Hi dear,
I think you will be going today for you ILR , i wish you all the best,
Could you please share your exp , it will
help others . I am also going for same day service in August so it will be great help.
If possible please share the document you presented and any question if case worker asked you?


Thanks.

Dear Wings.007
I would like to know how many days ago you booked your PEO appointment. Will you please give details how you booked.

Thank you in advance.
Dear Wings.007
Please check the ILR documents submission blogs in immigration boards. As you have Tier 1 Visa i am not sure about that. However, have you checked the ILR guidelines hope you will see the documents you need will be there. I see ILR (LR) application does not need too many documents. Please checked the documents lists from the guidelines and at the end of the form. Hope we hear good result from you soon.

What would be the best action on this situation? Whether i will apply 28 days before 10 years long residence for ILR or should i send the ILR application form by post to cover the time or Should i apply FLR (FP) to cover my 25 days for Long residence and Vary for ILR when 10 years fully completed.

Thank you senior members for your reply and help.
Yes you can apply 28 days before your 10 years completion. I am also going to peo 26 days before my 10 years although i got still 1 year valid visa. Do not apply FLR FP. Apply ILR SET LR with confidence.
Dear Rajj121

I see you have the visa and in general if you have visa to cover the date upto 10 years you can without doubt apply or go for PEO. In my case i can go for PEO but i would have short of 25 days to complete the qualifying period. The guidelines language is not clear to me. If you have any clear Spammy Spammer anywhere where interpreted elaborately will you please help me to see that link or information.

Thank you for your reply.

Both of u can apply 28 days early.

I have a similar query, Can 1 of the Guru's shed some light on this matter kindly? Many thanks in advance

Dear Members
As i have read the guideline and it seems to me it is not clear to me whether an applicant need to have complete 10 years or have the visa until 10 years is not clear to me. Will you please anyone explain and elaborate clearly?

Thank you for your reply.

Hi Set
Application sent 04/04/15
Money taken from account 09/0415
Acknowledgement received 13/04/15
Biometricinvite sent 20/4/15
Biometric done 23/4/15
Document received 11/07/15
Biometric card received 14/07/15

I sent just a couple of proof of address but sent all passport and home office reference for past applications and letter from home office.. I also included police caution which was 8 years ago..
I'll encourage anyone with out break in residency or police problem to do the same day service, saves you the blood pressure of 3-6months wait and stagnacy stagnacy.

Finally one with an idea how to go about applying for my wife and how long does it take for her to be able to apply for Indefinite leave to remain as she has been in the uk with me since 2011 and been a dependant on me..

I moved to the UK in 2002 aged 7. I have had visas throughout, mainly through my mother who is a diplomat and therefore had an Exempt Dependent Residence Permit.

However, in recent times, there has been 2 gaps in my visas, both about 2 months long as there was a long process in receiving it after I had turned 18 between school and universities. I will include a cover letter and e-mails with the FCO which would explain the gaps in the visas. In that period I hadn't left the country.

I will also be applying through PEO/PSC.

How will I fare with my application? Some advice will be grateful!!! Cheers

Dear all,

I'm going for SET(LR) PEO appointment on 14th August. As my case is straight forward (no rejections, all extensions done on time, no of days out of country within the limit, etc), I expect to get my ILR decision on the same day. I will have to apply for my wife's FLR(M) within the next two weeks before her Tier-2 dependant visa expires. She will also go with PEO rather than postal application. The question I have is, does she need my BRP card (ILR) or is the ILR letter from HO would be sufficient for her FLR(M). If she needs my BRP card, how long it takes generally for HO to send this after PEO decision?

Thanks.
