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strong reason to defend your gap.gurulay wrote:sorry about that I forget to mention one case.rajamahbub wrote: 28 days out of date application is accepted by Home Office.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.
- 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
Thanks,
