Hi Mako,

Thanks for the information and good to see you are still viewing the forum.

Could you please let us know if you sent any additional documents with your application? or did you just send the minimum required documents i.e. Passport/s, Life in the UK Test and Photos?

Thanks
Hi BigSam
I sent my passports, LIUK test, photos and 4 months salary slips. Everything was returned to me except for the photos (and the application form of course). I also enclosed a Special Delivery envelope which was used to return my documents. I had checked at about 4.30pm and my Special Delivery tracking number was not recognised, but when my wife checked again at about 9pm it was recognised...meaning they don't despatch passports until sometime after 4.30pm. So anyone who's tracking their return Special Delivery number should check sometime at night.
Hi Mako,

Thank you very much for the swift response and the valuable information, I check the reference number of my prepaid envelop every day, I will ensure I always check after 7pm from now on then.

One more question please, did you send photocopies of your passports as well? it appears that some people are getting the photocopies back, and others not sent copies with their applications in the first place?

Thanks again for sharing your experience; I trust you know what it feels like. You have been there and done that init :wink:
No, I did not provide any photocopies at all. Glad to help :wink:
Thanks a lot Mako, this information is very helpful.

I wish you the best of luck on your journey now and thank you again for sharing your experience. You are the man :D
I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it...

Re: ILR on the basis of 10yrs residence waiting

Post by neerukonda9 » Tue Nov 01, 2011 9:14 am

Hi Kassem

Can you be able to provide me the approx waiting time for ILR processing please. I applied on 28th September, 2 days after I got my payment acknowledgement and since then no news.

I sent my flight booking( booked well before applying) along with application. does it make any impact on the processing.

Please try to share your experience.

Many thanks
Maruti

Why after 3 months? I can't remember anything mentioned about waiting 3 months before contacting HO on acknowledgement letter.
I think the 3 months refers to the 14 weeks waiting before contacting them. However, this is usless now as the message on the UKBA phone does not allow you to speak to anyone.

Guys we have to sit tight I guess. it is only the start of the week and by looking at the past 2 months no one recieved his passport on a monday. So let us wait and see. the past 2 weeks were realy good as in each one of them 6 passports where returned with ILR


Good luck

Hi qaziji,

Did your lawyer specifically say that he can contact them after three months? I tried ringing this morning and there was no way of even speaking to anybody. There was an audio message that simply stated that no progress updates are available to any application that has been pending for under six months, and then the call is automatically ended. So even if ones application has been pending for more than six months, there was still no way of speaking to anyone. Unless there is a seperate phone number to use? :?
I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it...

Congrats to all who got the passports. I am waiting patiently with fingers crossed. I suppose there will less cases processed as we get close to XMAS times as people go on holidays etc. Looking at previous history, if it takes 10 weeks to process application then I fall right in the middle on XMAS holidays. Hopefully I will get the passport back this year :)

Lets hope we will not be pushed for sending not required docs.
Let us hope so, I woke up feeling optimistic this morning.

It will be a fantastic week if everyone who applied in August and before, get their passports back this week :)
I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it...

there is no finance requirment need to submit with Set o form on the basis on 10 years long residence.All Passports and ID card(if u been given) Life in the UK test and 2Pictures and photocopies, these are the basic and only requirments with application for 10years long residence.

GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE .
Hi abdulmannan,

Thanks for the info, it is also my understanding of the matter that there is not requirement to submit financial documents. We are trying to analyse the processing pattern to see whether submitting such documents only delays the process or if this is not related.

Thank you for your wishes and I pray that we have as many passports returned this week as possible.

All the best for the future mate
