Hello all, I am new fo this site and appreciate any help you can offer. I have applied for an FLRFP visa in order to stay with my partner and our baby in UK. Our initial application was refused on the basis that it was sent too early and I didn't provide enough evidence of our relationship.
I am the father of this baby and the Home Office said that I am still legal in this country and have been for four years now. I work hard, have been with my baby since the start. My question is, is there anyway we can stay together as a family - I have applied again and provided more evidence but if it is refused I dont know what to do - are there any other options available to us that means we can stay together as a family? Thank you from me and my partner.

You mentioned that home office is saying you are still legal in UK, so what visa are you on

Thank you for your reply - unfortunately my case is a bit complicated so here goes. Initially I was married to another woman on FLRO status but we divorced, since that time I met my current partner who I have not married (we have no current plans to marry) and we have our beautiful daughter. I have now made a new application as FLRFP and it was refused first time for the reasons mentioned, the HO says I am not required to leave the UK in their decision letter but we have now made a new application and if refused again, my guess is that I will be asked to leave - leaving my partner a single mother and my daughter fatherless.
I hear about a Singh route or something - is this an option for us?
Thank you again for any input

On what basis did you apply. It is important that you understand the category under which you are applying and meets its requirement.
What is the nationality of the child.

I think you went the wrong direction, and Home Office don't tend to be as helpful as to advise a person which direction to take, so they simply refuse their application.

How long have you been cohabiting with your current partner?

Hi
can anyone help me please? I recently got refusal on FLR(FP) application so I m just wondering if anyone got same case like me. its a bit complicated but I m sure someone will help me.
My case background is I came to this country in feb 2012.i was on student visa that time but later on in march 2013 I got married with British girl and I applied for spouse visa..I got refusal on spouse visa and reason was cox I didn't provide them enough documents anyway I went to tribunal and I won appeal..I was issued visa on FLRO application which was going to expire on 22 feb 2015..
But before my visa ending time I got divorce from my wife and I started living with another girl and she is British aswel and we got babe in may 2014.
so after my babe I went to solicitor to get him advice for my visa renewal and he told me that we can apply on FLR(FP) form family life as a parent..I sent my application on 22 December as solicitor told me that I can send my application early than expiry date as this will be consider as a fresh application..
after I sending my application I got refusal on 17 feb 2015.they gave many reasons..
1) that I don't have parental responsibilities for my child as we living all together.
2) My application fall for eligibility requirements of immigration rules as set out earlier.
3) I m not in valid marriage but I applied as a parent of my child.
4) I have no lived with my partner for 2 years.
and they also said that I have still leave to remain in U.K and my current conditions apply until 22 feb 2015.
I have sent my application again on 21 feb 2015 so my question is will is there any chance that I will be successful this time?
Thanks in advance
