Anyone received a settlement or pre settlement this week I have submitted biometric on Thursday waiting to hear from them now On my Surinder Singh forum, there have been 18 people who have received their status in the last two weeks. Three for settled status and fifteen for pre-settled!! :D You the...
Hi Johnlk please did you submit if you are British Citizen any work or self employed (exercising treaty) proof or no? when was expire date of Residence Card How long does take to get ILR Yes, I am the BC. I submitted evidence of my work in another EU state, marriage certificate and translation, and...
So, we just had a call from UKVI. I was told my wife's proof of residency in the UK for the past 5 years that I had submitted with her application was fine, but I had not enclosed any proof I had been here too. I can't remember seeing anything about this on the form, so I didn't enclose anything. I...
Probably one hour later the same guy has called. He's checked my history through my National Insurance number, is satisfied with the result and has granted my wife ILR. He'll send back all the documents we supplied with the application, and another department will be sending out the card, "within th...

Impossible to plan any kind of future until received. same here, biometrics done last Tuesday, 18th Jun No decisi...

Also, as a note, my residence permit vignette had "expired" back in January and I didn't provide any info again about our period while in the EU country. I skipped all of those questions and simply provided proof of 5 years residence and marriage certificate. There was no issue there. I find this i...
Biometrics given! - had to travel to another city in the beautiful weather! :-) Residence Documentation expired in October. It was a vignette on an A4 piece of paper called Immigration Status Document, as my wife requested her passport back. At the time, they did not issue biometric cards. Well don...
I wrote to agency weblink removed by moderator a few days ago as they claim to offer the story to any paper/mag interested. I'm starting to think they expect a "aliens ate my hamster" type story so probably the wrong place to write. Anyway, no response so far. I didn't bother making an official comp...
I think it would be good idea to try to reach one of the major newspapers at this point. That seems to be only way to get a response from HO. (or to start a change.org campain?/parliament petition and get it heard - any ideas?) I would agree, bring it to the attention of the masses, and rightfully ...
I'll ask again as no-one has posted a reply: Has anyone made a complaint, and have they received any kind of response yet? If so, which is the best place to complain: UKVI, a national newspaper or an MP? I suspect the best results would be to an MP, but mine is a Tory so I suspect little help as he ...
We called on the 30th March, and had the callback on the same day, so one of the first to apply. Our forms came through when the first ones were received and we completed them and posted it all back within 2-3 days. We have heard absolutely zero too. I know some members here have raised a complaint,...
Unfortunately we got the same response from Home Office after realizing Surinder Singh applications cannot be made online. They got our personal details and said paper form will be sent by post. Very disappointing as we waited for this scheme for months and advised it would be an easy and simple pr...
My friend got the same reply as yours. I replied to them today no reply from them yet. detail of representative is name and contact details if you named someone to deal with your application on your behalf like solicitors or spouce . Oh I see. I guess I just need to wait for an email and take it fr...
Good news :D :D :D Surinder Singher visa holder: For Those who are under the Surinder Singh case, you will be able to apply to the Eu settlement Scheme. The web site will be live on the first of April, 2019, and there will be an option for Surinder Singh cases. Please note that the application will...
Ok, so it looks like it's my wife's absences that matter. We haven't tallied up exactly her time out of the UK, but it looks like it could be quite close, or even over the 6 month maximum. So the new question would be: has anyone applied and succeeded even though they had been absent for +6 months o...
Hi, sorry if it's been asked before, but I cannot find an answer. Like many other members, we've been a long time away from the forum until now when we hope to soon be applying for PR under the SS rules. Just a quick question regarding the absence from the UK part of the form: does this mean absence...
Sorry if its a bit of a computer question, but I'm unsure of the file format I sent. I downloaded the form from the UKBA site, but it opened to reveal a mess of characters, that made no sense at all. I presume it's because I don't have Microsoft Word on my laptop. Anyway, after messing around conver...
Just stumbled across this thread as I am in pretty much the same situation as you jonathan, and google led me here. One thing I would suggest (as others have suggested to me), would be to apply for your wife's National Insurance number before applying for her Residency Card. This is because she may ...
Update Confirmation via email from the VAC in Warsaw: " Entry clearance has been granted ." So, just to confirm, the contract (showing payment on completion), and seperate letter from my friend were enough to show "real and effective" work in our application. Thank you so much Directive/2004/38/EC ...
