I am in this Group as well. I fully agree with Rog that we should go for ILR straight away, rather than filing for 1 more year extension. If we are rejected, we can go for appeal. I am very confident we will win the case based on legitimate expectation which has been acknowledged by the Court (bearing in mind that HO did not file further appeal for GJ case. So, the decision is final).Rog wrote:The news of the court overturning the deportation notice given by Home Office to an HSMP holder granting his legitimate expectation is indeed good news. I am happy for the HSMP Visa Holder and his family who would have faced stressful times earlier.
As in his case he was in the first FLR stage, this makes the case for those at 1+3 level even stronger for legitimate expectation. Especially those who got a signed letter from Home Office with the 3 year extension, stating that they would be eligible for ILR after the 1+3 period. This letter would be a very important basis of legal challenge to the Home Office. One just has to be prepared for shelling out hard earned ££s for a legal battle. We should also contribute to the HSMP forum who are doing a great work in filing the JR which will ultimately benefit all HSMP holders.
We on this forum have our own JR filed too, we are represented by Stephen Kong, info on this can be found on www.vbsi.org.uk.Rog wrote:The news of the court overturning the deportation notice given by Home Office to an HSMP holder granting his legitimate expectation is indeed good news.

Is it JR of VBSI and HSMP forum fixed on the same date?Papafaith wrote:We on this forum have our own JR filed too, we are represented by Stephen Kong, info on this can be found on www.vbsi.org.uk.
People on HSMP forum are contributing to their JR, we have our own contributions too. Though both JR's have been fixed on the same day, we are represented by different lawyers and have the same goal.
I'm thinking of doing this too (just apply straight for ILR when my four years is completed in late 2008). The guidance notes clearly state that we should not be affected by HSMP revisions, and I am hopeful because of the two cases that have been won.ex123 wrote:I am in this Group as well.

I would rather pay 5000 to 6000 pounds for a legal battle than waiting for 1 more year with future uncertainties.
I do agree with bani.I would also apply straightaway for ILR after completion of my 4 years in Dec 2007.I also got the letter from HO stating that I can apply for ILR after completion of this period.If HO rejected my application, I would like to go to court instead of waiting for another year.I'm thinking of doing this too (just apply straight for ILR when my four years is completed in late 2008).

You will need a solicitor as each of you will be rejected when apply for ILR too soon. The tribunal case we all heard about was an appeal against deportation.topoftheworld wrote:This sounds like a good idea.
I will also apply for ILR after completion of 4 years
