Appreciate all the help. Thanks
Agree with Sushd check if you have unspent convictions on your record at DisclosureScotland or similar and go ahead and apply if clean.sushdmehta wrote:Checking for Unspent Convictions yourself....
Don't worry you will be fine. Trust me, your application will be successful.nahmed wrote:Hello Folks,
I need some help guys.
I am in an unusual situation where I have 2 different results from different official bodies.
The ACRO Certificate in response to SAR request for my record on the PNC supplied by the Criminal Records office states no conviction.
I also applied for a basic disclosure from Disclosure scotland which shows the traffic speeding offence as a conviction.
Now, I dont know what to do and am really worried.
Basically, I got a speeding FPN in Scotland in 2010. I was supposed to pay for it within the 28-30 day period but I couldnt because I had misplaced my counterpart. I did ring the Court up within the period that I am sending you the payment and photocard and will forward the counterpart as soon as it arrives. I was advised to hold on to it and send everything together. By the time all the paperwork got to the court the time had lapsed. So, Summons were issued and I wrote a letter in response that I never meant to challenge the FPN and explained to them the reason & that I am okay to get the points and the fine. I had to pay £150 fine instead of £60 and the 3 points on my license. The court decision is dated 03-Feb-2011.
When the new rules came into effect, I got worried and applied to the Police for the SAR disclosure which came back as clean in May 2011. Now that my ILR is due in a few weeks, I applied for a basic disclosure at the disclosure scotland, just to be on the safe side, which actually shows the same offence as a conviction and I am back to my worrying stage.
Would any of you be able to advise me on my situation?
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Hi,nahmed wrote:Oh thats a big relief, considering you had been in a similar situation.
Could it be that my case is at Case worker's discretion or am I fine as standard?
I am planning to use Solihull PEO for the same day service as I live in Birmingham. Yes, I will definitely mention the traffic offence on the ILR application.
My ACRO Certificate was dated May 2011 so I have applied again for a fresh one along with the Basic Disclosure Scotland. Its expected to come some time in March. The idea was to apply at PEO and take these Disclosures with me and show them as a proof in case anything does come up. But this Disclosure Scotland did give me a big shock to be honest as I was not expecting anything after the clean PNC.
Were your fines & points for a serious offence and were they also given in a Scottish court?
Cheers mate!
Firstly, it is not a convication on which they will deny ILR.irfanb00 wrote:i had 3 points and £60 in penalty ticket 4 years ago due to speeding on motorway which I paid within 20 days.
Last year DVLA removed those points from my license.
Do I need to disclose this on my form?
