Please do NOT post SET LR timelines in this topic. The subject title clearly states which applications the thread is for.

SET LR has its own timeline thread.

Applied for ILR Route : SET(O) Tier 2 General 5yr route - standard processing
Date application sent : 16/03/2020
Date Biometrics Enrolled : 23/03/2020 - first free appointment, Glasgow
Payment Debited : 16/03/2020

Note: Some Sopra Steria centres in libraries at this time had closed due to virus outbreak. Other centres running and my bio-metrics appointment went ahead normally.

It will be interesting to see how COVID-19 affects processing times and what other disruptions come up.

Just an update. I am still waiting for any kind of confirmation letter. Gave a call to Immigration today and been told that delay is caused by less amount of workers in HO due to situation in the country. My status in Right to work changed so I hope it’s a good sign. I am not sure if I will get a refund of £800?
