Ok so that being the case Missy, then you should have been pulled for it at the time of applying for ILR but as you say you got thatMissA wrote:@sparkly,
Thanks for your kind words. Because i went to court and was fined it does count, I have what is known as an unspent conviction, it's written on the UKBA site that driving with no insurance is NOT a minor offence, but was wondering if because it wasn't held against me for ILR then it won't be for British Citizenship.
You have my Skype call meMissA wrote:@sparkly,
I really appreciate your advice, I am so scared of applying as many people have said that the threshold for citizenship is much higher than that of ILR. I would hate to be refused as our finances are squeezed. Pls share your experience if similar. THANKS
And why was this allowed through at ILR stage? at this point she attended court and was fined and found guilty of a road traffic act of no insuranceWanderer wrote:Unspent conviction will mean refusal. Best to wait until spent, though from what you've said, you were not convicted?
I think things are tighter for BC, because of the 'good character' requirements and 'convicted' in the legal sense is the result of a criminal act so it sounds bad....MissA wrote:@Wanderer,
Yeah I was convicted. It's endorsed on my paper license: In10 conviction. But for the fact I had it and was given ILR, would they give me British CItizenship? Because they were fully aware I had it when I applied for ILR, coz I explained the circumstances in detail.
Thanx
OP has made this clear in her OP ( top post).kais wrote:Hi MissA
When did you disclose your conviction? did you disclose it after applying for ILR But before decision of ILR application?
Thanks
