Thanks NOG.

Just speculating here, maybe making the UKBA aware that you had applied for your SAR by enclosing the CID Search Report helped the caseworker to find your files quickly. Of-course I may be wrong.

In my case I applied for my SAR last year and received all the details then, but I did not include any evidence of my SAR this time with my application.

Many thanks

Hello everyone,

By the grace of god i received BRP card yesterday dated 03/09/12. Just to let you guys know i had gap in my 10 yrs residency back in 2009 due to picture , my application was invalid and returned to me after my visa expired. i resend fresh application after 4 days and visa was granted. Total gap was 14 days.. I applied through solicitor , he suggested not to apply for SAR file and didn't mention in the application regarding GAP. I don't know why. At the end it payed off. Thanks for the lovely people for this forum it was great and immense moral support that i got from it. Good luck to everyone u all will get it soon.

Could someone pls edith my information in the sky line.

Thanks again for the support.

On SET (O) form version 07/12 if you look at the top right hand corner of Page 7, you will see version 04/12 instead of version 07/12, though on the bottom of the page its correct as version 07/12.
I was just wondering whether it will make a problem if I apply for my ILR on this form. Shall I apply using this version or wait until they correct this error.
Your help is much appreciated.

Hi alambiomedeng.
Congratulations for your success with ILR.
Regarding the 14 days gap you mentioned, can you clarify it a little bit please? As far as I know, after an application is returned as invalid, due to a picture or a payment issue like yours, the UKBA gives 10 days to fix the reason of the rejection and reapply. How did you count this 14 days? Was it 14 days after your previous visa expired, or was it 14 days after the rejection decision (due to section 3C) or in any other way?

Hello guys
Am just a bit worried about my application as i just discovered that i did not declare some info in the application which i ought to have, but out of ignorance. In Page 15, it says "Do you or any dependants who are applying with you have any criminal convictions in the
UK or any other country (including traffic offences) or any civil judgments made against you?" I ticked No because i did not realize that a CCJ is a civil judgement and CCJ was made against me in July 2010

My questions are
1) Should I write to them and explain why I ticked No and also, should I print page 15 and fill it out with the correct info of the CCJ and asked them to insert the new one into the right page

2)Which of the address should i write to ? Liverpool or Croydon ?

3) What implication would a CCJ has on my application if declared or not declare ?
Thanks guys for your usual help, Appreciate

Hi Guys

I will be varying applying from FLR (M) to SET (O) for 10 yrs long residence Visa, I haven't lived more than 45 days away and only left UK on 3 or 4 occasions but I don't have the exact dates except last one as my current and previous passport is currently with UKBA.

I don't want to ask for SAR report either not sure if it will have have left and returned dates but I'll have to wait around 40 days.

Do you know if I leave date left and returned to UK under SECTION 6 - IMMIGRATION HISTORY and attach a cover letter to say please check the dates on the passport you currently hold , will UKBA have any problem with this?

Thanks in Advance.

@let_koko, might be worth seeking professional help with it. I see from the timeline that you are 5 weeks into your application. It is likely that any correspondence sent will be picked up by UKBA since you have not enrolled your biometric information just as yet, however, I personally think it would be beneficial to seek legal advice on just what information needs to be sent to UKBA.

Thanks NOG,
I did a search on myself with www.trustonline.org.uk and also the county court, but nothing was recorded against me. Its either the judgement was not registered or i was not sure of the decision of the judge as i cannot remember what happen on that day. What am sure of is, i was summoned to the County Court for not paying of house rentCCJ
Should i just write the Home office and tell them this ?
Thanks

@let_koko, I may be completely wrong here but my understanding is that a court summons is very different to a CCJ. I was abroad for a fair amount of time this year and missed paying council tax. Upon my return I found a court summons, however, paid the outstanding amount over the phone and was assured that no CCJ was issued in my name. To be honest I do not know how it works with traffic offences and it would be best to speak to a "professional" if in doubt.

Hello guys, I posted my application last Tuesday (04/Sep) and it was delivered to UKBA on Wednesday. I just received my acknowledgement letter today and the date of the letter is 06/Sep. I did not expect to receive their letter in less than a week! Hopefully this is a sign that they are working much more efficiently.
Cheque has been cleared today (11/Sep).
