congrats mck2000, just a few questions. Would be very grateful if yli can helpmck2010 wrote:Yes we got there quite early did airport style screenings. Then we went upstairs for ticket (they wouldn't give you a ticket if you are more than 15 mins early for you appointment so we had to wait around) . My appointment was at 10:50, I got my ticket at around 10:45, I got called my number about 10 mins later. They give you a sheet that tells you everything that would happen on the day. The first counter books your document into the system then sends you to do biometric another wait for about 10 mins, after biometrics they ask you if you want to go coffee shop or leave then they'll call you, I chose coffee shop. This is where the real wait begins. I think I was in the coffee shop from 11:10 till my number was called at around 15:00 so about 4 hours. The sheet they give say they aim to reach a decision in 2.5 hours. So they call your number and hand your documents and tell you your card will be in the post in 7-10 days. Then done! You leave. No awkward questions, nice people, smooth day. The only thing is the wait can be nerve racking but i still think it's better than postal where
You can be waiting for months!!

I paid the old fees because I booked before the fee changed so I think it was 2375 previously
Yes printed all pages but only filled in what was applicable to me
Not really it was really straight forward no questions was asked. As long as your case is straight forward it should be fine. It really was a smooth day.
Thank you for the info. My wife and kids are British so will include their documents and sch reports, uni degree etc.mck2010 wrote:6 months bank statements I think 1 year payslips I didn't have last April and march though as I had lost them but it seemed fine, and I took any p60s I could find i think one or two. My documents weren't great but dlr was given to me on family life so I took tenancy agreement with all of us on it, bills, and got friends and family to write support statement but
There aren't no set documents required for dlr to ILR just show how you've built you life in the UK

leonex4t5 wrote:You are able to apply for ILR from 06/06/2017 - end of Oct 2017. So whilst you have been eligible to apply since 06/06/2017 you haven't broken any rules. But you must apply before your leave expires.
Hope that helps.

I didn't use as much as you have listed but what's key is that you can demonstrate the relationship still exists and the intention is for it to continue and I think you will be fine from the perspective of proving relationship.
