Flr application process time.

He will find it difficult to get further leave to remain as new rules state that applicants who have overstayed their current leave will be refused further leave, I think there is more to the application than you've let us know. Why is a cousin sponsoring him when you are his spouse? He cant apply as a spouse and as a sppnsored person, If you understand what I mean.

From 1 October 2012 if you have overstayed your leave by more than 28 days any application for further leave will be refused. This change in the Immigration Rules will affect applicants applying for further leave under: the points-based system;

all working and student routes;

visiting routes;

long residency routes;

discharged HM Forces; or

UK ancestry routes.

12 years over stayer? Reporting since 2009... I thought Cameron was making it easier for removal of over-stayers.

It is 99.9% certain the FLR will be refused as he has no right to remain, and has abused our immigration laws. Only in extreme certain circumstances would he be allowed to remain and I doubt that would be the case as it is very rare.

 

I deal with people who go through the process legally every day, and it really annoys us when people think they can circumvent the system as it makes it harder for the law abiding people.

 

The advice I always give to people in similar situations, and it is the correct way is to go back to the country of origin and apply from there.
