Congratulations!

Hi Guys, congrats first of all did you try to know the reason why did they take so long for taking decision? Was your case so complicated for them to decided could you please explain further for other's help thanks My case was straightforward, but there was a problem with the computer system that c...

Congrats!
I had to wait five hours in Solihull and that was such a tedious and long wait. I feel your pain.
However, well done and hopefully no more immigration stuff to go through again.

Thanks WR1.

Yes, I did receive my BRP yesterday.
I got my letter just minutes before the closing time on Friday. And then there was a long bank holiday weekend.
So effectively it arrived in just two working days I guess.

congrats.. I have a query, if you can help me with.. I booked my appointment in Croydon few weeks back(Paid old fee) and then thought of changing it to Solihull(5 min. bus for me) but I am afraid of the new fee and didn't change it. It's good to know that they didn't charge you extra fee(Diff. betw...

Thanks Amber.

Just to update that my biometric card arrived this morning.
Even considering that we had a bank holiday inbetween, I'm impressed at how quickly it arrived.

I'm married to a British husband and I had obtained a spouse visa before July 2012 through FLR (M) from a student visa. I had a 11:30 am booking yesterday on 2 May at Solihull. I had made a booking before the fee change in Liverpool but changed it to Solihull when it became available as it is just o...

Hello, I hope anyone who has knowledge on this can shed light on it for me. I am applying for ILR SET(M) next month after living on a spouse visa FLR(M) for two years, and I have a question regarding the question, How long have you lived in the UK? I first entered the UK in Sep 2006 to do a master's...

Well I did a quick simple search and found some that can be relevant to you. http://www.immigrationboards.com/uk-tier-1-general-visas/ilr-parents-baby-born-outside-uk-t158717.html?hilit=baby%20outside%20uk#p996831 http://www.immigrationboards.com/british-citizenship/child-born-outside-uk-both-parent...

Do you have a TV license? You can perhaps change the direct debit information, and they will send you a confirmation letter.
And surely you must have bank account, and you can order bank statements?
Take any letters from Tesco, Boots, etc etc if you have any. I heard that they help too.

I did some googling and found this:

Thanks for sharing your experience. I hope that this continues to be that way.

I personally wouldn't risk it and reschedule it even if it costs more money if I were you. When I did FLR (M) two years ago in Glasgow, I saw many people getting their applications refused because they did not have proof of English proficiency. You would think common sense would suffice, but it isn'...

Last time I did my FLR (M) two years ago, Lloyds was really cooperative about statements and they printed statements and stamped them for me. That was what I was going to do this time too, but I guess they changed their policy... Two years ago, HSBC, my husband's bank, was really useless about it. T...

I made a booking before 6 Apr and made the payment obviously. If I were to reschedule after 6 Apr, would I still be under the old fee rule? Or rescheduling would automatically put me under the new fee threshold?

I am also confused about calculating 28-day period, and would appreciate words of wisdom from senior members. I am about to make set (M) ILR next month, but I'm really confused about exactly when I can make appointment. My pre-July 2012 FLR(M) (Was on a student visa and changed to FLR (M) after marr...

Bank/credit card statements?
