Do you know approximately how long it takes the home office to make a decision once they start to look at applications.

Also Is it 6 months from MId July 2013 or six months from application date?


I applied for ilr 10 years (set LR)

Applied on 25 July 2013
Bio done on 5 August 2013

Still awaiting decision.

Hi Guys,

I got My ILR at the end of September came to UK April 2003 visa was ending January 2013 I was short of about 3 months so I applied Tier 1 Entrepreneur visa and then varied my application to ILR. My Solicitor send request for Refund to UKBA because I paid full fee for both applications Today I got my Refund cheque which is £2550.00.
Who ever varied any application to ILR request for Refund.
Good luck for people waiting.
