On what grounds did you apply for DLR?

I read the OP's previous posts (wish people would stick to one thread) and it seems OP is on WP Dependant visa, WP holder has packed up and left the UK not wanting ILR, and OP hasn't/doesn't want to leave so has applied for DL.

An exercise in futility for me, and more cash for the UKBA Office Party....

Your best choice is to take your 4 children and go back to your country and apply for a work permit.
As this country is in need of good nurses, you should stand a good chance of getting a WP but you are wasting your time and money if you apply from inside the UK.
Many solicitors will take your money and promise you much but deliver little or nothing

I wouldn't be surprised if the OP's solicitor hasn't sent the app yet. He sounds very confident the payment 'will' be taken and unflustered that it hasn't yet.

If DLR gets refused would OP have to declare this fact on any future UK visa application? Including wp?

Would refused DLR have a negative effect on future applications? I suppose it would certainly be the case with visitor visa.[/i]

I think the solicitor might be right in saying you might have a good case.

If you have children who are attending school in the UK and on a lawful capacity, then Article 8 might be engaged.

Contributors have to remember that this woman has 4 children, and if all of them are attending school in the UK, uprooting the , would effectively be quite unsettling for the children and could be a perfect Article 8 scenerio.
