invalid flr fp application and Ilr

Post by sodonm » Wed Jul 22, 2015 7:16 pm

Hi all,

My friend had 3 months remaining to fully complete her long residence, so she applied Flr fp to cover the 3 months. Unfortunately yestarday, 20 days after posting her application she received a letter from homeoffice stating that her application was invalid due to photo issues. Kindly please advise as what needs to be done? Does this break her continuous residence? Can she still apply for ILR ? she still has 2 months to complete 10 years though.

many thanks

That is a bit strange, because according to the rules, a person is usually notified of the potential invalidity, and informed to remedy it within 10 days, failing which, the application is invalidated.

The person will need to sort out the invalidity action, or I envisage difficulty with the ILR matters.
