No rule/law changes at all. He might have been classed as a frontier worker though or married to a British citizen.
UK immigration is so complex & unpredictable that 5 same sort of cases come up with different decisions.The reason for that is the department's own political approach. You can ask for reconsideration & if refused then JR ( can be called appeal).If you find similar cases but successful you can mention of such cases in reconsideration.magnarch wrote: ↑Mon Oct 11, 2021 8:05 pmHello,
I recently submitted a citizenship application - which was refused, because my home was not in the UK - I applied from Canada where I am doing a grad degree.
I was of course aware that this is a potential outcome, but I still thought it was a shot, because a friend of mine, a fellow EU student applied from the Netherlands (while working there), and his application was successful.
My only chance at appeal would be that the knowledge I am getting with this degree would be highly beneficial for the UK, and this department is the best in the field in the world.
I am just wondering if people with more experience with applications think it might be worth appealing based on this or should I just let it go?
Thanks very much for any help.
Still very easy to fail the "future intentions requirements"HCJNL wrote: ↑Tue Oct 12, 2021 9:34 amDid you apply online? The website normally does a good job of asking detailed questions, then telling you what documents you should provide, whether you are a British citizen already (sometimes that happens, an agreeable surprise for the applicant) or if you do not qualify.
You can ask your friend what section is written at the bottom right of his registration certficate (for minors) or naturalisation certificate (for adults). For example, my 10 year old son successfully applied from the Netherlands and was registered under Section 3(2). This is one of the few cases where a person can acquire British citizenship while living abroad.
