I have been wondering since my application is in the 19-22.5 category will the decisions be made differently to other ones . I have been dealing through a solicitor and he according to him , I used contact the HO because they will even take longer, best thing is to just wait and be patient . Is that true or he is just after money. Here is my timeline:

Application sent: 27/08/2014

Just by inquiring about the case would not delay. You better give them a call tomorrow and check what's going on with your application.

For all those who know that their application has been posted by HO :-) good luck


Special Delivery Guaranteed™ items are first tracked when they have reached our mail centre. This may be late in the evening on the day the item was sent

Please be aware that the Post man comes and collects the Post from Home office and then goes to collect from other places and then ...goes back to the Royal mail office and then enters them on the system so guys :-)

It will be late evening when the status gets updated ......I can understand how anxious we will be but still can't make SNAIL( royal mail) run like rabbit ( our thoughts) ;-)

I need some help and information from experience and senior people about varying the application

I currently applied for ILR under long residence i.e. SET(LR) and no decision has been made. Varying application is my plan B in case if HO could not make any decision by end of February.
Note: I submitted some supporting docs 12xPayslips, 5xP60 ,last 5 months bank statement, KOL test and master degree along with SET(LR) application which I am still waiting for decision from HO.

My current status is Tier 1 General and expiring in March 2015.
My questions are:

Q1. What is the process to varying the application and apply for ILR under Tier 1 general route?

Q2. ILR under tier 1 general route required supporting documents like payslips, p60 and degree , KOL test which I already submitted with my outstanding SET(LR) application so what is the way to get this document and attached it with new varying application ?
@peace,mate when did u apply for your set(lr) as their processing time is within six months time.i will advise you to wait for the decision because in this particular category the documentation is very limited but if you wanna vary your application for indefinite leave to remain on the basis of tier 1 then keep in mind the financial requirement/proofs for the back years.

SHAHFURQAN
I applied 1st sept 2014 and I still want the answers for Q1 , Q2
@peace,yea that is absolutely brilliant.if your case is straight forward and not complexed then it must not take long though they tell you within six months but would it not be nice to give HO ring on wednesday and ask them about the progress on your application,do not forget to ask them whether has it been allocated to any case worker or not.

@Meeeeeeeeeeeeeee,congratulations to you as well dear as by the blessing of Almighty you seems to be not far away to get your approval,yes the HO probably uses 2nd class signed for and check the RM status after 1830 and that is the time they usually change it but anyhow in what ever condition you should have received it by the 14-01-15(wednesday) In Sha Allah,so chill and praise the Lord.

Apologies for posting this query twice urgent reply needed.

Dear forum members,
Does a wife of ILR on 10 years basis have restrictions on her visa when her FLRM is approved by home office?
This question is targeted to those whose wifes have already obtained FLRM dependent visa after their husband obtained ILR ( settlement) based on SET ( LR ) application
Thank you in advance as you reply/respond to my query.

When HO says " You application has not been completed but you should hear from us very shortly" is that "soon"?
@syannelle,

did you ask the advisor whether you application has been assigned to any case worker yet or not and if they have replied in yes,then yes it means it will going to be decide soon or you will hear something from them shortly,but even if you did not ask them about your case progress,they do not normally reply in that way so it means it could be on the edge of decision,hope for the best.
