Hi All,
I know you are not doctors but want to share how I feel at the moment I am so stressed and since I applied in December I have anxiety panic attacks can t sleep or eat dealing with home office again is killing me physically and mentally and I feel so insecure. Brief idea about my case:After a failed marriage I overstayed for 10 years been supported financially by family when the British parliament voted for a 6 months concession in 2008 for overstayers I was scared to face it all but this concession encouraged me and I returned to my country during the concession time . Got married in my country to British citizen, disclosed my immigration history , got my entry clearance back to UK in 2008, Got my ILR after 2 years then transferred it to BRP , in 2015 I applied for citizenship when I visited this forum I read about the 10 years rule for anyone with immigration history introduced in 2014 , so I withdrawed my application I applied again after 10 years expired in December 2018 by post paper application , still haven t heard from them, I don t have any criminal records my questions are as follows :
1-I asked a solicitor about my overstay he keeps repeating 10years means 10 years they are not going to be blaming you for the overstay or discuss before the 10 years ! but when I read other cases in this forums HO seems to ask about the overstay years even after 10 years has expired asking people how they supported themselves ...etc is my solicitor correct or is he just making up answers ?
2-I called HO and asked after nearly one month now I have not received any acknowledgement letter ?some loud woman kept repeating: WE DO NOT SEND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT LETTERS TO APPLICANTS ! we send the Biometrics enrolements letters that's all !and do not call until the 6 months is expired !how accurate is this?
3-My application is paper by post how long do I have to wait to receive any correspendance from HO ?
4-Does the paper application takes longer than the online one ?
Many thanks in advance to anyone who decides to answer my questions .Good Luck to you all.
