Hi All
I just woundered if someone can help me out. I made SET LR application on 6th March 2015 Bio enrolled 2nd April 2015 and my current leave is going to expire in August 2015. It's been almost two months since I made an application and one month since I enrolled for Bio. I haven't received any response yet. No query nothing at all. Still waiting. How long nowadays HO taking time to decide applications for SET LR ??? It's really very stressful. Thanks in advance for reply.

[sad.1]

I would like to ask to you

Even I have 3 points and £100 fine but it wasn't any crime offence or court case.
Simply paid my fine and got 3 points for mobile.usage.

quote="rzbca"]Hello Friends, I have some good news to share.My ILR (LR) has been approved today in Liverpool PEO!

My experience:

10 am appointment but reached there at 9:30. Straightaway entered after security check.

Done Biometric in 20 mins. After bio they took 45 mins to decide.came out at 11. Very professional and straight forward. I was bit worried because i declare my TFL offence for fine.

I was on 4 yrs student+2 year PSW+ 4 yrs tier 1 General (last extension i showed employment .

I personally think if you have no gaps or nothing complex then you should use premium service. The money you spend really pays off.

This forum is great and I thank many of them on this forum as last 1 month I was a silent reader for every single post! Keep it up guys.

I wrote all this thinking some should benefit with my experience.

Hi everyone,

I have followed this board for a while and appreciate all the knowledge that is shared.

My situation:

Arrived UK 29-09-05.

4 years on Tier 4, followed by 2 years on Tier 2 (general), followed by 3 years on Tier 4 again, followed by Tier 2 (general) I currently hold.

Meet all requirements for 10-year ILR (schedule of absences < 540 days, no convictions, no breaks in leave etc.) therefore eligible to apply for 10-year ILR on 01-09-15 (Home Office accepts applications 28 days early).

Have recently learned I am being made redundant by my Tier 2 employer effective 29-05-15. Therefore leave will be curtailed to 28-07-15 (termination date + 60 days), or, as I understand happens in practice, a extra week or so to account for the time it takes my employer to notify the Home Office and the Home Office to curtail my leave.

Therefore, I will probably have my leave to remain curtailed to a date sometime in early-mid August, which is a matter of weeks before I am eligible to apply for 10-year ILR.

There seems to be a 28-day 'grace' period that happens immediately after a leave curtailment date passes, whereby the Home Office can accept visa applications, and if said applications are successful do not count this as "breaking" ILR eligibility. My question is this: Were I not able to find another Tier 2 job in time, and were I to overstay beyond my likely early-mid August leave curtailment date and then submit my 10-year ILR application on 01-09-15, would that application be automatically refused, or would it stand a chance of being accepted (being within the 28-day grace period) if I otherwise met every possible requirement?

Thanks for reading. In a pretty tough situation here so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Best Wishes,
TW

Hi,

when did you received the second email? There are one or two people on this forum who received second email but after 2 weeks got their visa. Although its not normal to get the second email.

thanks

Hi all,

I had applied for Ilr on 9th march, received biometric letter and enrolled bio on 27th march. After that I had received another email from the home-office, while noticed that people applied after me receive their visa. I believed that my case is straigt forward, never was refused for extension and have studied in universities (8 years+2 years psw). Can I ask that if receving second email is normal or it is a sign that case will be in home office for some time.

Many thanks

Usman

Hi guys,
Need your help.
I was 4yrs student+2yrs psw+4yrs EEA2.
I received letter to provide more documents about my partner since I received EEA2 to now (more than 10yrs if add students visa and PSW).
It seems some people successfully received ILR without requests this.
Anyway, shall I send the documents which requested same on EEA4 form, the lists of document is huge.
They only give me less than 2 weeks time to send, some documents takes at least 2 weeks received from bank and HMRC.
What shall I do?
Thanks

Provide evidence that she has been a qualified person in the 4 years you are claiming residence rights under EU law.

Don't loose hope


Additional grounds needs to be considered by judge


It's an error by judge

You need to appeal at any cost you need to challenge


Section 120 allows additional grounds to be considered

You need to appeal

Appeal my fri ize=150][/size]

I have permission to appeal to FTT.
Judge base his decision on that I was not 10 at the time of my appeal and I clock 10 by virtue of sec 3c and aditional groumd did not indicate that we present what was not available at the time when appeal was first lodged.
I came from one lawyer to this Chamber. I don't know which one of them that is better.

It is a shame.

Do you mean permission to appeal to the Upper Tribunal.

That is material error of fact , and you need to challenge it, otherwise the Secretary of State could use it against you

Gbe



I asked did you read your ftt decision ?


Dose it has appeal rights or not ???


Can you share by removing your details ???

gbe,
you can change the lawyer then. Just let HO/Tribunal know.

[Zee ali]

@gbe
Bro Ftt judge made an error.

Thing is if u complete 10 years than most solicitors advise to withdraw and apply set lr. U get ilr in 2 to 3 months.

But the route u choose is lengthy, time consuming and expensive.

Other back draw of going on appeal is if judge say in his decision that u have no basis on your case and u apply just to prolong and

to complete 10 years than your game is over.

Now its up to u want u gonna do.

wait another 6 to 7 months may be more in UT or apply set lr and get ILR in 2 months

[gbe]

its error of law if judge dont consider additional grounds


please challenge decision in utt


dont be late or 3c will end if not appealed to utt


they gave u appeal rights ?????

Need some Approvals
Come on guys

Zee ali.
Is it not possible or not allow to vary ground of appeal base on clocking ten when on 3c again?

How many weeks are we looking at, for the whole process of utt?
Is there any consequence for not challenge it?
If you know any case law to do this appeal, sugest.
My lawyer seems not experience enough

No, not break for you as long as you continuously stayed in UK with a valid, it does not matter where your husband was. So dont worry.

Any more views from experts on my circumstance especially CCJ / IVA and ILR LR?

Many thanks..

Dear All,

Thank you for such a great blog.

I have been reading this every now and then to seek guidance.

Time is coming soon, when I'll apply for ILR (LR) in last week of August 2015.

My circumstances are as follows:

1. Came to UK in 2005 - Study Visa - Completed BSc in 2009
2. PSW - 2009 to 2011
3. In 2010, I started a business which went bust and I ended up in a lot of debt (£40k approx). Received a CCJ by one creditor, I owed them around £2,000. Later I made IVA (Individual Voluntary Arrangement) with all creditors including the creditor who obtained CCJ. That's all been fine since then, payments are up to date and IVA status is 'satisfied'. IVA is due to finish in 2016.
4. In 2011, switched from PSW to Tier 4, for a Masters. Successfully completed that.
5. in 2013, started PhD which is due to finish end of 2016. Visa Valid until Feb 2017.
6. 10 Years will reach in August/September 2015.

Kindly advice:
A. How will my case be like? Chances of success?
B. Will CCJ and IVA effect the application in anyway?
C. Should post the application or use the newly started Same Day Premium Service?
D. Should I spend money to hire a lawyer or just apply by myself?

Thanks a million in advance for your expert suggestions.

Kind regards,
Your Friend

Did you read my reply to your post?
