‘The Court of Appeal handed down its long awaited decision in Hoque & Ors v SSHD [2020] EWCA Civ 1357 on the 23 October 2020, here they address the issue of gaps in lawful residence in 10 Years Long residence applications. Specifically, it was the operation of 276B(v) with 39E, which had provided an exception for overstayers, where periods of overstaying could fall to be disregarded under 276B(v), that was the subject of much scrutiny by the Court.’
