Hi,

I have got my ILR application approved yesterday with the minimal documents applying at Sheffield premium center. This is my first time I ever booked in person and like to share my experience to all those who is applying in same route. I havent much researched but submitted all the relevant docs with confident enough about the decision making on my application. Enclosed below my cover letter with all the docs attached with my application.

Applicants : Myself as main applicant with 2 dependants (spouse + child)

ONE KEY NOTE: I have seen that you need to fill another form after submitting your docs at the counter, which has a number of questions focusing on Self-assessment. Hence, I think they are more concentrating on this aspect, so would be nice to keep all the SA302's of previous years up-to-date and are clean on figures with relevant to the previous submitted extension applications.

Nothing more into it, but self assessment submitted for which years' and what evidence docs are you enclosing with the application etc..

I came across a guy whose application was rejected as something not matched with the SA302's submitted to the details on his previous extension application.... which I think its good to keep this information intact...

is it possible to post exact questions asked in the form please . , it will be really helpful

Did you amend any of your returns ?

Congratulations and thanks for sharing an exemplary and 'textbook' example.

My takeaway is that scrupulous preparation is the key.

Hi
did you attached any evidence of absence in 5 years period, I mean any air tickets, letters etc...OR you just gave dates of exit/entry and number of days of absence in total?
thanks
