Tier 2 Extension - Parking Fine and Driving on a Bus Lane

Post by hero2k » Thu Aug 11, 2016 8:32 pm

Hi Everyone,

I have been searching ages and couldn't find a defined answer.

Basically I have received two Penalty Charge Notices within 12 months and I am now about to extend my Tier 2 visa.

First one was a parking fine and the second one was driving on a bus lane.

I have paid them as soon as I received the tickets.

Now could anyone please tell me that if I need to declare this on my extension form? I was told that they should be disclosed under the Fixed Penalty Notices option. But I think FPN and PCN are two different types of tickets?

Many thanks in advance,
Will

Declare eveything rather than trying to play the stystem. They are unlikely to be a problem and you really don't have a choice.

UKVI will know about them, so if you don't declare them you may be refused, not forthe penalty but for lying on your application. That gets you into a whole different world of pain with long term consequences and a possible long term ban on returning to the UK after removal.

And stop committing traffic offences :D

fixed penalty notices are the one when you get points on your license plus these fine.

I dont think you have to disclose them. Parking and bus lane driving are not traffic offences.

Hi everyone, thanks very much for your reply. I have submitted the application with these two tickets disclosed. I don't think it will change the decision no matter what as they were too minor. Will update the result once I receive it. Cheers.

Hello Hero2k,

Please under what category did you declare the 2 tickets and what is the outcome of your application?

Did you do standard application or priority/ premium?
