Conviction Not Disclosed on Previous Application(Experience)

[kais]

Hi

Gone through and read some posts regarding driving and other convictions not disclosed on previous application but disclosing or disclosed on ILR application effect. Could please Gurus, Seniors and other fellows share their experience that what outcome they had/have.

I know for sure that it is a MUST thing to disclose convictions on all applications but as I am in situation like this that didn't/couldn't disclose in the last application I made in 2012 (Conviction Feb 2009, application before i didnt have the conviction anyway).

At least we could build up hope with positive experiences left. Could please any guru or senior make it get going.

Cheers

Hi

I had driving conviction in 2009 , and I extended my Tier 2 General visa in 2012 in which i didn't mention it as Criminal conviction and it wasn't due to deception , it was more a naive thing thinking

A) its not a criminal conviction

B) We only have to declare it when apply for ILR or BC.

I will disclose it when applying ILR. I know it doesn't fall under 24 month rule so I am okay that side, only started getting worried about if HO takes it as deception. Should I probably include a note while disclosing Conviction that

this is only conviction i ever had and i only had one extension after this where i didn't mention reasoning above.


My Questions are

1) Is it a MUST thing that if some one didn't disclose it BUT disclosing now when applying ILR that it will be refused considering it a deception or a discretion apply???

2) Is it as serious as E.G. Having conviction in past 24 months or less serious

Gurus/Seniors Comments please.

Thanks[/b]

You are not alone. quite few members didn't declare it before and now applying ILR soon. I think we have to wait and see if anyone is successful

all the forum members and Guru saying it's a deception so ILR will be refused.
