Refresher - my application is with home office since January 2016 and received 1st interview letter in June and the second one today
Hi Aditi
Good luck. Hope you would have prepared well. Share the about the interview once finished. May be purposely you did not mention the date of your interview, if not it would give others an idea how long they should wait if you share it. Anyhow good luck again and thanks for updating.
Hi Keth001

Thank you very much. Yes I am preparing for the interview now and hopefully all will be well. Yes I shall look to see an alternative platform to discuss things other than the forum as for obvious reasons you know ( you guessed it right as I have purposely not given my date ) but just so people know what sort of time line they r waiting ; it is about 2 to 3 weeks. Mine leads to October

Thank you very much

Hi Kapil

No reply yet, it is frustating. I have not seen any approval after interview. 6/7 refusals or rest on hold. Omni was the one who got approval in AR.

35) how do you find more contracts - the interviewer himself laughed and said why would you.
36) do you have a website - again he wrote himself
(The rest 10 questions like some in the above last were just going round and round on same things)
Then the interviewer said himself I duno why they have even bothered to ask you to come or ask these questions I have seen today 6 people they had very technical questions about declarations on profits etc ; your questions are very generic.
I will make sure I send this to your cw by this afternoon hopefully you should receive a decision with 2 to 3 weeks.

That's all guys any questions I am more than happy to discuss individually .
Hope this helps

Members can't enjoy Board PM feature until they've proved their credentials with 30 posts.
But at least you checked inbox.

Anyway post in public so all may contribute and benefit.
Its safer for all that way.

Hi Seniors

Are everyone applied ILR through self employment/limited company has been called for interview?

Is this standard procedure these days or only who had amendments have been called for interview?

I received mine after almost 3 months and fee days and I know a few people who waited the similar time lines. We got our 1st letter in June and the 2nd letter came in September giving time almost 10 days toll 20 days for the interview date .
I don't think so I think the letter yuu would receive would say if anything is needed mine said please don't get any docs and similar lines a few ppl I kow had it
I think however it's a good idea to keep everything prepped up before hand incase after the interview they want something maybe ?
You can't hand over papers to tell cw as the interview is done thru Skype and I don't think so where your interview would be held they would be able to pass the docs.

Good luck
