Hi everyone, status update. Called HO for application update.. Told my family has been grant PR.we were given on Thursday. Document has been sent out :D :D :) :D :) :D . Best xmas gift ever..

Application timing

May 2010: Application sent
June: Application rejected and rejected for missing information.. Never got form. Application held at Royal Mail for 1 month
July: RM sends application back to HO
July: COA received
Nov: told by HO application is being considered
Dec: HO advised application in final stage
Toiday; Ho advised PR granted on thursday and passport sent out back to me.
Counting from July when they got appication returned back by royal mail to now: 4months 1week.
From my point of view, i believe if you re told "Application in final stage" it means you've been sucessful and you passport needs to be stamped.
Best xmas gift. I give all glory, honour and praise to the most high God, whom all things are possible through. good luck everyone.

Hello all, I'm in same dilema with the HO, really hoping they process eea 4 application within 5/6 mths. Applied 04/ 08/10. Received COA 24/08/10. I have been following up this discussion board and from what I read I believe they are dealing with july applications, so hopefully by the end of this mth or next mth I will receive some good news. I'm this bothered because this is actually my second application, the first was in 2008, went for 2 appeals this year and was advised to reapply with all the needed documents instead of going for the 3rd appeal since the court will not consider fresh evidence. Was happy when I got a COA as it shows documents are complete this time . My company has been patient with me since 2008 but it seems they are running out of patience, hence I need my PR so I do not loss my good job. Do anyone here know what I can do to help fasten this process?

Hi, so sorry to hear u've had to go for 2 appeals. Have u tried contacting them for an update? I bored them with constant phone calls. :D :D .
Also, put application forward before God and ask for his divine favour, cos whoever he favours no one can disfavour as he is the ultimate caseworker. He did mine and definately can do yours. I am very sure you'll hear good news soon

Hi Folks


Just an update regarding my application without Solicitor


Applied for EEA4, I have got my documents back with the PR on Saturday 11/12/2010

Application for EEA4 and EEA3: 20/07/2010.
COA Received on: ../ 08/2010.
Called home office they said it’s on the Final Stage: 06/12/2010
Checked post office system, dispatched on the 07/12/2010
Collected my documents on Saturday 11/12/2010
The residence was granted and stamped on the 19/11/2010.

So the duration to get the residence was 3 months and 29 days, very good.

UKBA are dealing faster these days, I hope that the duration will be more faster in the future.

Next step is BC in April


For those who are still waiting:

I wish you all to get your documents with a positive response very soon before New Year.

Guys just keep chasing and never give –up.

Good luck to you all

Hi
Mine appllied 20th of july, maybe yours will be very soon, but I've always managed to get in touch with the HO just try to call early in the morning between 9AM to 10:30 option 1 and then after option 2 and you'll be on the queue for sure you'll get someone to answer your call.

all the best

Hi

yes you can use your tenancy agreement, better add the council tax bills if not availble, yours and your partner's banks statements even if is not joint account it does show the address's of the two of you that you are residing together.
good luck

@ rotten_tomatoe I applied on 9 August 2010,received COA after two weeks, called just two times all this period , but only today I managed to get information.

@ noble72uk Thank you very much for your good words, in such situations it helps a lot. I understand that there will be some delays due to the festive period, but I hope for the best.
