Hope this clear the doubts.
I think there is a difference between, Super Premium Service & Same day premium service.
Super Premium Service [£7000 fee] not available for Set (LR) but Same day premium service [£400 fee] is available for Set (LR).

If I get ILR based on 10 year LR.
How about my wife?
Does she get ILR too?
She come as dependent in 2009.

Thanks

Hey, I believe she has to apply either FLR (M) or FLR (FP) if she doesn't meet the requirements of FLR (M) :lol:
Requirements for FLR (M) = £18,600 annual income [You & Wife together] and English test for her.

If she goes for FLR (FP) route, she will have to wait for 10 years before she can apply for her ILR, whereas if she goes for FLR(M) route she can apply for ILR after 5years. However both count towards her lawful stay for her 10 years long residence application.

In addition, I just went to double check in the premium service site. I logged on to the appointment booking service and checked - SET (LR) option is threre now for premium appointment booking. That confirms that you can apply for ILR (10yrs) by using the one day service. Hooray!!!

The revised SET LR form effective from this week clearly states that you can apply through premium service. Read the page 2 of the SET LR form effective from april 2015

"There is a fee of £1500 for this application.
Applications can be made in person at a Premium Service Centre for a same day consideration of your application. There is an additional fee for this service and all fees will be taken when you book an appointment. For more details and to book an appointment please visit http://www.gov.uk/ukvi-premium-service-centres"

This is really a good news for the prospective applicants. I applied in September last year and had to wait for 4 months to get the approval letter.

What a good news from HO for a long time - one day service for ILR 10years!!

I'm applying in August. Never mind the extra few hundred pounds - that is nothing compared to the stress caused by waiting for months and months.

Hi VFF, my congrats!
But can I ask, I thought ILR means without any date limit? So when your BRP is just for like 10 years, what happens after that? Do you just have to renew it?
But they call it indefinite, so why would they put a time frame on it? (just for people who'd later migrate to other countries?)
Thanks.
Yes , just renew it with updated digital photo

Similar to passports (valid only 10 years)

Does anyone know the no to contact HO, for set LR applications please? Thank you
I just got this on the latest guidance: 0800 38 98 28 9
Have seen some people have contacted HO, so thought to double check with them before waste time trying to get through to them!
I need to ask if I can switch from post application to premium now. It'd mostly be a no I know, but I better check anyway :(

Please help
Yes you can apply 28 days before completing 10 years, 28 days is buffer period so you do not need to worry about.
About your child born in UK, you can apply for them to register as british citizen using Form MN1, just search for MN1 form and guidance, all details are available there, on how to apply, what evidence require etc. read those notes and application first.
hope it helps

Yes they changed details for same day service on their website too, which says you can apply for same day for ilr (all i think). Just need to pay £400 at the time of booking.
if you still have to send an application, fill new form etc... then yes you should be able to use the service. But if application is already with HO then you can not change ?[/quote]

So is it true that you have to wait at least a year before you can apply to become a citizen even after 10 years long residence? Is this what they mean by naturalisation?
