I am due to apply ILR in December 2011, I have a driving conviction ie "without due care and attention" with 5 penality points and fine which I went to court last month. Will this effect my ILR in DEC 2011.
can you please let me know
Thanks,
If the criminality threshold is introduced in April for settlement application as planned by the govt, you may not be eligible for ILR. Hence you would have to apply for further leave to remain under the rules for Tier 1 G extensions till your conviction is spent - 5years in your case.
If however that is the only criminal record you have, the HO may decide to excercise discretion in your favour and grant you ILR.provided you meet all other criteria.
How much were you fined?
