You're welcome vien. I think it is only fair that ppl who have read this forum share their info back, if they haven't already, to try and help others.

Thanks sagor. I've checked on the royal mail system and they still have a record of the tracking number that I used to send my application to UKBA, maybe you did not record yours correctly. I think you will get yours soon since my passports were only posted about 7 days after the ILR was granted.

Thanks cr7 for wishing. They had record for the track number that I used to send my application . I took print screen that time . But only recently it's not showing record. Anyway I have been checkin every now and then

I have been checking royal mail tracking number everyday .. and just recently i have checked my old track number ( the one i used to applied for ilr )its not even on the system. so not sure if royal mail track service is working or not . so can not rely on this.. i guess i just wait patiently

Hi Sagor,

I would suggest that you wait passports are coming between 11-12 weeks. the home office usually asks you not to contact them before 10 weeks have passed. I hope you get your passports soon.

I am sure your passport will be back in the next week or so

Good Morning

Happy to share you the news that my ILR application is successful and below is the detailed info.

Posted on 28/09/11
Reached Payment Section 29/09/11
Acknowledgement on 03/10/11
Passport stamped on 22/11/11
Passport received 28/11/11(sent to my OLD address even though mentioned in covering letter to send work address.

I have gap in visa stamps once for 10 days in 2005 and again 25 days , But I must tell you that I made the applications on both occasions in time and I forgot to mention that in the covering letter and I sent last week(Thursday) another letter to highlight these gaps and reasons behind but decision was already made and passport stamped by the time letter reached.

I haven't enclosed SAS or MP letter or Reply Envelope.
I have enclosed 6 months pay slips, bank statements and Employer letter along with P60.

I believe as long as we make the application in time or even with 10days gap just once the application will be successful and I spoke to my lawyer
HO rep and they did if the passport is lying with HO technically the applicant is under 'deemed leave' and that will not be considered as gap even though there is a gap in the visa stampings.

So I request every awaiting applicant just don't rely on the visa stampings
but HO might have got their own records and interpretations for rules in place.

Finally even if everything in place unless GOD's will is with you things could go wrong.

Please let me know if you any pending applicants got any queries I am happy to support within my available info and resources.

GOOD LUCK to all the waiting applicants and a BIG thank you for the MODERATORS of this forum specially 'Mr. Mehta, Vein. AK'

Many thanks again for the support and useful info from this forum.

Maruti

I am starting to worry now .. Just stepped into 11th week ...

raja1976 · Post by **raja1976** » Mon Nov 28, 2011 7:58 pm

hi vanilla82

dont worry, normally time starts from acknow letter. if your case is straight forward which it seems then you dont have to worry. it can take longer than normal (as it happened in my case) but they cant reject.

best of luck

vanilla82 · Post by **vanilla82** » Mon Nov 28, 2011 7:23 pm

Congrats to ah_kassem and Raja and everyone else who received their ILR.

My 8th week commence today and I'm somewhat nervous.

I know it's only week 8 but, people did receive their passports back this early too right?

I just want to know already....

Btw, in case of refusal, is there a right of appeal?

Good week everyone
