FLR refused.

Post by smiles345 » Sun Apr 01, 2007 11:47 am

my friend who was on student nurse visa completed the course here and obtained PIN number N.M.C [nursing and midwifery council] the employer applied work permit for her [her visa expired just 2 day after the Wp application made by the employer. the first WP was refused but she had sent the FLR before her visa was expired. the employer again applied the WP and approved. but the leave to remain team sent the letter to her asking to leave the country saying that her WP was refused. but she again sent the FLR on the basis of new approvel. but the FLR team already sent the passport to teh enforcment wing. the new FLR also refused. is there any possibilty if she go back to India and get the entry clearance? how she can get the passport from these people to go back to india? will ther be a problem overstay at the embassy in india? please help

I recommend she obtains legal advice. She is in a tricky situation which can be easily sorted out by a good lawyer with the right contacts.

I suggest leaving the UK and applying for EC from outside the country on the basis of the new WP. Will save time, money and nerves. Suggest writing a detailed explanatory statement to ECO about what happened and submit with VAF1.
The deemed overstay will not be a problem.
There was a person on this board in almost similar situation, who did exactly the same and got his EC under WP approved in 5 days.

Good luck!

She could just go to the police, lay a charge of passport theft against the Home Office, get a police report, and then go to the Indian embassy in London and obtain a new passport.
In a few years time we'll look back on immigration control like we look back on American prohibition in the thirties - futile and counter-productive.

Has she tried a standard procedure of return of passports given on the Border and Immigration Agency's website?

Yes, I'd try asking the BIA to give the passport back first, they do have a proceedure for those wanting to voluntarily depart. "Get a new passport and everything will be OK" is recommended to much in this forum!
