Can you guys do me a favour,

Check your status online and tell me what you guys see.
https://www.gov.uk/view-prove-immigration-status.

It's gonna happen soon.
We cannot find your status
This might be because your application is in progress.

Even if you do not have settled status, you may have continuing rights to stay in the UK as an EU citizen or as a family member of an EU citizen under the Free Movement Directive or under existing immigration law. You can evidence this using your ID document or an immigration document issued by the Home Office.

If you have already received confirmation of your status under the EU Settlement Scheme, contact the EU Settlement Resolution Centre.

Yes they send code to either my phone or email. Before I used to see the picture I took during the biometric and the expiry date of my 2.5 leave to remain.
I think they must be working on them. I submitted 9th June.

I suspect they are in the process uploading our status onto the online database. If I am correct this should be the last and final step.
Keep the pressure . Either way soon they will be handing out decisions.

What I'm an trying to calculate is when did they start the process of putting some of our details online. Got to remember we did paper application. Someone within home office would have to input our contact details onto the database.

When did some of you FIRST start seeing this message?
How long AFTER submitting your paper application was you able to get a security code to view your status decision or not?

Yes I do, it’s expiring 8th May, LTR, I am on the 10years route of British child, then I was switched to partners route during the cause of my last renewal, reasons best know to HO, I will be renewing for the 3rd time in May. I can’t allow this HO to spoil my chances of renewal, I will renew while waiting for the EU settlement response, I have asked my MP to chase HO since 1st February, no reply, I sent a letter myself, still nothing...I am very tired of this chase, it’s exhausting

Ok, so by my research and what I have gathered. Most of our application is on review, Which means they have made a decision and is currently overlooking them again by a senior caseworker/manager. As soon as it is signed off we will get calls, letters and emails. It is very important to continue to ring up and complain , DO NOT STOP ARGUING YOUR CASE.

They may make you feel like you are not being heard but trust me they are listening. Keep on making noise for your residence right until you get your confirmation.

Involved 3rd parties if you can.they no longer quick to put us to a manager when we call as they want us to be comfortable . They will say everything looks fine .. DO NOT ACCEPT THIS , we are well in our right get a decision or valid explanation as to why they are delaying .

Anyway I suspect soon more of us will share news of our decision. We have been persistent. Stay strong ...
Remember if they could have denied our rights, we would not have been mailed an application form. They are upset I think that alot of us just escaped high fees and qualified for settlement So they have to agrue amongst themselves first.

@Chris90,You are right. I have been trying to figure out what to do regarding all paper thing with HO. I just feel like I have had enough.

Please I need an advice.
My LTR was due for 3rd renewal on the 14th of Jan 20. I am on 10years parent route. I applied for fee waiver on the 9th of December 2019 and it was granted on the 12 of December 2019.
Because I have already made an application for EU settlement I didn’t applied for the LTR. I didn’t think it would favour me in anyway as I have already paid about £3890 to study access course in college the previous year, and was offer a place at Uni butI couldn’t go because I didn’t have indefinite leave.
So,I spoke to a lawyer in January and she basically told me to apply for LTR because the HO will not grant me a settlement visa, and it takes ages to get a response from HO. She also advised me to remain on the 10yrs route.
So I reapply for the fee waiver a day before the LTR expires. I got an email from them on Tuesday to send my bank statements which they have already seen before and I have nothing there. Though they gave me a deadline of 5 March to send my bank statement but I don’t want a situation whereby I have to reapply for the EU settlement. What do you think? Thanks

Hey ngoo,

Your bank statements and all your documents remain your property while with home office. I would first ring the resolution center and explain why I need them to transfer my bank statement to their other departments {probably the same set of case workers who decide on the 5/10 year route cases} but if they claim this can not be done I would demand a manager , make the same request to the manager then ask for decision on my settlement scheme application or transfer my statement they currently hold. Explain your educational situation and you intention to renew your 10 yr route application and the delay has you in limbo.

Ask them to photo copy what they need (they already do this with passports) and send them to the relevant department.

You probably wanna ring ukvi also and explain the same to get some more time to submit your 10 yr route extension. It may not work but what this will do is keep the pressure on them to do something. The longer we wait the more they run out of excuses.

When did you submit your settlement scheme application, they probaly would have decided on the 10 yr route already if you did that instead of settlement scheme.
Keep strong.

Best wishes

Ngoo, why not walk into your bank and request your 3months bank statements , they print them off, sign and give you immediately. Worst case scenario the bank will charge you 5pounds (my bank always says that but still print them free of charge). Don’t you feel it will be faster and straight forward.
