Hi there
I am going to apply for ILR on the bases of 10 year Long residency rule
I have received SAR File now
Last limited leave to remain was given as PSW (Post Study Work ) Tier 1 on a " Subsequent " application / second attempt.
SAR file does not have record of first application which was made on 16 November 2011 which was considered invalid at first place claiming “New Fee was Not Paid"
The only information SAR File have: Application raised/received on 20 December 2011 Student visa expired on 30 Nov 2011 ( so it means according to SAR File I submitted my application 20 days after my visa expired)
Neither file have record of date when first application was made nor it has actual UKBA letter sent to myself dated on 30 Nov 2011
The letter sent on 30 Nov 2011 states and I quote,
"As this attempted application is invalid it does not have any bearing on the application's immigration status. Any leave therefore, is not extended by virtue of Section 3C of the immigration ACT 1971 and expiry of the applicant's leave remains unaffected by this attempted application. Any subsequent valid applications will be considered as being made on the date on which they are submitted to the appropriate address as specified on the application form."
With subsequent application I sent covering letter and proved that I sent correct fee and I categorically mentioned that UKBA had made a mistake.
Apart from last application for LTR, all visa extension applications were made well before each visa expired.
As, I made my first PSW application on time (and because of UKBA mistake it was not considered) it has not included in SAR File too , is it going to affect my ILR application. Is it normal if an application to be considered invalid and not included in SAR File?
Your answer would be much appreciated
Kind Regards
