good luck, my decision took 3 months approx since we sent additional docs, but HO asked for my additional docs very quickly after the biometrics, i think in about 15 days

yes i think so

yes the evidene submited was mostly relates to travel chaos during those days, flights cancellation confirmation from the airline etc HO asked for additional info like 3 years bank statements, my own job contract, hmrc registeration welcome letter etc most of the evidence was already submitted but t...

Thanks Zimba, as always appreciate your reply On the link of tier 1 family members page, there is no mention of funds maintenance requirements for the extension applications if I am not missing anything. The 1890£ each dependent is for initial application or is it for the extension as well? And if m...

Apologies if i am posting this in a wrong thread: I recently got my ILR under Tier 1 E 200K route, before i got my ILR i got my dependents pbs dependent visa which expires in Jan 2025, although they came to UK but did not live there and went back, I am hopeful that they will be back before their vis...

I think dependents can take as many extenstions as they wish. as long as main applicant is either holding tier 1 or has converted it into ILR

Applied for ILR Route: Tier 1 Entrepreneur
Application Type: Standard
Application submitted online: 24/07/2023
Biometrics appointment: 17/08/2023 (Free)
Additional Docs Email: 24/08/2023
Approval Received: 05/12/2023

Are you able to apply again? I assume you would have time left on your existing FLR

You mind sharing what ambiguties were highlighted by case worker? and you timeline?

I think rather tha chasing the AR, you should apply again

But Mods will soon give their expeer input

Hi Mods,

I have applied for my dependents, can anyone confirm if we need to provide tenancy agreements. House maps etc? I have simply put in my flat's address and that is all.

In the immigration rules, I could not spot any such requirement.

Can anyone please comment?

Thank you so much for your reply, yes i agree just pandemic alone shouldn't be a reason enough but when the flights stopped departing or getting cancelled at the last moment, the uncertainty became too much. May i please ask for your opinion on why they have not specifically added covid a a legit ex...

Hi Mods, your reply will be much appreciated

Hi, as you might be aware that the home office, for no apparent reasons, did not add Covid related exceptions to break in 180 days period for Tier 1 Entrepreneur 200K category when qualifying for the ILR. I read many articles where it was said that it was totally unfair to do this to by not providin...

thanks for the reply, yes i do fall under this as i hope being on red list does mean that there is a major travel disruption..... my point was they made a special covid clause for the many routes but did not add this clause to now closed tier1 entrepreneur categories, which made me wonder why would ...

Hi guys, can please anyone share their option on above

I have posted posted a thread with a similar situation, waiting for experts' opinions.....

the paragraph you are quoting only applies to certain categories of visas, regular tier 1 entrepreneur (200K) does not fall under this, I think.

Anyone please?

pls move this topic to ILR if you think it belongs there, it specifically touched Tier 1 Entrepreneur that's why I am posting it here, Hi Zimba, Marc and rest of Mods and everyone, Just noticing now on gov UK website that the coronavirus/pandemic related allowable absences that will not count toward...

Brilliant sir thanks
My issue is: I have been away from 2.5 months since October and just when I am about to get back, we are seeing flight cancellations, God knows for how long it will continue for, but to be honest, other than British airways, rest of flights are operational I think

They should introduce some kind of relaxation but as facility of getting an extension to fulfil days requirement is available hence they might not. In existing rules, there is a provision where they have given Ebola example so let’s hope and wait that they come up with relaxed rule. For the flights,...

Hi Everyone, mods and ever helpful Mac, As you might know I got my extension done, much thanks to mods here, and now kind of stuck outside UK. Not really stuck but with the second full lockdown and death looking in UK, so you guys think that they will relax the 180 days rule. Technically I can get b...

Hello Mods/members, As I have got my 1st extension under 200K, in your opinion, can I draw funds from my company account to my personal account? Someone said that as per D/L agreement provided to home office, one shouldn't decrease the investment level until ILR at the time of next extension, meanin...

Hi everyone, got my extension approval email today
Thank you so much Marc, other mods and respected members
Can never forget Marc’s help

Applied 18 June
Biometrics 15 sept

thanks Marc, but it does create another confusion, if the start date will be the issue date, then what about the jobs that i am maintaining post my existing expiry date which was in June, if extension starts from lets say Oct, will the jobs between June and Oct count towards my next extension requir...

Hi Marc/mods, I have finally received the invite for idv app, but I have been advised not to use the app and go for online appointment due to app having many issues I would like to request your opinion on an ILR matter, I missed my first full year in Uk where I did not spend 180 days, But from this ...
