I got through as well.I spoke to a lady but it wasn't Sheeran. She told they have started working on September applications and I should continue to wait. I applied on 13th September. when I asked what week in September are they working on and how soon will I receive a response she said all she knows is they have started working September applications and they don`t disclose to them the date or week they are working on and I should continue to wait.

It is weird that some of the HO staff don't bother to provide accurate information and want to keep us in dark. Looks like August applications have broken all the HO record of receiving SET LR cases and as a result of that it has pushed all the September onwards applications significantly. Everyday we get new august applicants requesting us to add into tracker and get less news from existing august applicants who are already on the tracker. But things are moving slowly....

Congratulations mate. You can now enjoy festive period freely. I called HO and the lady sheeren confirmed me that they are dealing applications received in the first week of September. I applied on the 10th of September and she confirmed me that it is awaiting to be assigned to caseworker.

Well we should all thank this lady Sheeran who seems to give a little bit extra information yet again Thank Arsal for the update.
Next person calling please do speak to Sheeran
Happy Friday all!!

Yes she doesn't seem to be hesitant when it comes to giving you extra information.She also said my application will be dealt in this month but I replied this is apparently the last full working week of this month and obviously next week you all guys will be disappeared. However, she mentioned that HO will be closed only on 25,26 Dec and 01 Jan and will be opened on rest of the days with reduced staff.

Surprising I got connected within 20sec of my call, I would suggest you to call HO right away and dig out more info from her.

HOME OFFICE FOR CHRISTMAS SAKE SPEED UP YOUR PROCESSING.WE ARE JUST HUMANS.

I called HO yesterday regarding my application and the lady said its not completed yet. Today called again out of my frustration and this time the lady one phone politely replied that the application is "Outstanding"! I've no idea what is that supposed to mean!

Everybody was saying they will either say its being processed or you will hear form us soon but "outstanding" application seems like a new term! The lady confirmed that they have started Sept 2014 application so GL to all Sept ones. I'm really nervous now!
She did mention though it won't be too late now since I have been waiting for a long time now. If they are suppose to reject my application, it will be done quickly now ..... ....

finally another question, is this conviction spent and will it be ignored in obtaining ilr 10 years.

basically i assaulted a officer but was only ordered to pay a fine, this was over 3 years ago. no harm done was just very minor.

will this affect my visa. or should i be thinking of moving back to india.

i disclosed it but the home office have brought it up in previous application... the gaudiness states after two years for fines are my right.

I think this should be OK as long as they only fined you and you had paid on time.
However, you still need to disclose this in your application.

i have a british born child with my ex partner. and i meet other requirements , thanks i can sleep okay tonight then

[Arsal385]

I have a question and timeline to check on this forum :

came in the uk in 2004 aug with a visitors visa, was advised i could change over to a student visa by my college, was not allowed to by the ukba then in the uk. i went back to india, on the 13th dec 2004, came back to the uk on jan 2015 on student visa.

Question one those the first 6 months count towards by ten year route. cause i was carrying out full term college studies i was 17 then.and have letters confirming the that which i sent with my application.

After that i have had a 6 yrs student visa and 2 years psw visa and 2years section 3c .

i sent in my application to the home office in aug 2014, based on the 10 years route and 3 months before my appeal in dec 2014.

will the home office be issuing my visa.

i earn over 75 thousand pounds, and have a british child.

Any continuous legal stay in UK regardless of visa type is accounted towards 10 years rule. Also on SET LR application, for ILR your 10 legal stay in the UK, Life in the UK and English knowledge are the top 3 factors than anything else. However, other factors can also be taken into account. But if you do not fulfil top 3 factors than they will give discretionary leave of 2 years on other factors. Do you have British born child or British child from your husband settlement/ citizenship.

[/quote] I did!! I got through easily too but unfortunately a male picked up he ( didn't quite catch his name too excited to speak to Sheeran ) anyways he said he couldn't pass me through just like that but was nice enough to tell me that my application in progress and they are working on the first week of Spetember applications. He said it looked doubtful that I will receive it before January as they still are clearing the back log of August application.
Logically I think they willt ry to clear the August and first 2 weeks of September this month that is with a big "IF" SO I am now patiently waiting for January 2015!![/quote]

You still got some valuable information mate regardless of that lady. Based on above we should wait till week commencing 05/01/15 and will see how it goes. In the meantime, we should enjoy xmas break and forget our case at least for the next 2 weeks.
