Do we get a letter informing of the outcome first (is that the decision date on timeline?)?
Then the documents returned in special delivery envelope?

Decision and Documents come together in one envelop. Not signed for 2nd class. In time line u need to give decision date (should be on approval letter). and the date u receive it.

Then the biometric card which needs to be signed for I believe?

Then BRP delivered by courier company called DX need signature

Thanks in advance. (I'm not going to be home for a week, so wonder what to expect in my absence!)

Zee ali, thanks for reply!
Oh I hope it'll come in the special delivery envelop I included, so not get lost!

Hapoo thanks for answers too and info. Ok I will check with my track no too then!!

Dear All

i am posting my topic on this board hoping to get some answers to my questions - answers to which seem to cost around £350 + from consultants -

i have been in UK since September 2004 - and had Student VISAs to PSW to EEA Family member

only matter of concern for me ( before spending money on SET LR is below )

i have a gap in my visa of 25 Days

My visa history is as below :

STATUS Valid from Valid til

Student 30-Aug-04 30-Sep-05
Student 01-Sep-05 31-Jan-07
Student 02-Feb-07 30-Nov-08

PSW Rej'td 09-Dec-09 PSW Application rejected
Rep1 appealed 17-Dec-09 Appeal submitted againt PSW Refusal
Letter to HO by Rep1 26-Jan-09 that he is no longer acting on my behalf
HO 06-Feb-09 Appeal Dismissed by HO
Appeal rights 16-Feb-09 Appeal rights Exhausted
HO Letter 23-Feb-09 asking to depart by 27-02-09
letter to HO by Rep2 09-Mar-09 explaining misconduct by Rep1
Letter to HO by MP 13-Mar-09 explaining misconduct by Rep1

Student 03-Aug-09 30-Jun-11
PSW 27-Jun-11 27-Jan-13
EEA 04-Dec-12 04-Dec-17

Hoping to Apply for Indefinate but need to know if having a gap of 25 days from home office letter Issue date and re submission of application will cause an issue for ( same day ) ILR Visa ?

thoughts and suggestions would be much appreciated

Regards

First of all you may post your query on right place , such as Indefinite Leave to Remain or EEA route Application thread.

I believe you should be fine as maximum time to avoid illegal period is 28 days gap in between applications and you have of 25 days.

You would need all yours passports + Life in UK test + Approved English Test ( In yours case you may provide your degree on which bases you got PSW) + Evidence of Treaty rights of your EEA family member.

And a covering letter stating your immigration background may be nice to explain.

I am sure some more experts member will reply you if you could post your queries at rights place.

Hi There ! I am new here ! My queries are I am short of 3 months from 10 years long residency application so how can I cover the gap or by making what kind of applications I can buy more time to reach near 10 years ! Can I still apply 28 days before 10 years ? please advise. Thanks in advance !

Is there any one going for ILR through accelerated route?
Thx

I have received biometric card on Tuesday for my ILR.

I was going through BRP card and I found the Valid until date (Expiry date) was 5 month short of 10 years. I have raised this issue with BRP error Team. I got reply from them that they are looking into this and investigating this.

Then after I spoke to home office and learnt that the expiry date on card is expiry date of card not ILR. and I emailed BRP error team to stop further investigation.

Do I have to worry here. do they cancel my existing BRP card.

Waiting for your reply Please

Thanks

Thanks

I have received reply from Biometric department all is well.

ooooh my goodness I've received my visa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I think!!! )
I wasn't home for a week so I had both my doc delivery and courier come and gone!
I did collect my docs today but I cannot almost believe it until I see the biometric!!! (long wait for it unfortunately due to long week end!)

Its been extra stressful wait for me as I wasn't even sure if I was going to get it.
All right waiting if know it's going to work definitely, but mine wasn't like that.
I have had to go home and switch category in 2009 - for this many solicitors informed I can't apply as its discontinuation. Only 1 solicitor said I can as I was still within period.. So don't panic much if yours is similar to mine..!

Thanks for all supporters/contributors on this forum!
Huge thanks for all entering and maintaining this timeline as it really helps to get idea of turnaround times on this application.
Good luck to those who are waiting and hope you get your decisions soon too!

Congratulations sud315 and all the best for the future!!

Hi Guys....

I have also received 2nd email today by HO stating Dear Customer , your recent Application is still under consideration. But I have noted there is slight change between the 1st Email and the 2nd Email at the End stating ( You will be notified of the outcome of your application in writing)

I dont know is that same with rest of the applicants or just me , I would appreciate that If someone can check their Email and confirm.

Also It seems after receiving 2nd Email , Applicants are getting decision either in couple of days or couple of weeks.

Thanks

@ Khan1980
I did receive the 2nd email and yes it is stated at the end that you will be notified of the outcome of your application in writing.
I received this email on 18.05.2015 and the decision was made on 19.05.2015. I did receive the approval on 21.05.2015.

So you don't need to worry. As this was the final email from HO, and decision comes in writing along documents. Therefore, they let you know that you will be notified by writing. I hope you are not far now, probably in next or following week you will get your decision. Good Luck
