It may be open to you to apply using FLR(FP) and possibly vary to ILR and pay the difference.
cutebillz wrote:Hello.
I have few questions:
1: I am on tier 4 student visa and my visa expiring on 25th of Nov 2014. I am due for ILR long residency in March 2014. I need visa to cover these 3 month to qualify for ILR. I suppose to extend my Tier 4 visa. However, College get strict now and they asking for large about of fees and non of the issuing CAS letter until I get the 60 days letter from UKBA. So, I spoke with HOME OFFICE many time to send me the 60 days letter but they have not sent any. Now my visa expiring.
I have been getting admission colleges from last 3 years and they all get revoked and my leave was curtailed. I have not achieved qualification due to this revocations.
I spoke with many lawyer to put FLR(O) and they asked me NOT to do so. However, I am in the middle and thinking to put FLR(O) by myself.
I am thinking to make application asking HOME OFFICE explaining my situation that I took admission in 3 college and they all revoked and now I have not received any letter from UKBA non of the college giving admission, however, due to my past experience I would like to locate a better college and I need a time and 60 days letter to do that. Due to the past experience of college revocation, I have wasted 1000s of pounds and my time to complete my studies.
I would like to study and every time I take admission college got revoked.
please advise, can I put my FLR(o) on these basis and if not so which?
2: I have my 10 years will be completed on 15th March 2015, I have included the period of visit visa of 2 year where I stayed for 3 month in UK. Will you also confirm if that will count in my long residency. ( I spoke with lawyer they said yes it will only count in 10 year long residency)
3: I had 91 days out of county stay in time, will that would be okay.
please advise. asap.
Thank you
Apply set lr when u complete 10 years. Request them to vary your tier 4 application to st lr.cutebillz wrote:Hello Guys,
I am going to apply for ILR in next 10 days, as I will be eligible in 10 days. I already have Tier 4 application pending with home office at the moment.
Can someone guide me what should I do? Should I make ILR application and ask them to switch my application from Tier 4 to ILR.? in this case do I need to pay the full fees or the difference only?
Or
should I wait for the outcome of the application of tier 4? and than apply
Please advise, about what is most suitable and about the fees difference
Thank you
To get the right advise kindly tell us when they refused your first application?cutebillz wrote:Hello
I applied for tier 4 on 25th November 2014. I was expecting that visa will be refused. However, I applied to gain some time to qualify for ILR.
On 24th March I applied for FLR LR while my Tier 4 application was pending. I paid new fees , done biometrics.
My passports and document were with UKVI. I asked UKA to switch my application from Tier 4 to FLR LR.
Today on 09.05.2015, i received a letter from UKVI that my they have refused my Tier 4 application as they were not satisfied with CAS when they checked on 17th March 2015. They mention my administrative review time for 14 days from postmark date which is today.
I would like to ask,
1-- Why they have not switched my application from tier 4 to FLR LR?
2-- I still have application pending of FLR LR with UKVI?
3-- Should I make administrative review?
Please advise soon.
Basically what happened was HO trying to create more trouble for u. And they deliberately ignore your flr lr and refused u on tier 4 application.cutebillz wrote:Thank you zee.
My visa was expired on 25th November 2014. So I applied for Tier 4 student visa on 25th Nov 2014. I did my biomentric and sent my documents. I was due to apply FLR LR on 15th March 2015. So I made a new application for FLR LR on 23 march 2015 while my tier 4 application was pending.
I requested UKBA to switch my application from Tier 4 to FLR LR I am not sure why they did not switched.
Today I received a letter on 09.05.2015. That my tier 4 application is refused as my CAS is not valid. Today They have given me letter asking to do administrative review and I have 14 days from 09.05.2015.
The thing is they already have my pending application of FLR LR with all my documents and they have refused my Tier 4. However, I mentioned in the letter that i want to switch..
I have not made any Administrative review yet. i am not sure do i need to make one or not.
"""Just to mention that This is my first tied 4 I applied and they refused and I have not made any administrative review yet as I just received a letter today. I am not sure if I need to do administrative review as They already have my FLR LR application.""
I hope I mentioned what you asked.
So u didn't plan ahead for ILR. Very strange, This is not an excuse that your passport is with HO. U applied tier 4 in November so u didn't simply care that your 10 years r going to complete soon and u wont have your passport by that time. Silly mistake.cutebillz wrote:Why HO ignoring my application, when I know they have my application and I have done all biometrics etc.
Well, I did FLR LR because I did not have valid English test and Life in the UK as my passports were with HO.
I do not want to go administrative review because I do not want to carry on with Tier 4 and I was expecting that Tier 4 will be refused. I was waiting for time to pass so I can apply for FLR LR, So I did.
I do not want to go though administrative review. I would like to keep it on FLR LR.
What do you think what should I do.?
Did u send any covering letter with flr lr and requested them to VARY your tier 4 to flr lr?cutebillz wrote:i think you misunderstood me. I was working hard to get on this 10 years.
I am just telling if I just leave the administrative review and let them decide my FLR LR as I have already paid them the fees for that.
If I wont go for the Administrative review for the refusal of Tier 4 and let them decide the FLR LR application. Will that be an issue?
They always send the passport back after they have made a decision (approve or refuse). They only withhold the documents when they have reasons to suspect them being dodgy. One possible explaination might be that the documents are lost in transit.sudeep.makku wrote:Hi Guys
I have applied for tier 2 visa 2 months back but it got refused due to low salary as per my job code. I wrote a letter for reconsideration but did not heard anything from them. After 1 month, I received my documents but have not got my passport. I still hold valid visa for 20 more days.
Every time I call UKBA helpline they give me different answers. Some say you must get the passport back and some say we do not send the passport back.
I want to reapply for tier 2 visa with new CAS.
Do they send the passports back if application is refused? I want to apply in premium service now, can I apply in premium service without the passport as UKBA is already holding my passport.
Thanks
