Hello
I am not very familiar with the UK immigration system (I have more experience with EEA routes).
I would like to ask if there is anything even remotely possible for this guy.
Situation:
- He came in to the UK from Africa in mid-nineties.
- He married (a UK national) and got 3 children
When I met with him, he was in the UK for more than 20 years. The last thing that crossed my mind is that he was illegal. He came in illegally and was living here illegally. Despite having a wife and a family, he never tried to contact the Home Office to get his situation sorted. He was more interesting in playing music and adopting these borderline anarchist attitude towards these kind of things that he never bothered.
A couple of years ago he got separated from his wife and not long later was controlled by the police. They asked him to leave the country. I told him to fight it and explore venues but he took a flight a left.
Now, he can't see his kids and he is in a country where he has no place really.
I know the guy. He is a very good man but unfortunately not the kind of person who meets any responsibility when it comes to paperwork.
I don't think a visitor visa would be granted considering his massive overstay at the previous occasion.
Is there any other option for him?
