18 month lapse in initial spouse visa

Post by rella » Sat Jan 27, 2007 2:24 pm

John and others,

A young woman from another forum I'm a member of is married to a British citizen and she allowed her initial FLR to lapse by 18 months. She needs to start a new job, and needless to say, the employer won't hire her while she's illegal.

What can she do at this point? Can she apply for her ILR when she's officially an overstayer? What should she do to fix this mess and what is the likely response of the HO?

Many thanks.
