Re: Applying for ILR - Do I HAVE to go to an appointment?

Interesting... does anybody know what they use to determine the criteria? My last FLR(M) I didn't need to attend and was able to use the mobile app. Seems a little strange I'd no longer be eligible.

Applying for ILR - Do I HAVE to go to an appointment?

So I submitted my SET(M) application and was then prompted to attend an appointment to submit my biometric information. I was a little confused however because the gov.uk site says: "You may not need to attend a UKVCAS service centre if you’re applying for a replacement Biometric Residence Card (BRC...

Re: What can I use for evidence of wife's settled status?

As I told you earlier, this highlighted above is what you need. Like you rightly mentioned, it's better if they throw it away if not needed, than not providing it if needed. In my case many years ago, I provided all pages, not just the data page. Top to bottom as it cost me not a thing. The HO has ...

Re: What can I use for evidence of wife's settled status?

Apart from the fact that a British citizen does not have a settled status (instead they have the right of abode), UKVI does not need you to provide any evidence previously provided on this. I assume you are under the family route because of your British partner to begin with ?? The document list is...

What can I use for evidence of wife's settled status?

Hello, I am currently in the process of applying for ILR through the 5-year spouse route, and they are asking for evidence of my wife's settled status. My wife was born in the UK and is a British citizen. I'm not sure what they would consider valid proof of her settled status. Her passport expired l...

When can I apply for ILR(M)

Hello all, I have read that typically you apply 28 days before you current visa expires, but the last extension of FLR(M) that I did was delayed by 6 months due to COVID, so I will have had FLR(M) for 5 years in November of this year, but my current residence permit does not expire until April 2023 ...

I can't seem to find any guidance online regarding when to book my Life in the UK test. I still have a fair bit of time before my current FLR(M) visa expires, and everything online says to apply for ILR within 28 days of that expiring, but nothing mentions when to book and take the Life in the UK te...

The date of application is the date you submit and pay online and not the biometric appointment.
Ah yes, I just meant, with the centres closed right now, should I still fill out the application online on the 26th, or should I wait for them to open again?

Yes, but the net wages are shown on your payslip and must match your bank statements. If they do not then HO can't verify exactly what your gross wages are, and based on Apprnedix FM 1.7, section 3.1.4, "Where the gross (pre-tax) amount of any income cannot be properly evidenced, the net (post-tax)...

The £200 deduction WILL matter because your payslips must match your bank statement deposits.

You can apply under category A or B with non-salaried income. The calculation is based off of what you actually earned over a period of time. For instance assume you have been working at both places for 6 months (which is the requirement for category A). Your income from job 1 is £16890 (and I'm gue...
