looking at my paperwork I had made an application for leave to remain outside the immigration rules on the basis that I met all requirements of Paragragh 281. So i used the flr(o)
My appeal under article 8 was dismissed in 2009, so reapplied in 2010

Please note that, in some cases, we may have to ask for other documents in addition to those specified in this form.

-Two recent identical passport-size photographs of each dependant included in section 2 and applying for an extension of stay in the UK with you, with their full name written on the back of each photograph.
-Your current passport or travel document. If you last entered the UK on a previous passport or travel document,
-please also provide this document if you have it.
-The current passport(s) or travel document(s) of each dependant included in section 2 and applying for an extension of stay in the UK with you. If they last entered the UK on previous passport(s) or travel document(s),

That doesn't apply to you re: adequate maintenance, no need for financial documents.

GOOD AFTERNOON

MY DLR EXPIRES IN EARLY 2017. SO NOW I HAVE A PROBLEM. MY PASSPORT HAS EXPIRED IN 2015 AND I HAVE CALLED THE EMBASSY (MOZAMBICAN) AND THEY SAID TO RENEW I HAVE TO GO TO MOZAMBIQUE AS THEY ARE ISSUING NEW BIOMETRIC PASSPORTS. I DONT HAVE THE POSSIBILITIES AT THE MOMENT AS I HAVE CHILDREN. SO WAS WONDERING IF I CAN APPLY FOR ILR WITH AN EXPIRED PASSPORT?

THANK YOU.
