dear guru , senior members and all other members
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??

HI can any body tell me where i need to put my query for my dependents, in which topic or shall i ask my questions here?

[HoneyB123]

Hi All

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

[goodmann]

big congratulations to those who just got their ilr approved- i am happy for you.
pls i like to know which peo you attended and whether you had self-employed tax issue anxiety. i am wondering if some PEOs are less curious. were your tax matters in perfect order? did you have to do tax re-calculations?
so concerned bcos i've got a tax issue i'm sorting out.

[goodmann]

Hi Guys ,
By the grace of GOD I got my SET LR today , I was on student, psw, tier1 general.

The whole process took an hour , not even single question was asked.

Documents I submitted
Passport , BRP , LIUK , English qualification.
Employer letter ( it was optional but I did)

Advice to other keep it simple submit only required documents and if you don't have any break you will get it.

Let me know if you guy have any questions

Funny thing I have applied for SAR in feb but I never got it , I have already sent them 3-4 reminders and got 2 letter saying it's in queue and I have seen people on form they applied after me and got it and mine is still in queue never mind don't need it anymore.

Last but not least this from is really great source of information , members on this from are very nice , polite , helpful.

keep posting and helping others to make this form alive.

Good luck all who are due to apply or already applied.

Cheers

Thanks for sharing your good news as it is source of encouragement and support to see successful applications. Coukd you please share at which PEO you submitted your application and did you included any covering letter.
Moreover, have u given copies of each document as stated in set (LR) guideline. and it would be great if you share what is the procudure in PEO centre to submit your application. Thanks

Hi Dear,
I went to Belfast Peo ,yes i have given photocopies of all the submitted document.
My appointment was at 9 am , first they do security check it's same as airport security check.
After that alady called me to a counter and asked me give her all the documents and she took documents and issued me a
Token number.
Later they called for biomatrix , after 20-30 mins of bio again they called me to counter and gave me good news and handover the document and ask me to verify the details , also she asked me to complete the feedback from, it was optional but i did it.
Belfast PEO is very small and it was not busy i was alone there.

Thanks
