[quote="yummymummy3j"]@alina143... you shld get acknowledgement letter within 2weeks but in my case i got it 4wks after[/quote]

Hello, you should get the acknowledgement letter any moment from now. In my second application, they did not acknowledge they just sent the biometric within 2 weekS of application. so you never know with HO.

[quote="nilemarques"][quote="Shondra Sharma"]If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.” I was optimistic last year at the apparent reintroduction of the 7-year rule. This followed the caselaw which in turn had followed the old policy of DP/5/96, which said that where a child had lived in the UK for seven years, it would not usually be reasonable to expect them to leave.

However, the reality of the situation has turned out to be less than ideal. The EX.1 part of Appendix FM is only applicable to those who also meet certain specified parts of the Immigration Rules – so, for example, UKBA are currently refusing applications where the applicant does not have ‘sole responsibility’ for the child and therefore cannot meet E-LTRPT.2.3 of Appendix FM which states that:

E-LTRPT.2.3. Either-

(a) the applicant must have sole parental responsibility for the child or the child normally lives with the applicant and not their other parent (who is a British Citizen or settled in the UK); or
(b) the parent or carer with whom the child normally lives must be-

(i) a British Citizen in the UK or settled in the UK;
(ii) not the partner of the applicant (which here includes a person who has been in a relationship with the applicant for less than two years prior to the date of application); and
(iii) the applicant must not be eligible to apply for leave to remain as a partner under this Appendix.

Essentially, the interpretation of EX.1 being applied by UKBA excludes married or partnered parents from the policy. This seems like insanity: given that the rule is, according to UKBA’s own guidance, in existence in order to ensure that the rights of the child are respected, what does the marital status of their parents have to do with it? Are UKBA seriously suggesting that parents who apply jointly are excluded, thus encouraging them to divorce in order to ensure their child gets to continue in education?

The application of the rule seems to fly in the face of the purpose of it and also the guidance. Such decisions may also contravene Article 8 ECHR as applied outside Appendix FM. The only way to challenge is usually via judicial review. Needless to say, I’ve spent much of the last fortnight writing judicial reviews on this point.
Because of that our 7 year child application refused. Could you elaborate please?[/quote]

@ Shondra. What the HO are are doing is unlawful. They are only considering the parents application under 276ADE but are not even considering the children under 276ADE (iv) as far as I can understand from my refusal. They didn't even attempt to consider. I have written a reconsideration letter stating the obvious and hope to have them refuse my children under that context. In the meantime I am pushing for a removal decision.[/quote]

Hi Nile

As you are pushing a removal decision. If they issue removal decision what should be outcome or next step. if you don`t mind Please explain.

thanks everyone for all the support

all i would say is that this forum helped me alot especially with replies to HO because when they asked for more documents someone on here told me to attach all the policies with it that i come under and that seem to have helped so thanks to that person whoever it was. i have won this without my lawyer he just send the application but the main work was done when they request more documents. my case was more harder to win than my sisters so i guess it also depends on the caseworker too.

no one should give up . because if i can get the stay with me being over stayer from 2001. then everyone else can aswell.

just got one query tho haha. i got the permit but how do i get the passport lol like if i have to go to different country in europe or anywhere

You need to apply for your home country's passport from the consulate here in the UK. Just include the blank passport along with the biometric card, whenever you need to travel or apply for a foreign visa.
All your residency status and all other information are on the card, the passport is just your travel document. Congratulations again!!

and also some lawyer on tv said that if u call HO regularly to find out about your application they will get fed up and refuse you is it true or it depends if you are calling to get a update rather than writting letter straight to the caseworker
from the time thry asked for more documents to the time I received my bio card was 7 weeks I wkuld reccomend waiting about 4 weeks to see if thry get back to you and if they dont contsct your mp snd let them phone on ur behalf they will get more information out if them about the status if ur case

thanks what were your circumstances

@ali91 i was applying for a extension i was previously granted 3 years dlr based on family life in the uk my husband and 2 children are british when they requested more info it was for my familys passport and my husband proof of income and gp letters.usually when they request more info it is good news cause it means that they are considering your case so be postive there is good news to come your way very soon
