Hello everyone, just wanted to ask whether I can marry while my flr fp is pending.
Brief immigration history.
Entered the uk in December 1996 as unaccompanied minor from Albania.
Applied for asylum. Issued with work permit 6 months later.
Learned in 2003 my case was refused. Lawyer did not notify as he was struck off by law society.
2003 made fresh application under article 8.
2006 handed myself to police station in thinking perhaps that will speed up the process. Arrested and detained as I wasn't reporting. Home office tried to deport me while in detention centre, lawyer successfully applied for an injunction. Released from detention centre with help from my MP and supporting letter from colleagues in the NHS where I had been working for over 8 years.
2009 after waiting for home office to sort my case out for13 years left the UK voluntarily as my father passed away. During the period I was in the uk I worked for 12 years paying taxes and never was in any trouble with the law.
February 2014 re entered the UK illegally, where i started a relationship with a British partner whom I was seeing before I left. Been living together since February 2014 and we have a 2 year old boy. In July 2017 I submitted the application for flr fp. However my concern is that I don't think I submitted enough proof of cohabing together. As we currently live with my mother's partner in a housing association property my name is not in the tenancy agreement. And have no bills in my name. Supporting documents submitted are the following. Letters for outpatient hospital appointment dated 2014. Couple banks application refused as didn't have status in the uk dated 2014, gp letter 2015, nursery letters and gp letters 2017. Statement from mother partner that I been living there since 2014. My passport, partners passport, son' passport and birth certificate naming me as the father and my surname. Partners payslip and utility bills bank statement, contract of employment where she Is earning 21.000. Child benefit letter. Supporting letters from friends and family. 200 photos for the last 6 years as my partner visited Albania few times whilst I was there.
Question, would the above documents be sufficient or do we need to marry and inform the registry office of our intentions to do so?
Would the fact that I have a pending application matter or do I run the risk of being detained?
