Canadian wife has been refused her BC
Posted: Fri Jul 19, 2019 2:59 pm
So my wife applied for her BC, having been here for just under 5 years and meeting all of the requiremenrs set out on the gov website for becoming a british citizen.
We just had the letter of refusal sent through, without much information on it, stating:
Your application was recieved on 23rd April 2019. As you were subject to a time limit on your stay in the UK on the dat of your application you do not meet one of the residence requirements. The home secretary has no discretion to waive this particular requirement and as you do not meet it your application has been refused.
It then goes on to say she must take steps to regularise her immigration status and that on £80 will be refunded.
Does anyone have any ideas on this? her visa was renewed last year, with the health surcharge and biometrics etc all up to date.
I'm not really sure what requirement she has not met...
