Thank you ''Mrchaany''.

But how does this work, if i've lost 3c leave since appeal rights exhausted during 2015??

I need clarification on this matter that within the 28 days of 3C leave expiry and appeal rights exhausted, if someone apply for FLR (FP) and during the process of decision of his/her valid application completes 10 years long residency then what is legal explanation in this case?

I've read out HO guidance but could not find about relevant description in this scenario.

Thank you

It would be useful and beneficial to you if you stuck to your own topic (link below)you already have rather than duplicating your questions in this topic, given that your case is complex.

Hello All,
Just want to give some update on my case. It's been almost 7 months since applying for Set (LR). I have contacted UKVI today (Contact Number 03001232241) and explained the situation as I need to travel as part of my Job. HR also gonna send a letter to home office behalf of me. So, at the end of the telephone conversation (After waiting almost 30 mins), they have given me a call reference number and also informed that Home office will contact me within 5 working days.

PS : If you want to know about my situation, please follow the previous post kindly.

Thank you.

Hi sunnysunny1994,

I personally think that you should take things easy with yourself as it's very much obvious that you are stressed out over this tax issue. Why not provide the information required of you and hope for the best and possible appeal right in worst case scenario. Take it easy as depression is real.

If you withdraw your ILR application and your visa has already expired, then you have no legal status and cannot work.

Thanks, how many days HO will post my documents. Will they send any confirmation. What r chances if i apply again from back home for tier 2? Kindly reply.

Please ask your Tier 2 questions in the Tier 2 sub forum. It is not appropriate to ask such questions in this Set(LR) topic.

If your visa has already expired, HO will likely NOT send your documents but give them to you at the airport once you confirm with them the date you are leaving.

Hi

I have a couple of questions around the most recent SET(ILR) form (Version 4, 2017).

1. "DUTY TO STATE ALL REASONS TO REMAIN IN THE UNITED KINGDOM"..........
All your reasons or grounds for wishing to stay in the United Kingdom must be
stated in this application. This requirement is being given under section 120 of
the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002. If you do not tell us now of any
reasons or grounds for remaining in the United Kingdom and you tell us later without
good reason, you will lose any right of appeal you may have otherwise qualified for if
we refuse your claim. You can use the box at the end of section 3.2.

There is no space at the end of section 3.2 at all!! So where should I put in my reasons to stay in the UK

2. For the reasons to remain in the UK, are the HO looking for any specific terminology....I will be stating spouse working here, own house (mortgage), friends etc. Is there anything else that needs to be stated?

I would be providing all the passports etc so do I still need to provide the bank statements?

Many thanks

Hi,
Yes you can state those reason which you have mentioned. You don't need to submit bank statement as LR route does not require it. However, I will advise you to make it handy should you attend premium service.

Checking on website is total waste of time. So what's your immigration history ? I have applied Set LR 10 years as well but I was on Tier 1 General before. What's your immigration history ? Were you on Tier 2 before applying Set LR ?

NO I had my application with home office for 8 years and then ho give me dl first I cam on vist visa 2006 and b4 visa expir I applied for further leve to remain on out side rule and home office took 8 year to decide my application and after 8 year ho office gave me dl for 30 months and now I have bin in uk for 11 year 3 months and I applied on set lr also have one British child so hope I wil get my ilr aproove soon

Hi Folks!

Above is my Set (LR) journey, I waited about 8 months now but application still in progress, did anyone receive any correspondence after submitting the Tax Questionnaire Form, SA302's and Tax Year Overview.
Please state your entire journey in both cases (Visa Granted or Refused) so we know about the process time.

Hi Folks

I have found a very good link where you could check your visa application status by entering your UKVI Case number which is found on your Biometric Letter;

https://www.gov.uk/contact-ukvi-inside- ... ion-status

Please use it and update me what your status says;

Mine says "Awaiting a decision"

Friends please share your experiences, tips, suggestions and advice so the community could take advantage of your valuable experience.

Hi Yash,

I have been waiting for the last 10 months. Secondly, that online checking service is total waste of time. I have seen 4 or 5 good results on this immigration board site but all of them they had to wait around 12 to 13 months. So hopefully we will get a decision in next couple of months. Hope for the best. Thanks

Hi Chief and all friends

Its nice you respond to my query, I have two other friends who applied for Set (LR) who had done amendments and they receive Tax Questionnaire and then they receive their visa granted after 4 months of submitting this Tax Questionnaire.

Do you know any such cases after Tax Questionnaire submission.

It would be helpful if you actually listed all your immigration history and visas with exact dates of visa start and expiry and why you have period(s) of overstay and all dates relevant to appeals etc. Otherwise it is impossible for anyone to advise you if you qualify for ILR based on long residence.

Hi Yash,

In the last couple of weeks I have seen two cases on this immigration board forum both of them they had amendments but they amended tax well before applying visa and corrected it. Both of them got visa one of them had to go for an interview as well as had to fill questionnaire. All the 4 or 5 cases with positive outcome had to fill questionnaire. I think getting any sort of result after sending questionnaire minimum waiting time is around 3 months.
I didn't have any amendments but still have been waiting for the last 10 months. I filled and sent the questionnaire around one month ago. Thanks

Hi CR008


I wanted to know that myself and my family has been put on 10year route on my daughter basis who is under 18 and lived here in UK for past 9 years and 10 months when our visa was issued on family life basis, on 10 year route and on that basis we have been given 30 months visa as just after this visa was issued after 2months we had completed our 10 year legal residency but our solicitor told us that because you have been putted on 10 year route now you have to extend your visa 4 times until you finish your ten years is this true?

As from your reply to this post makes me understand that only you need to complete 10 years legaly to apply for ILR and this 30 month visa was issued to us just because we had not completed our 10 years otherwise we were eligible for ILR? Kindly correct me if I'm wrong.

I will really appreciate if someone can advice on this.

I think you've been wrongly advised by your solicitor. I was in a similar situation, have been a dependant on my husband until we applied for FP and shortly (0ne month) after we were granted my husband who had been here for 10 years before our FP application was finally decided applied for his ILR and was granted same with my daughter few months after my husband application and she was also granted.

I don't know where the said solicitor got his information from, but he has advised you wrongly. You don't have to be 10 years on that route before you can apply for ILR and you will be able to add the time you have spend on the 2.5 years leave to your previous legal leave to qualify for ILR under long residence.
