Eh? It's only his signature, not aimed at you. I don't see how it can be offensive to anyone in any case....

Safina,

Thanks for helping me to start my day off with a good old chuckle!

If you look at Vinny's post you'll see that s/he's given you a link to discretionary leave. (Sorry Vinny not sure if you're a Vincent or Vincentia).

The writing on the bottom is just our signature - generally an opinion we express about our personal views on life and experiences. It shows up everytime we post a reply. They can be serious or funny or just plain crazy.

The Home Office is granting ILR to some asylum seekers and refugees depending on the country of origin and the date of application.

Which country are you from?
Oh, the drama...!

i think your case is a legacy case and you might be granted ILR under the legacy programme


good luck
