Dear gurulay
Your 10 year period got 1 overstay.
Your last student visa was expiring on 09/01/2011 and you applied on 17 th. That means 8 days overstay.
Not only that, your application was invali and you send another application on 15/02/2011.
Home office will consider gap from 09/01/2011 to 15/02/2011.
Previously it happened with some members in this forum.
Better to ask some experts or if you could order your SAR then do it quickly.

Hi gurulay,
I fully agree with Sajjad Bahi, in fact I have to add another to the list I am afraid, if you see even your first visa was 1 day too late, expiring 31/10/2005 and applied 1 day late on 01/11/2005.
I am really sorry gurulay, but it is not looking good for you, you better see a good immigration advisor. I hope it helps.
Kind regards

Thanks to both of you and really appreciate for you answer.
I forget to mention that I applied the last student application in my country.
* I left UK on 09/01/2011 ( on the exact day when visa expired) and
* submitted the Post Study Work Permit in my country on 17/01/2011
* I still have the apology letter about 1 day late which i wrote to home office when I submitted the student visa application on 01/11/2005

can you please advice me is it ok or not.

Thanks in advanced

I have received my Mrs BRP on the 18th and till date there is no sign of the BRP for my daughters, really cross, as I have to postpone their SET(M) PEO appointment for Friday. I have already emailed brpdelivery@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk and called them but to no avail, they say wait for the reply to the email. Not happy at all after paying thousands that is the quality of service you get

I would highly recommend you write the same letter to UKBA seeking clarification. Once you receive a response, attach with your application. Your response will be tailored to you with your name and address and should aid your merit in front of a HO CW.

[sams99]

Congrats to all who have received the ILR.

Just spoke to HO they said it's still under process so may be wait is still on

[Chemist]

Hi All,

Just I am wondering if I can apply for ILR long residence under different visa categories as I have (3 years student visa + 3 years student dependant visa + 2 years Tier 2 work Visa + 6 months student dependant visa + 18 months Tier 2 work Visa dependant).

Or I have to under the same (one) visa category during the all 10 years.

thanks in advances

Hi shahjee,

I don't understand if i am wrong correct me? Why do u need ur daughter brp for ur wife set(m) as i believe ur daughter will be eligible for MN1 the day u got ilr. where u need to write on dependant section set(m) that my daughter will be register for british citizen under section (1) (3) . So u don't need to wait for her BRP and also don't need to waste extra money for child.

So, my advise go ahead on friday. U will be ok.

[bhamblues]

28 days out of date application is accepted by Home Office. But your gap from 09/01/2011 to 15/02/2011 is more than 28 days.
Why did you make fresh application instead of appeal? You have to make a good reason or case to justify your overstay period such as mitigating circumstances/sickness etc. It's not impossible at all so keep hope and speak to a good lawyer.

[die_hard]

Hi Chemist,

You don't have to be in the same category during all the 10 years.

As long as you don't have any gap between your previous applications, you haven't overstayed without any valid visa and your 10 years stay is legal you would be fine.

Also you shouldn't have left the country for 180 days at a time or 539 days in total.

sorry about that I forget to mention one case.
- I applied Post study work permit (after student visa expired on 09/01/2011) in my country
- I left UK on 09/01/2011 ( on the same date which visa expire 09/01/2011)
- Submitted the visa application for Tier 1 – Post Study Work on 17/01/2011
- Refuse on 28/01/2011 because of insufficient documents
- Make a fresh application on 15/02/2011
- Granted on 16/03/2011

I hope it's not count as overstay and my 10 years residency is not broken

I hope it's not count as overstay and my 10 years residency is not broken

Thanks,

It will not count as overstay and your long residency is not broken, as long as application was made within 28 days of expiry of current visa. I am more concerned about the gap you have between 09/01/2011 till 15/02/2011. Find very strong reason to defend your gap.
