Hi all, I would like some advice. I'm a British National who is applying for my spouse's FLR M renewal. I'm the sole earner who is on a job paying well above the financial requirement but have decided to quit as the working environment is not for me. By god's grace, I have consistently been in perma...

Thank you, best of luck.

Best of luck to you too Zeeshi! Hope you hear positive news soon.

No, nothing from the MP before the decision

Hi Newbie, I can tell you from my personal experience, I am unable to work for any other company other than my existing Tier 2G sponsor until my ILR is approved. It should not stop you from sitting for interviews as long as you are upfront with prospective employers and explain the situation. In my ...

Feeling very positive after seeing a 13th October approval for SET LR which means it is definitely moving at a good speed. Fingers crossed I, and others like me, see quick approvals in the coming days. Honestly, this thread provides me with a bit more calm and better sleep at night. Cannot wait to t...

Hi everyone, am I right in thinking the ILR(LR) hasn't got too many applications for October and November 2020 or is it just that not much people from those two months have posted on this forum? If there are actually less application than we might get quicker decision compared to August and Septemb...

Anyone else been hopelessly refreshing timeline threads praying for progress? Sending everyone some positive energy to get positive outcomes on their applications very soon!

Finally... after a long wait (15 days short of 6 months) my wife's SET(M) has been approved. Applied 19/08/20, decision received 04/02/21. Hang in there all those who have applied. Congrats sean2602! Hopefully my wife's is not too far behind now, (Sep 2nd application). Am seeing a trend smoewhat fo...

I'm also in this position over Set (M), being the partner of an applicant who applied Sep 2nd so we are over 5 months now, and nothing from HO. We will probably wait a bit before going down the MP escalation route, but I too am baffled as to why Set (O) and (LR) processes in 2-3 months typically. T...

My fellow SET M & SET LR friends, so we still don’t have an explanation as to why our applications are taking far longer than SET O despite paying the same amount? HO should be ashamed and frankly speaking, someone there should be losing their job, no priority service and you have to be locked down...

Can I suggest you write to your local MP and try escalating your case based on compassionate reasons. This week I too received an offer where the employer wanted me onboarded early March. Yesterday morning I was drafting a letter to my local MP when the magical email from HO arrived :wink: In this ...

Congrats poper, so happy for you and glad your ordeal is over! I must say, I always wish well for everyone but having seen SET O applicants get approvals in 2 month and talk about the stress they have to go through is a bit comical when SET LR applicants have 4+ month waits. Don't mean anyone offen...

@swissman20, @poper and @Aksrava - Correct, currently running at around 125-130 days for Set LR. It is possible that the case load post August is lower and decision times may start reducing steadily. August end had the highest number of Set LR applications since last March (at least from what was r...

For the LR applications, is the backlog/decision time improving or getting worse now since covid? From my research it seems to have gone from 5 months (first lockdown) to 3-4 months now (only know this by looking at the threads). I’m wondering whether Christmas would’ve put a dent in catching up wi...

@poper - haha, I know! August and September (together) Set LR summary below. These are only the ones that have been reported. As we know and have seen, some people only post timelines after their application has been approved, so there may be more to come. Total number of applicants = 142 Number of...
