Hi all,

I am applying for ILR on 19th Aug. In 2011 after my extension, I lost my BRP and my passport. I registered an FIR immediately and got my new passport and BRP in 2 months. However will this affect my ILR application in any way.
I have no UK stamps on the passport that was lost. I have a copy of all the pages of my lost passport and Biometric. I have a copy of the FIR from Met police. Do I need to specify all this anywhere in the cover letter explaining all these details. Do I need these documents attested by solicitor.

Regards
Balaji

Just to let you know my ILR was granted without any issues at East Cryden office. I didnt mention this in the cover letter anywhere.
I just submitted the standard documents and got an approval in 2 hours.
I think since you might have already applied for a new BRP and cancelled the old one and have gone through the entire process of proving your points they dont really need this info for ILR.
Hope this helps someone.

thanks
