Govt to grant immigration concession to 10yrs overstayers from the Commonwealth

Petition Details

Some Commonwealth nationals are in the UK as 10 yrs overstayers
Commonwealth nationals have strong ties with UK
Our forefathers fought for Britain in I & II world war
Our citizens are being recruited for UK military
Most overstayers have transferrable skills that are beneficial to UK economy

Additional Information

Some Commonwealth nationals came to the UK as:

Spouses whose marriages did not work but could not return having sacrificed everything in their countries;
Individuals who left their countries at very young ages but cannot qualify under the immigration rules because they are single;
Minors who cant renew their visas because their parents are overstayers and they do not qualify under the immigration rules

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you mean by an "immigration concession".

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what change you would like the Government or Parliament to make.
