Overstayed! Can she get a carer’s status visa?

Does anyone know if an overstayed person came in on a visit visa has the chance to get someone to sponsor her as a carer? A friend in London application has been turned down first attempt and she is hopeful that she will get it on the second attempt. As far as I know, there’s no chance for this but apparently, her future sponsor or her solicitor are bollocking her that this is possible. She has been spending lump sums of money in it already. So if anyone can clarify this, so I can inform her not to allow this people to fool her. Thanks a lot!

They ain't the ones fooling her, she is the one fooling the UK by arriving on a visit visa and totally disregarding the rules and treating returning to the PI as an option rather than a legality, she is one of the reasons visit visas are sometimes hard to get for legal visitors, there's quite a few overstaying TNT pinays in London

I'd be surprised if she gets a visa to stay legally now but carers are in demand with the effects of the pandemic on that workforce.
There is a chance that the solicitor is a shark in the water feeding off scraps.
The sponsor just wants someone to fill the job vacancy so please let us know how it goes for her, Mystica.

Difficult but not impossible, was the reason for the refusal stated solely as the overstay? when did she overstay and for how long did she overstay? Does the solicitor have good knowledge of immigration law, is the sponsor a reputable person and company with a history of placements of carers in the UK?
As @Druk1 has said, she has made a fool of the immigration laws in this country before, why should it be let to happen again?
This link may help you and her decide if a new application has any chance of success

She has now been overstayed for a year and as far as I know, she has been promised by this British guy that his 82 years old mother can sponsor her. I know for the fact that this British guy cannot marry her for entering with the wrong visa and if they tried to get married she will be arrested on the day of her wedding and deported ASAP. I’m afraid she is fed with all the wrong information reason she has overstayed. She came here to bring her late British husband’s remains to his children, she has been married to her late British husband for 13 years. On her visit visa stay she found a British guy on a dating site which has told her she doesn’t need to go back home so it won’t be difficult for her to come back to the UK and promised her they will help to sponsor her. I don’t know who else has been feeding her this wrong information but they are all not following the UK immigration rules. It hurts to know that she is allowing this people to manipulate the situation. And it annoys me so much to think she is putting herself in danger as a fellow country woman I am concerned how will she end up with. The British guy she is staying with has become aggressive and always threatens her.

Based on what you have now said she needs to sever all ties and move away from this situation as quickly as possible.

She has been saying she will leave him 5 times now according to some friends who knew her but she kept going back as she is easy to fooled and holding on to the promises they can eventually sponsor her. She is working her arse off and she has given them lump sum of money already. She thinks she owes them a favour but what she doesn’t know, is that they are using her. 1. to take care of the old lady 2. To sleep with this jerk. If she really wish to stay, she should stay away from troublesomes as they are not helping her at all! They are just taking advantage of her!

It’s sad and I find it mean, when someone comes to you for a help and instead of helping, they look on the angle what benefitted them.

To be fair, I'm sure it's not just Pinays/Pinoys that 'overstay' their Tourist/Visitor Visas!

Just goes to prove, it's not just 'foreigners' taking advantage of 'rich' Westerners...

Yeah, I have heard that lots of British people (men in particular) have overstayed their visas in Thailand, for example.

Hence the need for rules and visa fees.

To be fair, show me where I said it was? But, there are a lot of TNT pinays in London, they certainly don't help the cause of those who try to do things the legit way

To be fair to everyone, we all have our ambitions, dreams and plans. Sometimes it just don’t happen the way we want it. Some people are risks takers and some are afraid of taking the risks. Those who are risks takers, they do their best to reach their goals. Those who aren’t, they stay where they are and this includes of not aiming any goals or help to improved themselves. So which one, you want to be?

I admires those who are risks takers with full of ambitions. Aim what you want to aims, reach what ever goals you want to reached. But we should NOT judge anyone at all! You may be lucky to process your legality according to rules and regulations but that doesn’t mean we can be mean to those who cannot do it in a proper way to process theirs. After all it’s their choice to be in that situation not ours. Just saying!

The more you tell of this person's situation, the sadder it becomes...

I'm no legal expert, but -

If they were British I'm sure, from what you have said already, the Modern Slavery/'slave labour' laws could come into play.
Is this person able to get away from the controlling partner/family - if only for a short time? Regardless of what immigration laws they have broken I would urge them to seek help - possibly from the Citizens Advice Bureau or even the police - to get to a 'place of safety', if only temporarily.

I am trying my best to give advise and someone from the church has been trying to get her leave that place when the British guy is not around. Apparently he goes away every Friday to Sunday then comes back on Monday. She left last week and came back again as she felt guilty and said she owes the supposed to be sponsor the old lady money. But I told her, she doesn’t owe them anything anymore as they both have used her on their own benefits. She is so kind and felt guilty about owing them money as they claims they have spent £8000 on her visa processing and she has been working her arse off taking part time jobs here and there and give them the money she earns. I believe the church people are trying to get her today. Will get more update later.

he goes away every Friday to Sunday then comes back on Monday.

ha ha--back to his wife and kids no doubt. Tells them he works away all week.

i think the best advice you can give to your friend is to buy a single flight home.

What a tangled Web we weave when first we practice to deceive

But she doesn’t want to go home! She is now with the church people and they are helping her.

They may give moral/emotional support, but what more does she expect them to do???
