Thinks have got tighter now, ILR you're ok with speeding offences provided it's one or two and not taken to court (and lost). For BC it's different, they are well strict - the 'Good Character' requirement. Citizenship is privilege not a right is the mantra.....

We were talking about ILR (green card in US terms) it is not same as citizenship...

They should be clear in the guidance about disqualifying factors - they are just trying to fook people over who worked for many years.

Now if they did not pay tax then it's totally different matter - no excuses there.

Naturally Home Office relies on the fact that taking legal action in UK is crazy expensive and those people won't be able to do it.

Reminds me of a bare bones system I bought off ebay. A plazzy skeleton turned up.

I agree, moy drug, was just outlining the difference in policy ILR to BC.....

I recently bought some what I thought were 2.5" SAS 300gb disks, they were all 3.5". My fault, I assumed......

That may be too subtle for some on here.

My advice to them, keep trying you'll get it eventually.

But from your own words and the forum there it appears that they are applying citizenship criteria to ILR!

Fooking Tories instead of fixing the system pick up on people who waited for 5 years and honestly declared some non-prison traffic offense which they got fully punished for. If somebody had 3+ motoring offenses then maybe it should be a factor, but that should be clearly explained in guidance - very stupid thing in the first place since those points clear off pretty quickly.

It's only if it goes to court and u get convicted for ILR - 99% just take the fine and points so it's never an issue.

So admin starts a purely technical thread to notify users about system downtime, and it turns into an argument about immigration. Well done, everybody!

In my time that would not be a factor for ILR as long as it's declared on form - the guidance was saying that in cases when custodial sentence was result of court action THEN it would be up to Home Office to decide IF to grant ILR or not.

Pretty crazy system where some known or suspect terrorists can't be kicked out of country, yet somebody on work visa after many years is denied ILR because of traffic offense that the person was punished for already.
