hi, i was just wondering whats best to do regarding police clearance. i was living in u.k illegally for 7 years. do i declare it? what are my options. my case is just starting at nvc. IR1. can i not just don`t write it down? am sure am not alone in this situation,pls help!

Not divulging that you lived in the UK for that time would be a misrepresentation and can get you a deportation and bar for life. Complete all forms truthfully. If the U.K. won't give you a police clearance, you may want to discuss your options with a good immigration attorney.

Yeah... dont declare it, lie...

Come on guy ! Dont post such obsurd questions. The process is about being honest and transparent.

thanks for your advice.greatly appreciated. seeing an immigration lawyer is the best option. cheers and more power!

Good luck. I think it's your best possible course of action.
