Does HO asked all these for your ILR application or your wife's FLR(M) application ?

Thanks

Hi Amina,

My husband was able to come along with me (Set(m) appointment at PEO Croydon) when the appointment was for me only. You only need to book for people who are making an application.

Best of luck!

hi,
I got ILR based on long residence. I am applying for my husband at PEO. I just want to know that can I go along with my husband at PEO. As when I am trying to book his appointment the ukba website does not allow me to book myself.
unless I will pay the fee as the dependant.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks

I have been reading this quietly foe a while. I need to apply for my LR. I want to know what documents to I need to product.
my history is,
Arrived in UK on 6-01-04
01-01-04 to 04-07-09 student no gap.
Then on to tear 1 PSW (Few Days Gap)
27-07-09 to 27-07-10 (With gap)
Tear1 general got refused and I won the appeal.
03-11-10 to 03-12-12
then to EEA ( Gap due to processing time)
17-11-12 to 17-11-17
My question is, gaps will they effect anything. What docs do I need to submit.
Thank you for your help.

[SSWSZ]

More then 28 days gap after visa expiry may create problem otherwise it's not a problem

I have 3 months gap in between one extension. what do you think I should do. It was an appeal that took long.

Also what paperwork I need to submit.

Thanks

[SSWSZ]

If they send you rejection and appeal right within 28 days and you did the same then this means you are still legal till the outcome of appeal .this is what I understand from this forum .plz correct me seniors

I think You have to send the refusal letter along with court judgement, this way u can prove u applied within legal time limit got refused and then court decided appeal in your fav. So legally there is no gap as far as ur application was applied on time.

Dear Team ,

One of my freind need some legal advice which i am not sure what and who would give him suitable suggestion on it regarding 28 days gap :

During his 10 years stay and extension he never been refused but has got invalid application twice in his 10 years on different occassion :-

First INVALID application :-

In 2007 when he applied for his extension exactly same day his current leave expired unfortunately due to some reason which he didn't remember now his application came back to him as INVALID due to some payment issue now he didnt remember actually after how many days his application returned back to him and he re applied again and he was granted a visa .....he only remember that his payment is declined because the credit card through which he was about to pay his fees lost or stolen so he cancelled the credit resulted his application invalid but in the mean time he called homeoffice and paid through cheque and his payment was actually accepted by Home office through cheque , however in the mean time homeoffice already sent his application as invalid and he recieved the invalid application bit late due to royal mail strike or some thing ...when he recieved his invalid application he straight away apply fresh application and the out come of that application is successful means he granted visa .(.in fresh application he showed the homeoffice the cheque clerance information given by bank which he sent to homeoffice )

Unfortunately he didn't have any records or acknowledgement letters or invalid letters with him neither he remember the exact dates of strike of royal mail or recieving and submitting application proof or reciepts

if he has no proof of any thing ...will it be effect his long residency continuity or not ?



Second invalid application :-

He sent his last extension to homeoffice on time before his current leave to remain expired on 11th MAY 2011 ...UNFORTUNATELY this time again his application return as INVALID due to some payment issue .once he recieved his invalid application along all his documents back from the home office on 20th May 2011 and he send the fresh application on 27th May 2011 . The out come of this application was granted a visa which he asked for means successfully granted .



So in both of the cases his continous stay regularised or not ?

what homeoffice mean by 28 days disregarded ? 28 days from the current visa expired or 28 days the homeoffice sent the application as INVALID ?


Can some one advice on it in the light of current homeoffice rules ?


Thanks

Shah

Hi Kan31,

Have you applied for your SAR report before making application?

If yes, what does it say in minutes notes about this extension? does it say in time application or out of time application?

Kind Regards
