Applied for ILR Route : SET (M) ( 5 years ILR route) paid for super priority premium service 24 hr. Croydon (Bedford Point)
Date application sent / submitted online: 18/04/2019
Payment Debited :18/04/2019
Document uploaded on sopra steria: 24/04/2019
Date Biometrics Enrolled : I opted for a an appointment a month later as I had wanted to ensure i had got all my documents in order to upload and because I had to travel abroad in between submitting the application online and attending the biometric appointment. The appointment was booked for Saturday 18/05/2019 - Attended a Saturday appointment at 9am at Croydon (had paid £100 for the appointment). They enrolled my fingerprints and picture etc. They also took a scan of every page of my passport. I had paid for document checking service (£35), they said everything had already been checked of the documents I had uploaded and all was in order. Apart from this, I should mention that my spouse was not allowed in the building, only the applicant. However, the process was very quick and I was only in the building for half an hour.
Approval/Refusal Received : approval received on Monday 20/05/2019 at 10:30am by email. So paid for 24 hours service having attended a Saturday morning appointment and got email Monday morning. Pretty happy with the service.

BRP Card Received : waiting but should have it within the next few days.

As a silent follower of this forum and having found it soo helpful. I thought it was important to share my experience too!
