10 years long residence applications

[maddysheffield]

Hi guys,

Need some help and advice from members please.

If a set lr application is refused:

1.can that person do a fresh set lr application straight after the refusal?
2.can that person appeal the decision and in the mean time do a fresh set lr application?

And do you know how long roughly does it take to get a hearing for the appeal?

Many thanks

You need to check refusal ground first. If you think they refused your application on false grounds then you can challenge their decision providing you got appeal right. Bear in mind if you visa is still valid you will not get appeal right instead you will get review right which I think usually takes usually 3-4 months or probably more.
If you think HO refused your application on genuine grounds then you need to wait first and then re-apply when you think those grounds have been resolved.

@Tazz_55 I agree with Arsal385

Refusal based on break in continuous residence and could not provide medical evidence. (More than 6 months outside the UK). Got right of appeal.

But if do a fresh application straight away after refusal (refusal in January 2015) then the 6 months can be separated into 2 different period of 12 months and hence no break in continuous residence.

The question is are you allowed to make a fresh application after a refusal or do you have to go through an appeal?

Please advise.

Please advise.

If you have got right of appeal then you can use it with your solid medical evidences. Bear in mind it may take several months to decide the appeal cases. Also due to new changes I am not sure if you can add new evidences in your appeal that you haven’t included in your application in the first place. For latest update on changes you need to take advice from a good solicitor.

If you are confident that there will be no break in your continuous residence now then you can make a fresh application, as stated above please ask solicitor if you can make a fresh application straight after your rejection whilst your visa already ran out. However, your waiting period for the outcome of SET LR application is a legitimate stay in the UK.

[Taz_555]

Thank you Arsal385

I am very confident that if I send a fresh application now then there is no break in continuous residence since the 6 months+ gap are separated in two different 12 months interval from date of application.

I really hope I can make a fresh application straightaway.

I have already tried to get medical records from back home but they haven't got any since they do archiving every 5 years and my break was in 2006-2007

Many thanks for your reply Arsal385

Tahir,
Your history appears to be fine as long as you had your appeals in time and there is no break in your continuous stay. But it is worth to request SAR asap as you still got some time left. Bear in mind their turn around period is 40 calendar days but it will give you peace of mind that there is no issue in your visa history.
Good luck.

Absolutely right Arsal385

Thank you very much for the kind words.

But I have to act quickly since they gave me only 7 days to appeal.

In sha Allah I am allowed to send a fresh application which will be the best option to me.

Many thanks Arsal385

HI All,

Friend of mine received a biometric invitation letter. He registered his biometric same day.

Very next day he got an email from home office saying that home office has received his application and is being considered.

Is it the normal process now ?

Thanks
