U.K. visa refusal and 10 year ban (false documents). Can I apply while the ban is in effect? [closed]

I was banned for 10 years in 2009 when I applied for UK business visitor visa. I was a travel agent and my franchise had expired 3 months before and I was in process of renewing it. I applied for visa and got rejected for false information as I no longer had a franchise.

Can I now apply for a visitor visa without contesting the ban. It's been 8 years already. What are the chances?

Best Answer

Zero. A ban is a ban. It's not yet 2019. I do not even understand the question. Also note that after the ban expires they will be incredibly suspicious and it'll be very, very hard for you to get a visa into the UK again. If you are willing to make life altering decisions based on the crazy ramblings of a random Internet stranger then try to organize the rest of your life in a way that doesn't include entering the UK.
