They rely on social photos very much, any photos your wedding day photos, photos taken by your friends ask them to send it to you. Your in laws might have some photos Christmas , Eid that's sort of things


Electoral roll letters, along with one you mentioned, holiday receipts, booking reservation receipts. Anything which can link to your relationship with each other,

Hope this helps, good news is your case is under consideration, you should be getting reply in 15 days. Send these docs by recorded first class delivery and keep proof of postage safe.

Has anybody done recent FLRFP application, I have submitted my application on 30th of July 2015. I did receive human rights letter and biometric letter for the previous application.
I actually posted one application on fifth of May 2015. However, I used the wrong form and subsequently paid the wrong fee. Home office contacted me and asked me to pay the difference of £48 to cover the application fee and also pay I HS £500surcharge. After eight weeks they sent the application back along with document bundle and asked me to resubmit the application with new form. Anyways I submitted a new application on 30 July 2015 they Took the money out on fifth of August 2015. At this occasion I never had received acknowledgement letter or a biometric invite.
Now it has been nine weeks and I haven't Heard anything yet.
My case is family life in the UK and I applied as a father of a British citizen i.e. my daughter. They also contacted my employer and stopped me working.
My previous leave was expired in April 2013, they got rejected for HSMP extension, I appealed throughout and got till Permission to apply for judicial review, however it was not granted and I switched to FLRFP after the birth of my daughter.
No has anybody been in my situation? What does anybody know what is the normal processing time of FLR FP ?
Home Office says there is no guidelines for these kind of cases,

Can anybody share their experience??

My timeline attached and also we don't have any kids.


I'm a new member of this and need some help and advise from you guys as I have been reading this thread from quite sometime and wish if you guys can help me regarding my query.

I have been in the UK from feb 2007, came as a student and changed to Tier 1 General and when I applied for the 3 year extension my visa has been refused on the basis of interview and they said applicant is not credible.

I have appealed to First tier tribunal they refused and appealed to Upper Tribunal but they sent a letter saying they won't change the decision.

I have applied for FLP FP on the basis for family and private life and I had a girlfriend and we got married religiously not the registered marriage.

As I have applied after 28 days run out because of some issues at the time.
I currently don't have right to work and I don't know what to do till then as everyone here is saying it takes months and years to get reply from home office. I don't know what to do in this case. My wife wrote a letter to local mp but no luck and also to HomeOffice and they said they can't give me temporary right to work until application is decided.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Date application sent: 25/04/2015
Date Acknowledgement received: 29/04/2015
Date biometrics letter received : 19/05/2015
Date Biometrics done: 21/05/2015


Many Thanks

Hi Majid786...you have to send a letter from your landlord explaining that you live at......address and he pays the bills this is proof for Ho that u don't have any bill letters. Send the sky letters in the last 6months in both you and wife's name. All the best with your application

Get a letter from your GP,that you and your wife are registered there,
A letter from your landlord addressed to both of you,
A letter from your leader at mosque or church,of both of you
Good Luck
You will hear good news from them,don't worry,
If HO will refuse your application,they won't request for more documents.

Hei guys, how long HO is taking to send acknowledgement letter, biometric letter & decision for FLR(FP) these days ? I need to buy around 6 weeks, from UKVI to apply for my ILR. My employer is asking some kind of letter from UKVI 3 weeks before my visa expiry, so I am thinking If I should apply now ? My visa expires end of this month. I can apply ILR on or after 26 November....

Hi just to let everyone know, my wife has been granted 10 years leave to remain via the FLR FP route.

We submitted the application on 16th July 2015, she submitted her biometrics on 1st August and received her BRP on 5th October.

I have gone through a lot to get this sorted, I really want to help anyone else in a similar situation or about to go through. So let me know please.

Hi everyone

Yesterday I received a letter from HO, affirming my winning appeal and that they hope to implement judge’s decision.

However, I was asked to send our passports to Post Decision Case Unit in Sheffield. Passports were not returned with the HO refusal letter back in 2013, which means the passports are still with them.

I have written back to them to explain this. They didn't say how long it will take before our visas and documents are sent to us. Anyone knows how long t usually takes post decision unit to issue visa?

Thanks

Immigration history

changed to a student dependant in 2007
Gave birth to my 3rd child in 2007
Student visa until 2010
Changed visa in 2010 to post study work
Post study work visa until 2012
Just before the rules changed in 2012, made a family visa on form flro in 2012
Visa refused in 2013 with a right of appeal
Appeal listed for February 2014 and withdrawn on the same day by the HO
A new refusal letter in June 2014 with another right of appeal
2nd appeal held in August 2014 but refused
Appeal to First Tier Tribunal (FT) to fo to Upper Tribunal (UT)
Appeal granted in Sept.2014 to UT
Appeal held in June 2015
Appeal allowed and decision was communicated verbally on the day
Detrmination letter received in August 2015
Waiting time passed, but hey you never can predict HO
I am strongly trying to believe everything has now ended and closer to the end of the whole saga.
So yeah! That is it, we have used solicitor all the way and we were not awarded any fees.

We submitted the application on 16th July 2015, she submitted her biometrics on 1st August and received her BRP on 5th October.

I have gone through a lot to get this sorted, I really want to help anyone else in a similar situation or about to go through. So let me know please.
Hi Hashim !
Could you tell us about your case? Did you apply under a 7 years child concession category or under British spouse category. Thanks

Hello Everyone hope you are doing well.

Please shed some light on my case and give me some advice as it will be 6 months on 25th of this month since I applied for my FLR fp application.

As currently I don't have Right to work in the Uk it's getting very difficult for us to survive here.

Can I do something else apart waiting from my end so HO takes the decision on my case.

Case History:

I have been in the UK from feb 2007, came as a student and changed to Tier 1 General and when I applied for the 3 year extension my visa has been refused on the basis of interview and they said applicant is not credible.

I have appealed to First tier tribunal they refused and appealed to Upper Tribunal but they sent a letter saying they won't change the decision.

I have applied for FLP FP on the basis for family and private life and I had a girlfriend and we got married religiously not the registered marriage.

As I have applied after 28 days run out because of some issues at the time.I currently don't have right to work and I don't know what to do till then as everyone here is saying it takes months and years to get reply from home office. I don't know what to do in this case. My wife wrote a letter to local mp but no luck and also to HomeOffice and they said they can't give me temporary right to work until application is decided.

HO requested for my updated passport in June which was expired while with HO. So we requested for return of original passport so we can renew and return but haven't heard anything after that.

We have made numerous calls and letters to Case Worker but never got any response from them. They don't even communicate clearly how long it will take?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Date application sent: 25/04/2015
Date Acknowledgement received: 29/04/2015
Date biometrics letter received : 19/05/2015
Date Biometrics done: 21/05/2015
Decision: Waiting


Many Thanks in advance.
