ILR PEO deferred Apps - Further checks/Additional docs cases

It may be due to his lack of legal status when he was previously in the UK. When you stated in the form that he hadn't overstayed this may have flagged up the need to check the circumstances of his illegal residence here.

Yeah you could be right with that!

I was correct to answer no though as technically never overstayed as he never had a visa but they will see from prev application we declared he came illegally so is that ok???

Anyone advise?

**question around have you ever overstayed visa?
**Answered NO as hubby never had a visa to overstay as came illegally...

came here illegally went home and then applied for uk spouse and came back legally. This was declared on uk spouse visa application but have i answered above correctly?

Hi All,

Got a letter today that my Indefinite Leave has been approved. Its gonna be 4wks tomorrow that i applied in PEO Liverpool and i was told they need to do further checks. I'm so happy.

Glad to hear! Nice when people update! What did u think your aditional checks were?

Did u get the letter recorded delivery?

How long were you told at the appointment as we have still not heard and we have been waiting just two weeks although told 1 week to get docs back! x

All kind of checks that UKV&I deem necessary to clear any doubts that they may have regarding your application.
Read through this topic and you will know how long it usually takes ... no application is the same and therefore timelines may vary drastically.

Great news we got our passports and the BRP today so so relieved! The letter mentioned satisfying the FM appendix so must have been checking my wages etc even though had all the right documents and slips and bank statements! Could have been cause I had 20k in account as sold a share save so maybe thought we were at it lol! Good luck to those waiting it took 3 weeks and 3 days for us!

ALLHUMDILLILLAH i got my ILR

Congrats guys who all have received their ILR now.

I got a call from HO on saturday last week that my ILR is confirmed now (hopefully that means its approved!) and they are sending my original documents back. I opted to get these by post. Can someone pls update on the following in case you have already experienced it...

- Which postal service HO uses for sending back original documents and BRP card?
- In case nobody is at home then how they contact you i.e. missed card or email etc?
- How much time norally it takes to get this delivered?

Thanks guys.

hi all,

i have received my ILR now. It took around 3 weeks for me to get everything back.

I'm not sure what the additional checks were to be honest. I suspect its to do with the tax i pay on my salary though. And yes, the letter was through recorded delivery

Hi Never, unfortunately, they didnt say what kind of checks were carried out.

if u paid full tax then nothing to worry about they hv checked all my documents because all the documents they have put new staples pins
so its means they have verified all my documents all my history as well

After waiting for 4 months I thought I should ask If someone else is also waiting for more than 4 months.

We applied for ILR 3 +2 at Croydon on 21st April 2015. After waiting for hours the case worker handed me a letter stating additional checks required.

I really don't any see any reason for holding my application that long, as I am a full time employee for 5 years.

Is there anyone waiting to hear from HO as well ?

Hi,

I am a silent reader of this forum. I have applied my ILR under Tier 1 General rules. I applied on 10th August @ PSC Croydon, I am fully employed also i have my own small business, I have already submitted my payslips along with accountant letter and divident vouchers + company's P&L accounts, Business's corporation tax returns etc.

After wait of 3 hrs case worker called me an asked to provide business bank statements for past 12 months which i was not carrying hence she asked me to go to bank and ask them to print it (which normally banks refused). Case worker said she wanted to see if i am paying anything to HMRC. which i told her not yet as i have recently filed my tax return and i have grace period of 9 months in which i have pay my corporation tax. She was little puzzled then she asked me wait agian but given an indication that they will give me a letter today to provide addition documents also she said she is going to consult to her senior. About another one hour she came back with letter asked to send additional documents in post i.e. business bank statement, past 3 years tax returns and past 5 years of employment history confirmation from HMRC.

Now i applied my extension application in 2012. it was also based on employement and running my own business which was successfull however at the end of 2012 and start of 2013 i stopped my all business activity due to extra family responsibilies and winded up my business as i was sole person who was running everything.

I paid all of my due taxes to HMRC, cleared my other liabilities and asked company's house to dissolve my previous business which was successfully dissolved on 1st quarter of 2013. As business was closed so i distroyed all of the paperwork including bank statements etc.

Now my accountant said he cannot access any information on his side on HMRC website as business was dissolved and all of the liabilities were cleared.

I called HMRC and they said the same however one of their kind officer send a written confirmation that my previous business does not have any outstanding corporation tax matters due.

I have already send all documents UKVi has asked me including my previous 5 years employement history + confirmation from HMRC that all of my previous taxes were paid plus comfirmation from companies house as well. I wrote a cover letter and explain that i did not had any other business activity from end of 2012 till mid of 2014.

My question is that what are my chances and these days how long they are taking to reply if they asked for an addiiton documents. It was PEO application and i was asked to send documents on PEO address.

i assume it should be quick as i paid premium fee?

any thoughts?

i have my ILR granted, Received documents and BRP yesterday.

Hello guys! I am new to this group and have read the success stories here. I would appreciate your opinion abt my application. I am on tier 1 entrepreneur and my ten years completed this August so I booked an appointment for 3rd August in Birmingham. I submitted all the documents including my current pp with my application form apart from my previous passports which were lost at HO during my last application when I was given Tier1 visa. Anyway, after 2 hours I was called at the counter and the ECO acknowledged that she couldn't assess my absences during 10 years and I must provide attendance sheets from all educational institutions I had attended since my arrival and also employers letter confirming my employment with them(please bear in mind i submitted all the payslips and P60 at the time of the application on top of that all original HOME OFFICE, BRP letters etc) well long story short i managed to get the letters confirming my educational and employment history here and sent it to them along with college lecture schedule,bank statements etc. n they received it on 17th August 2015 n since then I have been on my toes cause I haven't heard from them.. Does anyone have any idea if HO is obliged to deal deferred premium service applications in any particular time frame.. I shall appreciate your thoughts. Ty
