Congratulations on the appeal! Would you be able to share details of how you went about writing the cover letter? Was this done through a lawyer? Without divulging too much, did you explain much about the 'incident' or simply discuss your current character etc?

Sending this for anyone else in the future searching with the same issue. Good luck

Hi, thanks for sharing this. I had 2 motoring convictions, no insurance and taking away without consent. In essence I borrowed my mates car 1989 and got caught.
i was in the Army at the time and got punished there also. Double whammy. I hope this doesn’t stop my visa.

Appreciate if you could share some dialogue you used for the letter you sent.

Cheers
