I already started working for my new company while awaiting the decision for an application (as advised by a solicitor). I worked for 3 months while my passport was with the HO. My application was rejected and I am now waiting to reapply.vinny wrote:No. You may start working for your new employer only after new leave has been granted.

Shall I tell the UKBA that I have worked for three months as this can jeopardise my new application but if i dont tell them they may say I have used deception in my new application. Someone please advice. you should answer all questions on the application form truthfully - question E7 refers. Give full details under E8 . Thanks.

Difficult to say not knowing the reason for the refusal of your first application and whether you already re-applied and, if so, how you completed E7/E8 on the application formPhoebe wrote:Thanks, I intend to inform the HO about my working while waiting for a decision. Can you please honestly tell me from your experience if this can be grounds for a refusal even with me being honest?

However, your employer's breach of the rules (by letting you take up your post without valid leave) is likely to come to light and may result in repercussions for them. It may be best for your employer to engage a professional advisor (solicitor or OISC) and make representations to UKBA both on their and your behalf.

do you have a PEO appointment booked? You said in your other post that your visa has been curtailed and expires on 10 December, presumably because your previous employer reported to UKBA that you finished working for them. As Vinny said, if you were to apply in person this would have to be before 10 December.
urgent treatment can be requested 10 working days (2 weeks) before the expiry of your visa which, if your visa expires on 10 December, is today, 26 November. They should email:Phoebe wrote:......but no COS yet and It can not be chased as urgent until i have 10 days left on my visa. which means 1st of December which is a Saturday
