Just posting the same post twice won't help I guess.

Provide your complete immigration history in the UK. Also, on what basis you applied ILR ? etc

Likely an error in posting twice or pure desperation due to their DV circumstances.

The OP has stated their immigration history clearly!

Applications under DV can take a while. Proof of domestic violence doesn't have to be physical evidence and the fact that the police found you a place of refuge and the abuse has been reported to your GP, should be sufficient.

Neither does domestic violence have to be purely physical. It can also be emotional/psychological abuse.

I came here by spouse visa.my ex husband was British citizen.i used to do all of their household chores.i wasn't allowed eat properly.He also used to hit me with things.His mom was same. I reported all of the things they did with me.but I didn't take any photographs or video because my husband always checked my mobile leptop.

It looks hopeful. Did you submit a reports with your application from the Police, GP and the women's refuge?

Roja1 · Post by **Roja1** » Sun Dec 02, 2018 11:23 pm

Yes I submitted report from gp, refuge and one of my colleague. and gave the incidence number and contact number of police because my police officer said she will directly talk with home office because it's confidential.its been 3 and half months..im really stressed.

Do you think if it's taking long so it's gonna be positive.

And there was some sexual issues as well.i told everything to the police.she's still investigating.1 month before she called me and said she's taking interview of my ex-husband and his mom. I was in a horrible situation.i reported to the police from my work with the help of the colleagues.i left everything in their house.next day police took some clothes from that house.police told me to change the sim.i did it..

You've taken all the right steps to take control of your life again. With the evidence you've submitted I believe you stand a good chance with your application.

If you're finding it difficult to cope while you're waiting for the decision, contact the charity Southall Black Sisters who offer support for women in your situation. A listening ear and knowing that you're not alone can make a world of difference.

I wish you the best and hope your ILR is granted as soon as possible.
Did you try to write a letter to home office to expedite your case or involving the local MP might help in your particular case?

If course she can. However ILR DV cases generally take months to be processed.

Any update? I’m planning to apply for this as I’m in the same situation sans physical abuse. My husband and his family are emotionally abusing me. I do household chores but still not satisfied. My husband is addicted to porn and he spends so much money. He always threatens me to send me back to my country or kick me out of their house if I don’t obey him. I’m currently in my extension of spouse visa.We have a 1 year old baby and I can’t just leave her with them. By the way they’re Bengali also and I’m from Philippines

Roja1 · Post by **Roja1** » Wed Dec 12, 2018 11:54 pm

No I didn't heard anything from home office yet.anyways if you have a baby so you don't need to worry about anything.if they reject you can apply on parent route..

Roja1 · Post by **Roja1** » Sun Dec 16, 2018 9:48 pm

Hi everyone..it's been 4 months I didn't hear anything from home office.do you think if it is taking long so the reply would be positive.can you share your experiences please

Roja1 · Post by **Roja1** » Tue Dec 18, 2018 11:31 pm

Nobody reply anything..

Does anyone have any idea that if it is taking so long to decide about ILR because of domestic violence then it's gonna be positive or negative? because it's been 4 months

Impossible for anyone to know. These applications are not straightforward and take time. Nothing you can do but wait to hear back from HO.
