Ali (in a non condescending manner of course) please Take photocopies of your covering letter or application form plus PO or cheque for SAR and recorded delivery receipt and then enclose all this in the package for the extra documentation requested. to satisfy that you are waiting on more evidence! They are thicker than treacle these people so you can never be too careful!

Apols if this post appears twice being thorough that's all! lol

Hi DapsonLee.

I am well sir thanks, just waiting for the date for my JR. If anything dramatic happens in the mean time I will share it with you. I heard they can concede before we go to court. Good luck man, I pray you got a decent caseworker. I will be monitoring your case quite closely. I think Pink lady is distraught but we are here to help each other though. Speak soon Fingers crossed

My heart fell apart when she mentioned that earlier today. Cos I mentioned to my lawyer my dad was back home but not seen or hear from him since I was 5. I just hope that dont go against me neither. seem like this guys are just playing black jack with people's lives. I believe we all will get a response soon. We have come this far, can't give up now especially when The Lord is our strength.

Thank you to everyone who has replied.

Just have a few questions, should I go to the Reporting centre?

Do I need a lawyer to appeal?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I wouldn't advise you not go to reporting centre but please be careful and do continue to work on your case/appeal. People do get detained at reporting centres and subsequently sent home even without having proper representation. I don't mean to scare you but just a piece of advice. Do ensure you lawyer/yourself start with the appeal process soon and should in case any unexpected cicumstance arise, then you will be able to say you have an appeal which has been lodged and under consideration . Please remember HO are somewhat cunny and would use every means possible (right or wrong) to frustrate someone.
God bless and see you through

I waso told the same thing two weeks ago by the UKBA that my application is under active consideration.

What does it mean when they said it's under active consideration?

Dear all,

while an application for leave to remain is refused and a removal notice issued with a right of appeal. Do you get your passport and supporting documents back or after the appeal?

Hi

Some time HO hold the passport and sometime they back. it depends on the case worker. If you made an application FLR(O) you don`t need to give the passport with the application.

Thank for replying but my passport was requested for by my solicitor then as it contained stamps of when the Visa was issued and when I first entered the UK. So the application could have been made without the passport?

I am glad I never for once rang UKBA to ask about the status of my application for over nearly 14 months of waiting because they tell you shit and exploit you further when you dont even have any means of livelihood.
I just wished most people can be courageous enough to boycott fund raising for them by making those calls to those UKBA coz UKBA means (Unpertubed Karma Bullying Agency)

Well I guess you don't trust what they say at the HO cos every time they conflict words.with PEO it's an expensive premium route at least £1,500 or there about and still does not guarantee that you will be successful (nobody wants to lose that amount). Most people to through lawyers cos they are unsure of the requirements. Don't trust the phone conversations you have when you call but have faith in your prayers. God will surely favour us in Jesus Name.

You can contact UKBA yourself and use your MP as well. I am not sure whether is good idea or not to write to them yourself, but i did.
UKBA are required to reply to the MPs. My MP has wrote to them twice, I have wrote myself three times to them. Six months ago they say my application is under active consideration. Six months later i am still waiting. They have been kind enough to reply all my letters but i suspect with standard answer which they send to everybody and which does not mean much.

Yeah I really don't as am confused. Cos if my manager says they called her n I call the contact center of HO n am told its not on their system tht my case has been assigned to worker then which is which is it my manager who's lying or home office.?? Cos this was on Tuesday which am sure by now I should have had some information

Good day all,

@Majojo, slightly confused here? home office called your manager and informed him/her that your case has been allocated to a case worker?

They maybe daft but I doubt they will do such a costly error because they will be in breach of the data protection act - they are ONLY by law supposed to divulge or discuss that info with yourself or anyone else acting on your behalf, authorised by you i.e your lawyer or MP.

If this is so, I would file a formal complaint!
