Tier 2 General; previous applications and travel history

[lumzan]

Hello experts

I was in UK for 9 years on various visas (tier 4, PSW, and then tier 4 again). I managed to secure a job from a big company who is going to sponsor me for tier 2. I have already received my RCOS from the employer. I am going to apply for tier 2 entry clearance visa from my home country. Now back in 2010, I was interviewed by UKBA on suspicion of working more than 20 hours a week. Home office took my passport, gave me IS151A but allowed me temporary admission in UK IS96 and also in country right of appeal. I made an appeal to the first tier tribunal, and the Judge overturned the original decision in favour of me. Home office withdrew from the appeal, and gave my passport back. SInce then I have managed to get leave to remain under PSW visa, tier 4 visa, and tier 4 extension.

Now, I know that I have to mention about this incident on question 6.6 in my VAF9 form. I am just wondering will my application be refused under grounds of refusal for breaching immigration condition; even though the decision was overturned by the judge and I have managed to get further leave to remain visas after that incident. Anyone with similar experience or knowledge on such matters, please shed some light onto this? I am really worried. Thanks very much.

Thank you so much for your reply. I just wanted to ask one more thing. In my tier 2 application, should I give as much information as possible about that incident (such as sending copy of tribunal decision) or will they have sufficient information about this in their own system? Is it ok for me to mention about this without going into too much detail. Thanks.

[geriatrix]

Yes, do mention sufficient details and include copy of appeal decision for ready reference by the ECO.

Thanks for your advice. Much appreciated.

Actually I am completing my T2 G application form online as I am applying from outside the UK. But in the online form, there is no question regarding anything about breaching immigration conditions in the UK (like Q 6.6 in VAF9 form). Should I still mention about my incident in the additional information section or do I ignore it as it hasn't been asked in the online form? Thanks very much.
