The caseworker's guidance, section 9.7 of the following may cover this scenario (illegal working):scorpio81 wrote:Hi fellows (specially Amber & the senior members)
I am concerned about the recent changes of good character for citizenship applications. My naturalisation application is due in a couple of weeks. I got my ILR on 10 years legal stay (Long Residence).
Came to UK as a student in 2004. All applications in time with valid visas till 2012. Tier 1 entrepreneur got refused in 2012. All in time appeals got exhausted on 28 Feb 2014. 10 years completed on 10 March 2014, so applied for ILR in time within 28 days. Now as all appeal rights where exhausted, i was not allowed to work, which i was unaware of. So i was still driving taxi when one day i was stopped by the home office enforcement unit and issued me an IS96 form and asked me to report at a local ukba centre every week till the decision of my ILR. After this incident it took 6 weeks and the ILR was then approved.
Now will this incident effect my citizenship application.? I have never had any immigration or criminal problems within the past 11-1/2 years of stay in the UK.
Please advise specially senior members. Many thanks
Thnx for ur reply mate. So u think they would hve it in their records.? As on the given IS96 form they did not write anything relating to my working stuff. And when i 1st reported at the iffice the guy had no clue as y i was here as he only knew that my ILR application is in process.? So dont know if they have this "my working" stuff in the record. How can i find this out.?noajthan wrote:The caseworker's guidance, section 9.7 of the following may cover this scenario (illegal working):scorpio81 wrote:Hi fellows (specially Amber & the senior members)

Assuming HO maintains records of IS96 and other such notices, it may be prudent to obtain legal advice &/or assistance in composing & providing an explanatory letter to support your application.
Good luck.

Overstayers cannot legally work.scorpio81 wrote:As far as my reading if the IS 96 form issued, it wws issued considering me as an overstayer not working illegally. Overstayer only because i applied within 28 days of all my appels exhausted. it did not effect my ILR
