Hi all, my 10 years was on the basis of Tier 4 student (5 years) + PSW (2 years) + 7 months waiting for HO to approve FLR(M) visa (new rules) + 2.5 years on FLR(M), and I applied a bit early so my visa wasn't expired when I sent in the application (but not a full 28 days in advance of my 10th ...
Hi everyone, just wanted to update the Google doc, but for some reason it won't let me edit anything. I'm very happy to say that I received my approval and documents via Royal Mail (signed for) yesterday, with a letter dated 13 October 2015 - so less than 2 months from when I submitted the ...
In that box I very briefly described my ties to the UK and why I wanted to stay - e.g., my UK spouse and his family live here, I have a job and many friendships that I have built over the past 10 years. That info likely wasn't required, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to spell it out.
Thanks again sushdmehta, I really appreciate your advice! I need to stop thinking about the FLR(M) requirements. Regarding question 3: On the SET(LR) form it asks what dates you were absent (from, to) and also to list a Reason for the absence. I have a spreadsheet that I was going to include with ...

Some information about my timeline is available here: http://www.immigrationboards.com/immigration-for-family-members/flr-m-waiting-times-2011-2014-t77192-2640.html ...
Hello, more good news from an August applicant who has been silently reading this forum since September. Yesterday I found out that I've been granted a 30-month spouse/partner visa (BRP card arrived on Monday). However, the cover letter from the UKBA caseworker doesn't inspire much confidence in ...
Thank you so much for your reply! I guess that makes sense, although it's extremely puzzling that there is no explanation whatsoever of the reasons for refusal. Has this happened to anyone else? In any case, should I just take this decision as good news and move on with my life without asking the ...
Hi all, I've been following the FLR(M) processing times thread silently for a while now, but I decided to register because today I received my documents, along with a very confusing cover letter. My 30-month BRP arrived yesterday and DH and I celebrated (we applied 4 August 2012 so believed it fell ...
