ILR Refused Need Advise

[zee716]

Hi,
I applied for the ILR on the basis of long residency ( i.e 10 years). I went to the PEO (Cardiff) on 12 Sept 2015 but my Visa was refused. The objection they raised are the income i showed for the Tier 1 general and the income declared to the HMRC are not same.

The Points they mentioned that:
Income showed to the Home Office through self employment are £21,153 and income showed to the HMRC is £14,326 for the Tax year 2010-2011.

They Mentioned on the refusal letter that "You have used deception on previous application for leave to remain in the united kingdom, Your Application falls for the Refusal under paragraph 322(2) of the Immigration rules.


I have send the amended tax return to the HMRC after refusal waiting for their response. I am not sure even after paying the Tax I will get the ILR or not.

They give me the right to appeal to the First Tribunal within 14 days. I applied for the Appeal and paid their fees.

How long i have to wait for the Appeal? Would i be able to secure the ILR after paying all the due tax and it's just a gamble.

Any advise or suggestions would be highly appreciated. Thanks in Advance

Sorry to hear that Zeeshan.

My friend extension was refused on similar ground in 2013 and he appealed. He eventually won the case in upper tribunal. He had similar issues with income tax, he declared it correctly to hmrc.

Did they call HMRC to check your declared income?

did you pay the difference to hmrc?

I am waiting for the HMRC Response. It take quite long to get the response from HMRC.

When did you send your amendments?

[zee716]

I sent the tax returns on 12 oct.

Why did you under-declare almost £7,000 of earnings to HMRC for tax? Amendments now may not absolve you of deception.

Tax fiddle - obvious!!

It's probably quite prudent to

especially when 'Caesar' can decide whether or not to grant ILR, citizenship & etc.

Supposing you declared £14,326 to the HO in 2010-11, will this amount be sufficient to get your FLR then?

I believe the point is that the OP earned £21,153 but only declared £14,326 to HMRC therefore avoiding paying tax on the £7,000 discrepancy.

Did they talk to you at the PEO? Did you have a chance to explain yourself?
Or they just said refused...?

PEO's are only suitable for rubber-stamp applications, the tick-tick, granted ones. You do not get the chance to discuss issues, it just goes back to the boys in the office with all the others in the 'not straightforward' pile.

...or as in this case, refused on the day.
