1.Are you married to him?

2. Did his company refused to extend his work visa?

DLR is only issued to failed asylum seekers under an exceptional circumstances

biolachick:


I am not married to him. His company tried to renew his work visa but during the process, the UK border told the boss to put the job advert online as they believe there are better people that are not foreigners that can do the job.

But coz his boss really like his work, he didnt want to lose him so the boss lied to the home office that he put the job advert online. The home office found the boss out that he lied to them and because of that, my partner was refused his work visa.

The home office took the boss to court and they found him guilty and they banned the boss for 2 years so he is not allowed to invite foreigners in on work permit.

He appealed but the appeal was also rejected based on the reason that his boss doesn't have power to give out work permit until the 2 years ban is over.

justwise:


His boss messed the whole thing up for him, jobs supposed to pass 'market test' and if there is no British or EU citizen capable to do the job then a non-EU citizen can be given the job.

Did he come to the UK with work visa or student visa then converted to work permit?

biolachick:


Yes the boss really messed everything up for him. He came to the UK with the work visa.

justwise:


It will be difficult for him to apply for any visa to remain in the UK because you are not married, he overstayed his visa and he has appealed and lost the case.

You need to get married but that means leaving the UK and to apply for spouse visa you need to be working and earning £18600 a year.

Were you working before you gave birth or were you relying on his income for the family?

biolachick:


I was working. I've been told he can apply for discretionary leave to remain as he has family life in the UK which is the baby since the baby is british.

My reason for coming here is to find out what are his chances of him winning the case.

emmachick:
Justwise u r wrong tho. Discretionary Leave is not only for Assylum Seekers as u claim.

Discretionary Leave can be given provided the applicant has strong ties in the UK. The application will be reviewed under Humanitarian Right and with the help of a very competent lawyer.

A friend of mine went through same ordeal. Her boyfriend overstayed. But what strenthened their case was that they have both been living together under the same roof with proofs of cohabitation. Also my friend is british and the baby she has for the boyfriend is british too.

They applied for Discretionary Leave to Remain in February through a very good lawyer. The Lawyer's fee was £2400 inclusive of Home Office fee. A letter from the Home Office asking for the boyfriend's biometric was received in March. In April the boyfriend received his Biometric Card and he was given 2.5yrs discretionary leave to remain which he wil be renewing evry 2.5yrs for 10years.

So with the help of good and competent lawyer, the case is winable

Discretionary leave to remain deals with asylum seeking cases which your husband's case did not fall into.

You can read more about it here https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/312346/discretionaryleave.pdf

Not just asylum seekers, if u don't fall into any category and they don't really know wat to do with u, they will give u DLR.

E.g my best frd was illegal , she came By impersonation.

3 yrs later met a British man, had 3kids in five years, they got married. Made an application and got 3yrs DLR

biolachick:
Hi all,

I've been receiving alert in my mail box since morning about this thread. Just to clarify sone things.

Mybpartner was given his BRP (biometri residence permit) this month.

It still seems like a dream as i am so happy.

What justwise said about my partner not having chance is not entirely through.

Infact didn't take the immigration to decide his case.

Thank God I and my Partner followed our hearts and went ahead to make the application. All i can say is people should not judt give inaccurate information.

Thanks

biolachick:
The attached pictures are the proofs of the response we had from Homr Office. Sorry guys i had to hide my partner's name and address.
The first picture was the response we got from the Home Office.
The second picture was a letter asking him to do his biometric
And he third picture was a letter confirming his biometric card details but i have left out his biometric number.
So Justwise, there is no need to keep arguing with Emma. We all learn new thing everyday. Ciao

For the sake of clarification...did you apply for Discretionary leave to remain?

biolachick:


Yes @ Justwise. We applied for Discretionary Leave to Remain. That's what our lawyer put on the application form

justwise:


Ok.

biolachick:

Can you stop banning her post coz i dnt seen anything she has done wrong.

Thanks

justwise:

Ok.
I wasn't arguing with Emmachick.
She was busy pasting external links relating to immigration lawyers and when I moved it she becomes abusive
