10 years long residence applications

[smir]

Thanks a lot brother

="Bigboy86"]hi guys as promised i am here to answer any p

@Smir
your first question
in 2009 first in june they sent my whole application back saying that my payment hasn't gone through and if i want to apply then apply again using correct payment method. they didn't give me any time scale within which i have to apply back.

secondly
i didn't appeal for my case in 2009. what actually happened was that i applied 2 days before my visa was expiring on 28th june. i got all my application back saying that the fee was not deducted on 17th july. WHAT MY MISTAKE WAS THAT I REAPPLIED WITH NEW BANK STATEMENT WHICH DIDNT HAVE ENOUGH MONEY INIT after 2 days of receiving the application back. on 15th august they refused it saying that i didn't score 10 points for maintenance. they sent my passport to local removal services and they told me to leave the country asap, i didn't have right of appeal. then i went to a solicitor and he suggested that i should apply with new application and not to go to appeal because it will cost more and take more time too. so i reapplied through solicitor on 21st august with correct statement and correct fee and got the visa.

i have visited so many solicitor before my ilr application to find out if it was a gap. i even went to a first tier tribunal judge who charges £250/10 mins to find out. and everyone told me that it is a GAP.

so then i started to get every thing together.

my solicitor was Bukhari chambers and my personal solicitor was MRs Bailey. they are really very good and very cost effective.

if you have anymore questions about anything i can help with then please contact me on danish9886@icloud.com. i will be more then happy to answer every questions. including if you want to know how much the solicitor cost and what exactly u should do before or after you sent the application.

ONE THING I FORGOT TO ADD IS THAT I ALSO WENT TO SEE MY MP AND TOLD HIM TO WRITE A LETTER TO HOMEOFFICE ASKING THEM TO USE SOME DISCRETION. HE RECEIVED REPLY BACK FROM HOME OFFICE SAYING THAT THEY WILL DO EVERY THING THEY CAN.

REGARDS

Thanks

Can you please throw light thAt did they returned documents and application

Or did they sent you letter that application is invalid and apply again ?

Please throw some light

Also was you case with tribunal or any appeal pending ?

Thanks
Also if able to provide with details of consultant so that we too can get important info please

Many Congratulation brother Very happy for you.

I have almost a same case have gap due to invalid application - Payment issue the only difference is I wasn't aware of this that the invalid application counts as a gap in your legal residence until I joined this forum.

So let see what will be the outcome of my application.

AlHumdullilah
by the grace of allah the only merciful

i have received phone call from my solicitor confirming that my ILR has arrived.
I WOULD LIKE TO PERSONALLY THANK EVERYONE IN THIS FORUM FOR ALL THE HELP THEY HAVE PROVIDED.

MY CASE WAS NOT STRAIGHT FORWARD, I HAD A GAP OF 91 DAYS IN TOTAL DUE TO PAYMENT NOT BEEN TAKEN FROM HOME OFFICE IN 2009 FOR MY TIER 4 APPLICATION. I REALISED IT SOON ENOUGH BEFORE APPLYING FOR MY ILR AND PREPARED MYSELF FOR IT.
I WILL TELL YOU EXACTLY WHAT I DID TO PREVENT THE HOME OFFICE FROM REFUSING YOUR APPLICATION.

1. First of all i received my SAR report which told me exactly where my GAP was.
2. then i called my bank and asked them for my bank statement from that time when my visa was refused due to home office not been able to take the payment.
3. i highlighted the relevant time when home office should have taken the payment but they didn't to show that i had enough money in my account and it wasn't my fault.
4. then i went to a first tier tribunal judge who sits in London and gives consultant. he cost a lot but he gave me confidence that i have a possibility of winning it. (you don't have to do it)
5. then i went to my solicitor and gave all the papers to them.
6. they made the case and gave a reference of BASNET VS SSHD which is very good precedent for all the cases who have gap due to payment issues in past.

i received my documents today and the date on the letter was 7th feb.
please update the spreadsheet.

i will be checking my this account every week for any questions anyone have.

regards.

Appeal reschedule to July because of lack of court time


What about you ?

Is it now FTT or UTT ?



After giving biometric did they replied anything ?????

Hello Smir how was your appeal, pls can you share more light, as have got an appeal for June this year, but have already applied for ILR.
Brother Chaudhary


You can't apply ILR if your appeal is pending


You as soon as finish 10 year completely just sent a letter and photo copy of liuk test English language and passport photo copy showing entry exit claiming that you have finished 10 year and will maintain that I qualify for ILR on additional grounds


Send one copy to tribunal and one copy to HO officer who is looking at your case

Dear/madam
I am Samim' come uk 27.3.2005 & want apply 10 years rule for leave to remain.

Unfortunately ,my passport is pending at home office last 3years,when I applied spouse visa but some reason it's been refuse & I am going to court for hearing 17 of July 2015.
in that case 27 of March it will be 10 years for apply residence permit (ilr)
So shall I apply one month before or need to wait exact 10years time ?

I will be grateful if you give me exact idea about my (ilr) application & what to do.

King regards

[yask]

Last two days been very quite no approvals..................

[Brightlove]

Was talking with someone earlier according to him my decision for ILR is taking time because of the up coming elections,is he trying just to put me down to lose hope or he talking sense?

[smir]

No Bhai







I am not planning now as still 5 months to go and in case

And still if I apply ILR I need to send original liuk degree and if UKVI plays and keeps docs till appeal then I have nothing with me to show them in appeal



So thinking better to wait



But you please don't withdraw appeal

If you withdraw then it's end if case

Still in FTT, have not receive anything from UKVI after my biometric. I thought you made an application for ILR as well
