Hi all,
I have been following a lot of threads in this forum, At the moment I am in a situation similar to some members.
This my story,
I came to UK in 2004 student Visa; I got a post Study work which was valid until 24th March 2012. I applied for Tier 4 before this leave expired and I was refused due to the incompetence of whoever treated my case, I was given a right of appeal, however in the month of the appeal my solicitor advised me to withdraw the appeal and apply for a new category FLR (O), I did but conversation with friends made me realize that it was the appeal that is covering me as a legal immigrant therefore I wrote another letter asking UK BA to disregard the first that I wish to proceed with my appeal.
The date of the first letter was 23rd Aug and the second letter was 26th, the hearing was 31 of same month. I remember speaking with the IAC who confirmed that the appeal would take place.
My appeal was allowed, however I did not receive any acknowledgement from UKBA for either of my letters. Until November 9th when I received a letter stating that I have cancelled my application that I submitted in March. Advice from my solicitor said that was weird and it does not make any sense. I just ignored the letter, After receiving the appeal I made another application under FLR (O), February I was stopped from working, On investigating and with help from my MP, I discovered the UKBA has recorded my application as withdrawn and that I have no legal stay since March last year.
To summarise, I have just received a NOTICE OF DECISION for my last application stating that I have been refused and I have no right of appeal, I should call a certain number to discuss my departure etc.
Please help, the case workers note agreed that we have established a family life but her discretion is that my son who is 8 years + would adapt in any country, my son has only spent about 15 days out of this country and we had to come back that quick because he could not cope, she further stated that the other two who were 8 and 5 (now 16 and 13) when they came to this country would also be able to adapt again in any country. I am a single mum
Kindly advice on this letter please, what other options have.
APOLOGIES for the long description, thanks for taking time to read this
