If you don't mind me asking what was DLR granted for, was it for private life or family life. DLR is normally granted outside the immigration rules and normally extensions and when applying for ILR, circumstances prevailing at the time of the first grant must still be the same for further grants or for ILR.

this is my understanding of what documents maybe required.

NHS Letters
Council Tax Letters
Utility bills / Correspondences (gas, electricity, landline)
Any local council or government letters / correspondences (award letters etc)
Credit Card statements (not online)
Bank statements (not online)
Letters of support
Employer Letters
Wage Slips
Covering letters ( for example, Covering letter for why you are applying for ILR)

Proof of joint address should cover the full qualifying period in the form of 6 pieces of correspondence/bills etc if in joint names or 12 examples if in single names (6 each). These should be from at least 3 difference sources and spread as evenly as possible throughout the 3 year period. 1 (or 2 if in singles names) every 4-5 months is a general guideline.

All documents should be originals and not be printed online ones as they wont be accepted. Also, when showing wage slips (if it applies to you) make sure bank statements are also corresponding with it.

hope this helps...

What's the home office fee.

And likely how many month/weeks for the processing, just an idea. Should you know.

Please tell me. Lastly the above started documents

Hi,

At the moment the fees are for indefinite-leave-to-remain application £2297, if you are using SET(O) form to apply, then you may use the PSC service which is a one day service centre and if your case is not complicated you can get a same day decision.

That would be another £490 on top of the ILR fee and you can book online and pay online, remember though, if going for the PSC service you can book upto 42 days in advance BUT make sure you book within 28 days of qualifying period of 6 years of DL.

Again the PSC decision is all dependant on evidence and how complicated your case/immigration history is not something anyone can tell you.

It varies in afraid.

Yes, remember to complete form SET(O). If anything comes to mind I will post it here. Good luck and please let us know of your outcome whenever you apply.

I would also mention in regards to the fee's that they increase every year in April, bear that in mind if applying after that month, always use the latest form and the correct fee at the time when making an application for leave to remain as it will be returned invalid (giving you a 14 day grace period) to re-apply using the up to date form and fee.

Link to form: 30 October 2017
Updated form

You need to make a SET O form not DL form , otherwise not accepted by premium service , if you apply through the post you should make a DL form .ilr Fee is £2297
Premium service :£590

Was it for the full 3 year period or like 6 months of documentation?

Hi,

Did they refuse him or invalidate his application?

If refused, most likely he will have lost his fee's and will have 14 days or because it was premium service, until expiry of his current Leave to resubmit the application.

If invalidated, then he would only need to submit the right form again, without losing the fee's, and possibly rebook his appointment or send it in by postal if a PSC booking date isn't available.

If you could clarify please.
