It's actually for my elder brother. He had submitted a new application and clearly stated that he voluntarily left the UK, he had no criminal record whatsoever, he only overstayed for 3momths and left voluntarily. He was on a x2yrs visa then.

Your chances depend on how well you package the application.

If you're positive that you don't have any problems over there and your fingerprints are not in any of their databases for any crime, then I don't think there's going to be any problem if you package your application well.

On the VAF, they only asked for past 10-year immigration histories, and yours is over 10 years.

If you still have a copy of the expired visa, upload it to your application, and note in the additional comment section that I have been to the place before for a 2-week vacation.

Well he already applied and disclosed full details about his overstayed. Just curious to know his fate

Wrong advice. Someone I know did this … 10 years ago is when his happened, hid this information and in 2024 has just started their 10 year ban for deceit and coverup… and trust that the 10 year ban is for life.
If any applicant doesn’t know what is on file for them, then they should do a SAR and find out before heeding your advice of withholding information @starline5[/quote]

For someone who previously overstayed his visa about 13yrs ago, what's his chances of getting visa if he apply now?
