Hello,

What is your nationality and how long have you lived in the UK? Where is your family?

I am fro tunisia, i came to uk to fulfill my dream to be a sound engineer and i am living here for two years now, my family are in tunisia and i can't go back there because of the political problems after the revolution and the difficulty to find a living there. Thx


 

Thank you.

Unless you are able to show that sending you back to Tunisia would be in breach of your human rights, you will not be able to regularise your status in the UK simply because you are a talented person.

You may apply for further leave to remain using form FLR(O) and give as much evidence and detail as possible about the political situation back home and that you would be in danger if sent back home. The fact that you are talented and a music producer will not help your application or the fact that you would find it difficult to make a living back home, I am afraid, but the fact that your life could be in danger would help your application to remain in the UK and it is possible that you could be granted discretionary large to remain in the UK.

I would suggest that you appoint an immigration lawyer to assist with your application as it will be complicated, e.g. See here

Hope this helps and good luck
