Hi All

I am still waiting to hear from H/O when i calld them they told me that there is nothing wrong with my application only that they are very busy so i should just wait.

I contacted my MP na he was very helpful he told me that he was going to write to H/O and ask them to speed up the process of my application since its more than 8 months now.

But i am sure this will not change anything since many of you who are waiting have already been in contact with your MPs.

Hope one of us will hear good news soon.

Hi Again Folks,
1- still nothing from H/O
2- i can't get hold of my MP on his phone and when i went to his office i was told by his assistant that she haven't got a clue about my case and that they were too busy with the Scottish referendum and haven't done much work on peoples problems.
3- i went to a Solicitor again and he said that i should wait for another 2 months as that will make it exactly 2 years since my application was sent and we will sue the H/O (i don't know on what grounds).
4- Keep your chins up people we will get our DLR's sooner or later.
Good Luck Everyone

I recently wrote to the UKVI requesting that they confirm that I have leave to remain for employment purposes. They then wrote to me acknowledging receipt of my application for leave to remain. Since applying In February I had not received such confirmation. The letter then went on to state that it does not confirm whether I was entitled to work or live in the UK. It goes on to say that a prospective employer should check with the Home Office. In a further paragraph the letter then contradicts itself by saying since my application was made before my previous leave to remain had expired the previous conditions apply.

Interesting response though. I plan to write another letter querying this contradiction. Hopefully, they will get bored with me and then assess my application.

No i have not send the wrong form and no my asylum claim was refused and i was granted a discretionary leave to remain under human rights laws.

i have just been offered a job as a web designing team leader in a big internet marketing company and all they want is to see my passport. (SHIT)

how is not the wrong form if the website and the form status that "application form DL if you were refused asylum and given Discretionary Leave"
DL form for people who claim asylum and there asylum refuse but given Discretionary Leave outside the immigration rules
if your non-asylum application was refused but you were given Discretionary Leave you need to send FLR O form

DL for for people who received same this letter

Odat DL form is for people who was refused asylum and were granted DLR and thats what happened to me.
so DL form is the right one and it is the one i sent.
here's the header of the letter i got with my DLR initial decision.

Hi baker,

no they never sent me anything back not even a letter to acknowledge the receipt of my application, i had to write them a letter asking if they received my documents and that's when they answered back saying that all documents were received and they will be processing my application in due course.

Odat I received a letter from mp they said I will get a decision in October 2015 that there's nothing to worry about and my case is with the complex unit which takes long 12mths from now!!!!!can you imagine so am planning to ask them for a document thatam allowed yo work because the employers wont let me.I have a feeling pple who have stayed for at least 10yrs with dlr are being delayed.so may be they want to give is indefinite since elections is next year what do you think guys.Another legacy like in 2010 pple were granted during elections.
