[fielddrive]

congrats to everyone who's received their ILRs...

i have a weird feeling my application timeline will become an example of how long it can take to decide.. i really dont want that.

anyway August '14 is now the busiest month ever recorded on the tracker... 64 people and only 40% decided so far as we approach the end of the month

You will get it by friday ..... we will hit for party my prediction wont go wrong hahahhahahha ... I even have a date for my application 21dec

I wish... but I'm going to stay a little bit skeptic... party is on anywa we can take @F.khan along!!

More approvals expected.

Have you checked the Royal mail

Hi maddysheffield,
Yes i checked it in the afternoon but nothing yet.

hello users, please advice.
i have reached 10 years so am to apply but i realised my passport expired on 5/june/ 2014. i sent it to my country embassy on 3/ september/2014 for renewal. it came on 12/ november/2014 with current one. the problem is the gap between 5/june/2014 when it expired and 10/ november/2014 ,when it was issued and came with the new one. for this period i can only provide a few medical documents and a bank statement. i cant provide more documents other than life in uk test notification pass and english test proof.

i would like to know wether providing passports alone, english doc, liuk doc are enough?
but there is this statement on the form that states that you should provide a list of documents below for periods that you cant provide a passport and i believe the period they are talking about in my case is between expirely of old passport and issue of new one. i only have 2 categolies of documents to cover this short period which are bank statement and medical docs. are these documents enough?
or does it matter. i have 5 vizas in old passport. the rest has been biometrics which i have been sending bck to ho for each next visa renewal. i also lost my last bio residence permit but i informed police and made application for replacement. i came in uk on 05/09/2004. status all student visas, applied on time.
sorry for using this on reply.

Hello salle45,
You are ok. SET (LR) requirements does not require you to proof gaps in your own country passport renewal. They worry about your gaps in your visa renwals if you have any.As far as I know the requirements for SET LR are:
1) Photocopy of all your passports (bio pages and stamped pages if have travelled)
2)All Original passports bearing your visas for the period of 10 years
3) Original life in the UK test certificate
4) Original English Language certificate (UK BSc/MSc degree certificate will be accepted)
5) Passport photos
6) Correctly filled SET (LR) application form (strongly advised to always check for the latest version of the form before submission)
7) Any existing BRP should also be included.
Hope I have not missed out on any required documents.
Thats all you need bro. You do not need to submit any bank statements etc.

YOU MISSED THE MAJOR THING PAYMENT OF £1093

Hello Arsal385,
Point of correction mate, i did not miss it, as this is not a requirement to be met. It is the application fee and this is clearly stated on page 4 (section-1) in the form.

[maddysheffield]

@ Congrats ABCD 3rd wicket down for the day more 2 to go

[fepute]

I hope this is the right topic to ask my question.
I intend to apply for my 10 years long resident SET(LR) application ,but I have a 6 day gap between a visa application and also another gap of 31 days between my 2 passports. I just want to make sure that these don't break my 10 years long residency.

I also have 2 convictions 1.)driving with the wrong license in 2006( Went to court and fined)
2.) No car insurance in 2008( out of court fine and 6 points on license).

Visa dates are as follows:-
Student Visa 17/09/14 to 31/10/03 Issued at arrival
UK Ancestry visa 05/12/03 to 02/12/07 Application raised 06/11/03 according to SAR.
UK Ancestry visa 13/11/07 to 12/11/12 In Time Application.
10 Year Long Residence 2 Year leave to remain 24/01/14 to 24/01/16 In Time App. & BRP issued.

Is there anything I should worry about. Thanks

Edit, Student visa from 17/09/02 and not 2014

Someone of you who has good software knowledge simply convert google drive timeline into more secured format and place password and create backup. The more you teach the people who disturb this tracker the more they will behave worst perhaps due to having genetic diseases in doing so.

[Spatacus]

Hi Everyone

I've been a silent reader on this forum since August and found it really helpful - thanks.
By God's grace I've received my approval letter today.

My details are:

Application sent: 21 August 2014
Acknow received: 29 August
Bio received: 20 September
Bio enrolled: 20 September
Approval date: 24 November
Documents received: 26 November
BRP: waiting

10 years = 6yrs student + 2yrs PSW + 2yrs Tier 2

I believe it was a straightforward case (no gap, no appeal, no CCJ).
Thanks once again and God richly bless all members who dedicate their time to help others on this forum and good luck to everyone still waiting.

Cheers.
AxleK

Congratulations bro. At least we have a better news since this week as per date of submission though!!
Enjoy your freedom.

@ its annoying when someone messes it up guys please be assured some moderators have the data saved and can manage ... But advise to all ACT LIKE ADULTS

@Rhyme2k we need to give access to everyone to have a look and also I have noticed many applicants updating time line ( as in my previous post I mentioned they usually update Tracker and not leave a single message on forum .... so it needs to be accessible for everyone

Hi Maddysheffield,

I understand your point but everyone who uses a FREE service ought to remember that if this goes , they will come a point that everyone will loose interest to back it up every time some idiot of person screws up ( it happens 2 to 3 times per week these days).

Bearing in the mind everyone is sharing their knowledge and time free of cost. I think it is up to all of us to use it wisely if not many others will loose such a great piece of information. (free and genuinely great is not the words you hear together these days)

You can see from this board only Set LR tracker only has been going on regularly unlike SET O or SET M.

So please everyone it is in our best interest to keep this going without these problems. Simply ask someone to do it if you are not competent enough to use it.

I rest my case!!
