I have come across few case recently where ILR has been rejected on the basis of "deception" . The common reason found out that applicant had declare different amount to HMRC after receiving first time visa or extension under Tier-1 category.

So, question is , how far can UKBA go on deception ?

As per my understanding , If you have committed some type of crime ( as per schedule) and found guilty by court of law , you are eligible for ILR after a rehabilitation period.

But here , someone just accused of a deception by case worker (not even found guilty by the court) and being denied of ILR . If a person clears his due to HMRC ( by rectifying the tax return) before the hearing or even applying for ILR then what are his chances ?

Could you compare that with a rehabilitation period ? If you did a mistake and you rectify it , is that amount to such a gross misconduct that the person convicted by the court of law has more chances to get ILR then some one originally lied to HMRC and rectified his mistake .

Is any body got success before the tribunal after rejected ILR due to tax issue ?

Next question to ask here is, what happens if the employer/ part time employer has not paid NI or tax, Thats tax evasion by the employer and in this case the person being employed would get a refusal? Is that the case?

Thanks,
