Dear All,
I have had my IlR approved from Croydon!

1. There are two car parks near to home office. Please allow half an hour extra. They do let you in before.
2. Please dont waste time putting docs in different sleeves or files or in anything as they mix all the docs together at desk.
Just make 2 files:
Just arrange all docs in serial order as per form in file 1.
photocopy all docs properly without cropping cutting sides and put in file 2.

They will give you two envelopes and you put those two piles of docs in those two envelops.

3. There is photobooth there and cafeteria open except Saturday where you wait for 2 hours for decision.
Please make sure you use correct version of form coz they keep updating them every now and then.

4. I had all P60s and absence letters but was not asked for anything.

i did not overcomplicate my file by putting a lot of stuff but did slip a small note at the start that main applicant is waiting in the cafeteria with a lot of other docs if needed plz call...

Last but not the least, Amber is no less than a saint! She is the most active mod and does reply most of the time without charging you guys anything. So please remember her in your prayers!

Many Congratulations!

How many months of bank statements did you provide with your application?

Is there any minimum fund maintenance requirement?

Thanks
