I am a silent follower of this forum which helped me a lot. Thanks for everyone here. My Application time lines are

Sent:05/10/11
Ack Date:06/10/11
ILR Stamp Date: 12/01/12
Received: 17/01/12

Student (8yrs)+PSW 2yrs. Thought no gaps at first, but later found out that a post strike happened during one of my visa extension MAY cause gap. Thus On 17/10/11 I sent additional information about the post strike and a letter from the international student adviser who helped me with that visa extension. Didn't apply for SAR. So not sure about the usefulness of the information I sent. I wish everyone who is still waiting for the visa hear good news soon.

I've been silently following this great forum for a few months and got my ILR back yesterday so I decided to share my experience.

My 10 years are made up of a 2 year Student visa (A-Level) + 4 year Student visa (Masters) + 1 year IGS visa (International Graduate Scheme) + 3.5 year Student visa (PhD)

application posted: 1.11.2011
ILR stamped date: 5.1.2012 in Liverpool
passport received: 11.1.2012

Hope this helps and good luck to everyone here....

HI everybody i got my passport with ILR TODAY

Application sent 30th Sept
Received by H.O 5th Oct
Payment taken 7th Oct
Ack letter dated 5th Oct
Ilr stamped 16th Dec
passport received 21th Dec

I have been a silent reader. I had a Gap of 2 months in 2003 my application was considered invalid as was asked to produce results I reapplied as soon as i received my results,
my application was validated after 2 months. therefore i assume its a gap of 2 months.
my case was represented my solicitor who seemed to have understood my case very well.
I wish all people to get their passport with ilr asap.

Congrats to all who got it, I have just finished week 9. Still waiting, I suppose they are going to close for XMAS now, so will probably get an answer after new year. Oh well the wait goes on.
