Hi
I am not sure whether i m posting this on write place but please guide me my situation is that mu 10 yrs ilr
has been refused due to the gap in 10 yrs lawful residence not cos of my fault but due to HO fault as they lost my passport and supporting documents when i applied for my student visa extension in in 19 dec 2007.
I made an intime extension application on 28th Nov 2007 which was rejected 05 Dec 2007 and returned back to me cos some supporting documents and was asked to apply again I applied again on 19th Dec 2007 but after 1 month of wait I rang HO about my application as i never received no acknowledgement letter after posting my application and I was told that my application has been rejected and sent back to me which I never received and HO made an inquiry about it and told that my packet has been lost in post(Royal mail) from HO to my address and I was asked to get a new passport from my consulate and apply again as I was the university student at that time. So it took me about 5 months to obtain a new passport and apply to HO after that HO took a long time to decide my application and I applied for PSW in feb 2010 which was granted. My question is whether I m covered by law so that I can claim my lawful residence in UK as I have been without visa for over 2 yrs just cos of HO lost my passport and documents. please help thanks
