Uploading the signed copy of consent form will be more than enough as I recall Sopra Steria employee told me that you are not obliged to submit that form with your application, however this clearly mentioned in the ILR application guidelines that you should send it.

And as long as you mentioned your previous immigration issues you should also be safe.

Thanks for the response...true, consent form is mentioned as one of the mandatory form to be. Submitted with the application....so do you think sopra steria will scan it and upload for me if I ask them to(I ve chosen that service)??

They would do it for you but I think they going to charge you fees for that, if you haven’t done it in first place(uploading) before bio appointment.

Hi guys,
I had applied for my ILR - SET (P) in beginning of May 2019 and I'm still waiting for ILR.

Applied for ILR Route : SET(P)
Date application sent : 02-05-2019
Document received by HO : Online
Ack letter received (if applicable) : Email received on 03-05-2019
Biometric Letter received : Email received on 05-05-2019
Date Biometrics Enrolled : 23-05-2019
Payment Debited : NA
Approval/Refusal Received : Still waiting
BRP Card Received : Still waiting

Today 6 months have been completed, no update received yet. I've contacted HO over the phone, the person at call centre said there is no service standard for SET (P) applications however I should have received within SIX months. They've asked me to write a letter to UKVI asking for update. So.......... I'm going to write a letter now.

Update:
I was just about to write a letter today but received letter from HO, saying they aim to process all applications within 6 months but my application has caused some complexity and that they'll process it within 3 more months. (new date given 01 Feb 2020)
So... God willing I shall now wait another 3 months.

Lovelife

I’m not sure. But for employers they will need to go on gov.uk website to use employee checking service so they can get a notification from home office allowing the employee to work while application in progress. It’s an online form which says start now at the beginning. I didn’t see Anything What you’ve explained on that page.

Employer will need to wait for home office’s reply which takes 5 working days I think.

The home office will send a notification to the employer, allowing the employee to work for 6 months. When 6 months about to finish then the employer will need to re-do the right to work check.

Hi all,
Hope you are well.
I am applying for ILR shortly as a straight forward single applicant. Just wondering if I should do it myself or through the solicitor ?
I just had a look at the application form, SET (P) form, is there a need for cover letter ?

I have also found these 2 questions weird, I have my parents living back home so not sure what to answer to them:

- Do you have any friends in your country of birth, nationality or any other country where you have lived for more than 5 years?

- Are you part of any social groups or do you have other cultural ties in your country of birth, nationality or any other country where you have lived for more than 5 years?

I would appreciate if someone could help
Thanks
