I have query Please reply...

I am appliying for ILR through PEO, just been filling my application form.
I applied for a Teir 1 General extension in August 2012, HO sent a refusal IN JAN 2013,
I appeal against the desicion and was granted Extension in August 2013,
Technically i had no LTR from Aug 2012 to aug 2013 as the application and appeal process took so long.

My question is in the application form SECTION ::D7 (Have you ever stayed in the UK beyond the end of your leave period?):: Do i have to explain in his section or they already Know or just tick NO.

Thanks in advance..

What is child father immigration status? If he also got ILR than u can register your child as a british citien by the virtue of section 3(1) British Nationality Act.

British citizen
This page explains how a child born abroad to British or non-Brtish parents can be registered as a British citizen if it is shown to be in their best interests.

Applications for registration will be considered at our discretion under section 3(1) of the British Nationality Act 1981. When deciding whether to register a child as a British citizen we will consider:

the child's connection with the United Kingdom; and
where the child's future is likely to lie; and
the parents' views; and
the parents' nationality; and
whether the child is of good character; and
the length of time the child has lived in the United Kingdom; and
any compelling circumstances such as a job offer or other opportunity which requires British citizenship.
There are no formal requirements that the child needs to meet. We will consider the individual circumstances of each application. When you make the application you should make sure you provide us with all the information you think is relevant to the child's case."

I applied for ILR (SET LR) on 14/08/15 at POE in Cardiff. They could not make a decision on the day as my passport was at another office(from a previous application). I was told that it would take 3 days to get it sent over.

Has anyone else waited this long for a same day result?

Thanks
hey,

i am in the same boat as u, i was told as well that i would get the outcome in a week but its been 2 weeks, no letter from home office, i feel like i wasted my 400GBP extra :( took a risk though..

My case was straight forward (I think!) - 5 years student visa + 2 years PSW + 3 years Tier 2 General. Total 151 days out of the country. No over-stay or refusal.

The documents I submitted.
1. Passports - 2 (New + Old one with the previous visas)
2. BRP card
3. LIUK cert
4. PhD cert and Transcript
5. Letter from the employer (not essential, but I submitted as additional document)

What made my application process faster is, the onw table I created and submitted with the application form - showing immigration histroy with dates in one columns and scanned image of visa in another column. I made this table as I thought it would be easier for the case worker to see the history.

This forum has been incredibly helpful and the senior members have been always supportive. Thanks a lot guys.

I need to apply for FLR(M) for my wife and MN1 for son and daughter born here. Wife's FLR(M) appointment is on 27th August (I wanted to give enough gap for my BRP card to arrive). I asked the case worker whether my wife will requrie my BRP card for her FLR(M) appointment. He confirmed that she can apply with the approval letter. I was looking to change her appointment - it doesn't seem to be that we can change it online. I know this forum is for SET (LR) only - but my question is relevant for all PEO appointments. Please let me know if anyone have managed to change PEO appointment online or by other means.Many thanks.
HELLO BRO HOPE U DOING WELL
same hare i also get ILR on 18/8/15 and i need to apply for my wife FLR M i also need same halp if u can can u send me message or can u give me your contact no pls on xxxxxxxxxxxxxx sandip and my ID is xxxxxxxxxxxxx thnks and best luck for your wife FLR M .. Thanks

To God be all glory. My SET LR was approved today at Liverpool PEO. The process was quick and fast. It took less than 2 hours and the staffs were polite. My immigration history was: student + Post study + Tier 1 Graduate Entrepreneur.
Document submitted: Life in the UK, degree certificate, previous and current passports, current PBR and two passport photographs.
No question was asked probably because my case was straight forward. Never been refused, all applications are in time and total absence from the UK was 35 days.
I was a silent reader on this forum and I must say that this forum is very helpful and useful. My advice is that make sure you include only require document and don’t include unnecessary document in your application. Simplicity is better! Good luck to those that are yet to apply or waiting for decision.

i have a question regarding my wife 10 yrs long residency application.
she came to uk as student dependent on October 2005. and from that without any gaps she renewed the visa util December 2012. before the tier 1 dependent visa finished December 2012 she applied for FLR(m) visa(November 2012) . Home office refused the visa in June 2013. we appeal and FTT ALLOWED OUR APPEAL UNDER ECHR ARTICLE 8 HUMAN RIGHT( in November 2013). after 2 yrs waiting she received her passport and BPR IN JULY 2015 .now she is on article 8 ECHR VISA.
my question is can she apply for 10 yrs long residency visa in October 2015? or ECHR ARTICLE 8 VISA doesn't count for 10 yrs route.

please help me in this matter. thank you very much all
If all appeals lodged in time and all applications in time (or within 28 days overstay period) than no break in continuity.

Yes time under ECHR Article 8 also counts towards 10 years ILR.

thank you Zee ali.
yes she has no break in continuity. i have one doubt that HO rules say 10 yrs lawful residence in UK with one or more immigration categories. my wife;s visa letter says leave to remain visa granted outside of the immigration rules. will it be make any different??
NO

I didn't received biometric invitation for set lr. the biometric I recorded for my initial application was used to consider my application. it takes about 1 to 2 months for them to get your file from other department.

plus depends how busy they are . It is busiest time of year as most people apply in august , sept see the google spreadsheet.

how do I ask for refund. do I have to write them a letter or is there a number to phone them. when I was sending my application my solicitor said they will refund the initial application fee but when I asked him where is the refund he just ignored me. he already had opened my post.
