After a 1/2 hour interview with CW I came back to reception. Around 12.30 announcement was made to go for Bio Metrics. ( Inside a small room in reception). The lady who did the Bio Metrics checked My passport. Was particularly interested whether it was extended.(I have extended it up to 2015). She told me that CW will return it to me with all the rest of My documents.

The Bio Metiric results have come through so quickly.( very surprising)ist Then around 1 pm was told by the receptionist to go out and come back by 3pm.Went to a nice bakery to have a sandwich and a coffee.Hung around inside the shopping mall and went back to the PEO at 3 pm. Told to wait as CW has not finished the paper work yet. Around 3.30pm announcement was made to collect My documents. Reception returned My Passport, Last Payslip,Last bank statement along with an approval letter sighned by the CW. Also told that Bio Metric Card will arrive with in 7-10 days.Checked all the documents and left the PEO.A very Pleasant experience where I have prepared Myself for a tough interview.

Returned back to London immediately. Actually the railway station is 10 minutes fromn PEO.( Don't know how I got lost) A very nice small town. 1 1/2 hour away from London by train.

A Big Thank you to those Forum Members for all the help given to me during the last 5 months.The support was so overwhelming and I am really humbled. All the best for those applying for their ILRs. Good Luck and God Bless All.

Happy to answer any questions or offer advise,to the best of My ability.
