Initially applied for T1(Entrepreneur) second extension: 14 Jan 2022; Varied to ILR: 21 Mar 2022 (standard application, priority not available); Documents and Biometrics: 8 Apr 2022; Complained to the HO on 21 Sep 2022 - no reply; First MP letter to HO: 4 Oct 2022, no reply; Second MP letter: 17 No...

the processing time is open. Is this true? True. They used to say that we could expect their decision within 6 months but it wasn't really a set time frame and I can no longer find it anywhere. Sadly, we can't travel while waiting for the decision, I had to cancel several trips. I was in a similar ...

My ILR timeline: Initially applied for T1(Entrepreneur) second extension: 14 Jan 2022 (was two months short of completing the employment requirement); Submitted documents and Biometrics on 18 Mar 2022 (last possible day); Varied to ILR: 21 Mar 2022 (standard application, priority not available); Doc...

Have you got your ILR or still the decision is pending. Iam also facing the same issues.

Hi Abdul,
Sorry for a late reply. Finally received it now after a complain and two MP letters. Hope you get your decision soon.

patience and developing how to cope with the waiting may be a better strategy.

thank you very much for your thoughtful reply

Dear forum, A quick update. I applied for ILR (Set(O), Tier 1 Entrepreneur 5 years) on 21 Mar 2022 Documents sent and Biometrics enrolled: 8 Apr 2022 Awaiting the HO decision. No complex letter. Complained to the HO on 21st Sep 2022, they're now past their 20 working days to reply and I haven't hear...

Thank you
Does anybody have a sample letter to MP, please? I'll really appreciate it.
If there's a complication the HO tends to send a letter to inform about it, no such letter received.
Thank you thank you!

Dear Forum, My previous topic is locked so I'm starting a new one. I applied for ILR (Set(O), Tier 1 Entrepreneur 5 years) on 21 Mar 2022 Documents sent and Biometrics enrolled: 8 Apr 2022 Awaiting the HO decision. No complex letter. Questions: (1) I remember the HO have 6 months (26 weeks) to make ...

Applied for T1(E) extension: 14 Jan 2022 Varied to ILR (Tier 1 Entrepreneur 5 years): 21 Mar 2022 Application Type: Standard (priority not available) Documents sent and Biometrics enrolled: 8 Apr 2022 Documents received by HO: 8 Apr 2022 Awaiting the HO decision. Moderator edit : Please do NOT ask q...

This is not straightforward and I am not totally clear about it. But, if I was in your situation, I would use the date of application (or I don't know) as the end date of recent visa to avoid getting the next question which you can't answer since you actually did apply in time. THank you. I'm not v...

I am not exactly sure of your interpretation. I interpret "12-month period referred to above" to mean the same criteria set out "at least 12 months during the applicant’s most recent grant of leave or, where that leave was granted less than 12 months ago, for at least the 12 months immediately befo...

Dear Forum, Practical questions about the ILR application form. My Tier 1 E expired 14 Jan 2022. I applied for an extension on 14 Jan which extends my right to stay in the UK under the current visa category until the decision is made. I am now varying this application to ILR. Application form questi...

oops
no
9 weeks

BTW and for info: It's now 3 months to provide biometrics and documents.
Applied 14 Jan, bio/docs should be provided by 18 March.

Question about the online application form:
Do I need to include all the jobs that I created into the application form or only those that I use to qualify for the extension?
Thank you

First and foremost - try not to depend on this. There is no clear definition that you can rely on.

Understand. THank you

Another question about dates: Interestingly, if you get refused, you get the extra time. You can submit a new application within 14 days of refusal. You are an overstayer, but that 14 days of overstay can be disregarded. You are making a totally new application, so the application date is changed. I...

I don't think you can use jobs to the "date of variation". There is no such date defined anywhere. The only yardstick is "date of application" and that is the date of your first application. So, if you vary your application, you still need to meet the requirements as of the date of your first appli...

Dear Forum, I'm applying for a covid related T1E extension, after all. Question re jobs creation: When calculation jobs, can I include jobs that existed after the application date for the previous T1E extension but before I got the approval? Example: Initial T1(E) expired 6 Dec 2019 Applied to exten...

From the Guidance "Validation, variation and withdrawal of applications": Date of application: application to vary Where an application is varied, the application date remains the date of the original application for the purpose of whether an applicant has, or will have, section 3C leave. ... Howeve...

Can I use jobs that existed between 6 Dec 2019 and 14 Jan 2020 towards the current T1E job creation? p.s. This was not used to score points for my first T1E extension. But the guidance also says "you can only score points for employment activity from your most recent extension period of leave" - in...

You can use the jobs created in the 12 months before application for meeting ILR job requirements - it does not have to be another 12 months after extension. Is there any reference to support this, please? I will really appreciate any help there. This is exactly what I originally thought and exactl...

Let me understand this correctly. You are now completed 5 years but you haven't met the requirement for job creation for ILR. Yes and I only lack 10 weeks Are you now concerned that even with the Covid exception your extension will be refused? No, I have no concerns there, I satisfy all the require...

That does not answer my question. I asked why would your extension will be refused? That has nothing to do with your ILR It may be refused if I fail to provide enough evidence or fail to provide a bank statement to show maintenance funds for the last 90 days, or any other reason that will not damag...
