Can cautions be removed from the PNC?

It is only in exceptional circumstances that the police will remove a caution…

what are my chances of citizenship being approved if my simple caution is from 2009? thanks

CAN I CHALLENGE A CAUTION AFTERWARDS?

Moreover, any cctv evidence is unlikely to exist now.

so there is no hope for me really?

it was common assault...i had a backpack and flung it on my shoulder and it knocked sunglasses off a womans face at a train station...i did not appeal and jsut accepted it in 2009... Sounds like an accident. i just accepted the caution in 2009 and didnt even ask to look at the cctv at waterloo ...

I would say it happened so long ago and you haven't reoffended since that your chances of approval are pretty high - you didn't receive a custodial sentence which is more likely to be a deal breaker. It is your call what do here, we have seen some cases of applicants with criminal records more ...

In the end it's your choice - from your postings here it would appear that your offence wasn't a serious one, you are explaining everything upfront, from what we have seen here applicants with more and serious issues than yourself have been approved. Difficult to see how you could be refused. it ...

Yes I would disclose and comment on how since then your life has changed and you haven't reoffended.

if they reject my application because of the caution is it worth paying £1600 again or jsut living with residency forever instead of citizenship?

That is unfortunate and I am sorry. You got past that and it won't affect your chances for naturalisation, hopefully this helps in dealing with this painful memory.

but i obviously say on my application that i have a simple caution?

I think it has been way too long for you to be able to challenge it now but as I explained a simple caution all this time ago is unlikely to affect your application if it is your only incident with the law.

yes
it has been
apart from me being a victim of a hate crime

If that is your only run in with the law and you didn't receive a prison sentence, I would think that should be OK. Review the full good character guidance here https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/1175386/Nationality_policy_-_good ...

i recieved a simple caution in 2009 ,,recieved my ilr in 2014 and would like to apply for my citizenship but worried i will be rejected as i recieved a simple caution is 2009..is it worth applying? thanks

thats quite a while...why so long do you think?

i have indefinite leave to remain but my card expires in 3 months...i applied for a replacement at the end of september this year...how long is the processing time for this? thanks

im more confused now , i thought the fee to replace and expiring brp card was £56/../..when i got the the last page to pay its saying £71??? then it saus if your card has already expired its free for a new one? which one is correct? thank you

i need to renew my brp card as it expires in 2023 i have indefinite leave to remain,,in 2009 i recieved a simple caution for something that wasnt my fault..do i need to disclose this on the application to renew my brp card..will they reject giving me one for my honesty? If they ask on the form you ...

so i haveto declare the simple caution even if it is from 2009?
