non custodial...police caution
Posted: Mon Feb 11, 2013 6:45 pm
I am eligible to apply for ILR in June 2013 but i just read the new criminality threshold changes on ukba website. i think it is for citizenship but my question is weather it will affect me or not.
i received a caution in February 2011. Police told me its not criminal but im concerned it might be criminal for immigration purpose.
I was charged with malicious communications offence and was given caution. what i read on Home office website is as follows:
Cautions
3.5.5 As a caution forms part of a person‟s criminal record, when determining whether an applicant meets the "good character" requirement, caseworkers must take them into account. Where the application was made on or after 13 December 2012 a caution comes within the „non custodial offence‟ threshold. As such, where someone has a caution within 3 years of their application, it should be refused.
now this rule is for citizenship but when i read home office news updates it says new rules for ILR.
Will i get my application refused if i apply for ILR??please helppp
