Hi ShaDP,

I suggest to write a complaint against them. They are thinking we are all fool and silly people. use strong wording with facts and tell them off. your case must be very simple to process within 4 weeks why they are taking too long.

[quote="gag12"] HO staff knew you have applied for Tier 1 so they will hold your application and check Tier 1 elements before grant you even another category visa. They are very clever. They will take your time anyway. Also your 5 years will start from 0 day. Just keep in mind everything before chan...

[quote="kapsb80 Yes it was all about self employment and my job. They were ON and ON about 45 mins the same question in different ways. Like have I submitted tax return every year since 2010?

[quote="aruns27"]hello all, Hey don't go to India without your approval otherwise you will stuck there and cannot come back.

Hi No I have not received any questionnaires only face to face interview call. I was on Tier 1 general to ILR and I did 2010-2011, 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 amendments, paid all tax and this year tax is already under set DD Plan. My 75% employment and 25% was my sole trader business. let see how it wi...

After 10 month I have received interview call.

[quote="Happy85"][quote="sarahkhan175"][quote="Happy85 Its very hard they will reply you. I send 100 emails never got reply my Solicitor send only one email and received reply after 1 day...

[quote="Happy85 Its a common sense there should be any contact details. your solicitor needs to contact them to cheers Questionnaires or inform them there is no questionnaires whatever they are asking in letter we going to provide them before date. Or you can just reply to this letter and say you ha...

[quote="mansimranbal"] The chance is again 50/50 but all you need to know you will get right to appeal which you will never get in Tier 1 general. On appeal you can stay and fight. Fees will be £2887.00 GBP premium appointment plus your solicitor fee. your solicitor needs to write a letter to Sheffi...

[quote="mansimranbal"]Hi, You can switch your application from Tier 1 general to LR before rejection. once they have made the decision you cannot apply for LR then. Unfortunately Tier 1 general applicant don't get right to appeal but if they will refuse LR you will have right to appeal. If they were...

[quote="nhraviraj"]@sarahkhan175 & @Reddy7 The time scale is not guaranteed, HO can take as long as they want. Depends on individuals application and lawyer as well. My Lawyer said current time is up to 12 months but some of our forum member has been till 14 months or more. Boys who have been reject...

[quote="Reddy7"]Hello Guys, HO is rejecting application if they are not satisfied with the answers, especially how they manage full time job with business and why tax return was amended. Its hard to answer for me as well. I have heard 3 cases have been rejected recently - one for the full time emplo...

Hi vegeta
Could you please share Self-employment questionnaire with us ? thanks

As per the home office website, they have 100-140 trained staff to work on ILR applications. But they have lots of application waiting for the decision. They also have a different team for Asylum and domestic violence cases etc I don't know what is right or wrong but looks like many candidates are w...

I heard many candidates are waiting for their postal application decision. I am also waiting from last 8 months and no letter no news no update from HO. Recently sent a letter using MP and let see what happened. Looks like they have back lock work and not ILR they are delaying mostly all other types...

My case is over 6 months and still waiting for the responds. HO send a letter after 8 weeks and said yes they will call me for interview but now 26 weeks over no reply till today. Many cases are pending I don't know what they are doing.

we are all on the same board, we just need to sit back and wait for the approval letter.
