Nope, still waiting. Nobstatus update aswell. Do we any options legally to complain and request for update?. Can we go to the appointment centre to enquire?

Thanks,

Hi
Can someone let me know why they hold application for extra checks? And how long they hold in the past minimum and maximum time?
I got the same letter yesterday and CW said we will update you within 10 working days. Is that possible?
As my case was very straight farword.
Five years root as tier 1 dependent.
Please let me know if anyone has got any related information.
Thanks

Hi Guys,
I applied on 21st Sept 2018 through Glasgow PSC, they handed me the standard further checks letter. Last week my company has an audit but compliant officer was keep saying us that this audit has nothing to do with the ILR application I have made. I am the only migrant employed worker in the company and they never audit us in last 5 years and suddenly after my ILR application home office decided to audit us.

The audit went well, there is nothing to hide the only thing is I had about 30% pay rise last year and my salary now is £35,500. They were investigating this very hard and was trying to understand the reason for the rise. My salary is quite above my SOC code also.

They requested all P60 from my employer which my HR manager has sent to them. They could have asked me the same I had the same with me when I made the application 2 months back.

Million Dollar Question: Does anyone know here how long will it take further? Fed up with all the waiting and really anxious now.

Thanks

Ali

Hi all,
I applied for SET(O) ILR under tier 2 general 5 year route on 26th September 2018 . I opted for same day premium service at Croydon.
After a long wait I got a call from the case worker asking why haven't I applied for extension for my spouse to which I said that I'll be applying later as her PBS dependent visa is still valid for another year and the case worker said that it's ok and she will add these notes to my file. And then the case worker called again in 10 mins and asked me to come to counter number 42 and gave me a paper requesting for my 5 years original P60 and April, May & June 2018 Salary slips. (July to septemer already submitted with the application)

I had all my original P60's and salary slip's but I didn't have my original P11D as I get travel allowance which is declared in my P11D so I had to call HMRC and request for the same which took 5 days to come and on the 6th day i.e. 3rd October I sent all original documents to the case worker in Croydon via Special delivery.

My application was quite simple as I have been employed by the same employer for these 5 years and my salary has always been well above the SOC code. However during my renewal of tier 2 visa I did get a salary hike of almost 40%. Apart from that everything was ok.

Has anyone had similar experience ?
Should I ask my employer to be prepared for a compliance visit ?

If yes then please share how long did it take to get a response from UKVI & after how long should I contact them to get an update on the application?

Hi,
I am also in similar situation, Today I applied for ILR under premium service at Croydon Office, ( I applied for ILR throur Tier 2 General 5 years route) after I gave my biometrics at 9.0 AM and I was waiting in the cafeteria until 11.00 AM and I got a phone call from case work and she raised couple of question.

1Q. Your marterial status is married, you have not mentoned about your dependent visa.
Ans: I answered my wife having valid visa until Dec 2019 , then case worker said okay thats fine (for me and my wife having valid visas until Dec 2019, here I am the main applicant)

2Q. Your salary is increased to 36,500.00 since Aug and in your Cos it shows 31,000.00, do you have any reason for this hike.
Ans: Yes my salary was increased to £36,500.00 and I have a letter from the employer and in the letter it clearly says the reason for salary hike (salary increased due to my good performance.

3Q. Can you submit that letter to me.
Ans: I said yes and submitted the letter to the case worker.


I was waiting in the cafeteria and after 35 mins again I got a phone call from the same case worker and she gave me a letter and she kept all my documets with her-“ The letter says your application is valid but there are further enquiries thar need to be made on your case and as such your application has been passed to a team where these enquiries can be made.”

I asked case worker, how long it takes to do this - she said it may takes weeks or months.



/*
SET (O) Application
And Supporting documents I,ve submitted to the case worker:
Passport, BRP card,
3 months ply slips.
3 Months bank statements(Aug, Sep and Oct pay slips).
Employer letter.
Salary Appraisal letter for £36,500.00
Life in UK certificate.
Uk Masters certificate.
2 Photos.
*/

I am so disappointed, As I have travelling plans, my grand fater is not feeling well, he is in 80,s. He wants to see me, I thought once i got ILR I will spend some time with him, I paid £3075.00 for same day service, but still i didn,t get decision on the same day.My employer informed to Home office regarding my salary hike.

Every thing is very clear and genune from side but still case worker gave me that letter.

Anyone gone through similar situation or known. Howmuch time generally takes in such situation. To whom we have to enquire regarding the same.

Many Thanks in advance & your help is much appreciated

@bhagsred

If that is the only reason that they couldn't verify your LUK test then it should not take long as it is a matter of verifying test result. If delays are at the test centre then caseworker can't do much about it than to wait. However if they have any other concerns might take as long as 4-6 months.

Usually if there was a hike in salary just before ILR application can raise concerns. This is followed by a compliance visit to your company usually within a month. And post visit another 3 months approx to make a decision.

At the time appointment she raised only that constraint. There is no sudden hike in salary before my ilr application. There is a hike in salary @2K, when I got extension 2 years back. The current salary I quoted excluding OT is 32 K (as per min. salary for shortage occupation job id 2129).

I sent a letter to Liverpool PSC 2 days back, but no response.

I haven’t applied ILR for my spouse and kids because my wife not yet finished her 5 years cohabitation period, I'll be applying my spouse and kids PBS dependent visa extension, which are due to expire on 15/12/2018. This depends on my current ILR visa decision. In worst case scenario, assuming I haven’t got my decision before the expiry of my spouse and dependents visa, under what category I have to extend their visa.

Thanks,
Bhargav

Got the package from UKVI special delivery. Was very nervous to open. Gained courage and opened. Checked for my passports etc all intact and then the letter. The letter stating that my ILR is approved and that the card will be sent within 10 days.

Can't thank enough the moderators and members for sharing your knowledge and suggestions. Thank you all once again.

I wish all a good luck and pray that all pending applications get approved sooner or later. Just be patient and keep an eye out for information on this amazing website.

@Bclir18, may I know what did they check during compliance visit with your employer, they check only your records or whole company audit. Thank you, jgnaidu.
