Entrepreneure to ILR on 10 year base

Post by Party Rocker » Thu Aug 31, 2017 11:23 pm

hi guys,
1) I was wondering how many of the members switch from ENT to ILR on 10 year bases
2) what sort of documents did you produce
3) is there been any cross questioning
4) finally how long they took to decide your application

i did, i had tier 1 entrepreneur extension application with home office already, I Simply varied tier 1 entrepreneur extension application to SET (LR) on premium service in Sheffield Centre and received ILR on same day.
1- Completed Application from (https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/s ... -04-17.pdf)
2-Passed life in UK test (original, make photocopy for yourself)
3- Proof for knowledge of Language (English) (Original)
4- Your Last bio-metric card
5- and Passports Valid and expired (Please provide them photocopies as-well)
6- 2 Recent identical Photographs

If you already applied for extension and want to vary your previous application, tell home office that you want to vary your previous application to SET(LR) through a simple application .
I will recommend you go on premium services to get early decision, by post applications take too long to get decide,
no cross questioning at all
and book your appointment for Sheffield centre if you have already applied for extension there is heavy chance that they have your passports and other original documents in Sheffield and you get same day decision.
Thanks
Best Of Luck

Congratulations.
1- In order to apply at premium service you would need a current passport for id purposes , how did you provide current passport as it must have been with HO for your pending extension application ?

2- How you informed them you are varying your application did you mention this in your cover letter and did you get full refund for extension application fee ?

10 Year Long residence on PSC

Post by Party Rocker » Mon Oct 16, 2017 9:29 pm

Hello guru's today I have varied my application from Tier 1 ENT to 10 year Long residence on PSC but I didn't get any decision as case worker said he couldn't speak to my old case worker and she hasn't got my documents so that's why she can't decide until she get my documents now she gave me a letter saying
"I am writing to acknowledge receipt of your application.
your application is valid but there are further enquiries that need to be made on your case and as such your application has been passed to a team where these enquiries can be made." further on letter it says do not contact visit website for timescale, do not make travel plan or do not call to ask progress of your application unless you hear from us and lastly "provided an applicant has permission to be in the UK when an application is made, he or she is legally entitled to remain here on the same conditions previously granted until the application is decided."
now my question is; is it the general letter they gave to every one and members who have same experience of varying application how long it took you's to get decision after attending PSC.

It is pretty standard. Your documents will have to be sent back to PSC for consideration which takes some time.

Hi PR,

This looks a standard letter and hopefully, you will get the decision soon, but I suggest you keep all your T1 conditions updated i.e business documentation.

I am also going to Vary my T1 Entre Ext application to SET (LR) and would really appreciate if you could kindly answer my queries as you already have experience of doing it now!

1) Which PSC did you go?

2) Did they ask for your any other proof of ID as you didn't have the passport due to already submitted for your T1 Ext ?

3) How did you answer QA1-A17 in the SET (LR) Application Form (version 10/2017) Page 4 Section 1 - Payment Details SET (LR) as you already must have paid the fee online ?

4)How did you answer the following questions at application form of SET (LR), as these are very important for variation application.

C4. Is your valid passport/national identity card/travel document enclosed?
Yes go to C6
No go to C5


C5. If not enclosed then location of Passport/National Identity Card/Travel Document
Lost
Stolen
Expired-returned to national authorities


C6. Do you have any passport or travel document which contains a previous grant of leave or
which you used when you last travelled to the UK?

Yes - document enclosed, passport/travel document number is
Yes - document not enclosed, it is: Lost - Stolen - Expired
No


D5. If your leave to enter/remain has expired, did this leave expire within 14 days of this
the application being made?
Yes go to D6
No go to D7


Please do answer my queries at your earliest convenience

Hi .

I understand it's not my thread, but I have a thread related query from a person who already shared his experience in the same thread and if I start my own thread he/she most probably won't notice it so my queries will remain unanswered.

Thanks for your patience

Hello guys yesterday i have contacted my Mp regarding my application progress and today he recieved this email...
We aim to conclude straightforward applications
made at our Premium Service Centres within 24 hours of receipt. However, Mr
........ application is not straightforward and it has been necessary to make
further enquiries to consider his application in full.
As part of the application process, we routinely conduct checks with other
government departments and external agencies. The extent and length of time
taken to complete these checks varies according to the particular circumstance of
each application. The progress of these checks is regularly monitored.
The enquiries on Mr ........ application remain outstanding. As a result, we are
unable to expedite his application. It is possible for us to return Mr ........
passport in order to allow him to travel. However, this would lead to his application
being considered withdrawn and he would be required to apply for Entry Clearance
overseas in order to permitted to return to the UK. Further information on how to
withdrawn an application can be found on our website at: www.gov.uk/cancel-visa
I am unable to provide a timescale for when Mr ....... application will be
concluded. However, please assure Mr ...... that we will contact him as soon as
a decision has been made.

NOW ANY MEMBER WHO HAVE CONTACTED MP BEFORE GOT SAME KIND OF RESPONSE OR ITS DIFFERENT APPLICATION TO APPLICATION
