the way you wrote telling how judge wrote I can say it has a potential to have been considered for upper tribunal provided a good lawyer if prepared your case, your post has also indicated you have had an inexperienced lawyer dealing with your case.

I suggest you to find a good lawyer who could pick up points from latest decision compelling upper tribunal to hear your case, it could simply be article 8 as an additional ground considering a considerable time that you have spent in UK would make upper tribunal to accept your case.

hope above helps
thanks,

Hello Premcomm,

My case was exactly similar to yours. And my bank had provided a separate letter stating as per their rules and regulations they cannot issue any such documents. it's the sole discretion of the account holder to provide any such declaration to the concerned party. All bank can do is issue the account holders bank statement along with a covering letter stating that the funds are available in the account holders account. Now home office had accepted that letter of the bank but they said however it doesn't mention your name. Now my argument was first of all, no bank on this earth would issue any such letter if I have no connections with the bank at all. As per bank its the sole will of the account holder and the account holder (my third party investor) has provided a declaration along with representatives letter that money will be available to me when needed. So, what's the issue. Why should bank mention my name or address any letter to me if I have no connections with that bank at all. We cannot accept financial institutions to not to follow their rules and procedures just to please HO. My appeal was very heated, my barrister was very strong in putting his point and strongly said HO such rules are not viable at all. At first I was scared that what on earth my barrister is doing why cant he take it easy but turns out to be they know there job better. And my judge had also mentioned about RODRIGUEZ CASE in his decision and therefore, allowed the appeal. I don't understand why urs is dismissed.
But all I would say is for sure apply for Upper tribunal and go through a good barrister. You have a strong chance.
Good Luck

Unfortunately, the Rodriguez judgment was recently overturned.

its better you submit an application to FTT for permission to go to UT and you can then find out more information on your best course of action.

OPTIONS AFTER FTT AND UTT REJECTION

Post by premcomm » Fri Feb 14, 2014 3:31 am

Hello,
I hv applied in July 12 and got refusal in August 13. Appealed in FTT and appeal dismissed on evidential flexibility bkaz of rodgriz judgment.
My question is if I go to UTT and getting no permission of appeal then what will be the option and how it will effect on my 10 year long residency visa as I hv completed my 8 years now.
What is the best option for me to keep the 10 year long residency visa intact.
Tnx

Re: OPTIONS AFTER FTT AND UTT REJECTION

@premcomm, 
Once u have got rejection in FT within 5 working days u have to apply for UT asking permission from FT, if u don't get permission from FT to go to UT than again in 5 working days from (the date u have recieved letter from) u can directly ask permission to UT. now UT has right to accept or denied ur application.

Now if UT accepts, 
Than u ll recieve date and follow procedure. If hearring result is in ur favour than u will be reviving documents with biometric card soon. And if result isn't in ur favour than Ur section 3c will end here means from that moment you will be considered as overstayer. Now within 28 days make a fresh application and wait for the result. In this case of u will be rejected than our won't be getting right of appeal.

Now if UT denies than Ur section 3c will end here means from that moment you will be considered as overstayer. Now within 28 days make a fresh application and wait for the result. In this case of u will be rejected than our won't be getting right of appeal.

Now you can also go for JR after getting rejection in UT but as u are completing 10 years soon If I were u than won't prefer this option. as if u loose in JR as well than you will have to leave the country.

In case of 10 years ilr if you are making a fresh application and have granted a visa, than the period in between of rejection from UT and granted visa from new application will be disregarded. Means your 10 years long residence will continue. So you don't need to worry about it.

Your main focus should be at the moment to get approved your visa.

Hope this will give you better idea. If any of the sentence or word you do not understand don't hesitate to ask again.

Good luck.

If you are deciding to Make a new application than in this casE as well u have 28 days to make a fresh application. But again section 3c will end here and u will be overstayer from this moment.

If I were you than i will to go and apply for UT as i will buy some time for fresh applicaion. If u r doing the same than Make sure you don't leave any loop holes. And many of our members have won the case in UT. So give it a try.

Hi All,

Here's an update. Just received the letter dated 24.02.14 from FTT notifying that they refuse the permission to go to UTT.

Considering the unique situation with initial appeal right with my application (please see my first post for history),

Can I still submit fresh application?
If yest, 28 Days start from which date (24/02 or 1st refusal from FTT dated 03/02)?

What would be my deadline to submit fresh application if I can?
