Hello everyone,
A friend of mine got refused a 10 years route FLF(FP) spouse visa to the UK - Human Rights and outside the Immigration rules - (they do not meet the Financial requirements but his wife and kids are all british and already settling here).
The refusal was based on why he applied from the UK and not abroad but as per their solicitor he had to apply from here because he meets the EX1 A (British Children under the age of 18 years) & B (Married to a British citizen residing in the UK). He was given the right to appeal and they already submitted their appeal case and awaiting the court hearing date to be set. Meanwhile their solicitor has decided to send the HO a Pre-Action Proposal Letter that the decision was unlawful and not considerate of the children's life here and emotions because if the father leaves the country he wont be able to come back anytime soon due to financial restrictions and the kids will be affected.
2 weeks after the PAP was submitted they got a reply that the HO will reconsider the application and get back to them within 3 months. That was almost a week ago.
My question is: has anyone faced such a thing where the HO reconsidered their decision after a PAP submission even though Appeal rights were given? if so, how long did it take to get an answer back and what was the end result? Please share your stories as anything might help.
Thank you in advance and hope to hear from you asap.
