Hello Everyone,
Today I’m immensely excited to finally share the good news with you guys.
I was granted ILR, received an approval letter this morning at around 10:30. Couldn’t believe my eyes as I was mentally prepared to wait a minimum of 5 months. In total my processing time was 4months and 10 days roughly . Thank you very much for your unconditional support and I wish to those still anxiously waiting for an answer to keep positive yours will come along soon.
Hi plz share your time line with us

Thank you Kassa, i sure was very lucky, also, I’m sure the wait must be killing you with anxiety at this point but don’t lose hope. I’m sure yours is making its way to you as we speak. Good luck to you.

Congratulations! You need to wait for your BRP card before you can apply for your travel document. It is only question of days now.

I don’t think we can apply the convention travel document. It just for refugee status. If we have ILR, we have to apply for the Certificate of travel “the black one”. Because I have never heard anyone can apply for travel document after having ILR.

Yes you can still apply for the blue convention travel document as you still a refugee although you have ILR until you naturalize. See this link : https://www.gov.uk/apply-home-office-travel-document

Dear Kassa. I see what you mean. However when we have ILR, we are no longer recognise a refugee. All the ILR is the same. And I did say we still can apply for a travel document but not the “blue” one. We only can apply for a “black”
You can read the guide here. The section 5

Hi Datle,
Let's not mislead people in this forum. The section you are referring to is for stateless people only, meaning those who have been refused passport from their own country. As for us we are and will be a refugee until we get British passport, therefore are under UN convention. There is nothing to be shame of about it ( Einstein was a refugee too).That is why when you and me apply for ILR we use the form called "PROTECTION ROUTE" and that is why the HO introduce in 2017 the "SAFE RETURN REVIEW" to make sure we still need that "PROTECTION".
