A P60 for the relevant period(s) of employment relied upon A signed contract of employment These are not required. Thanks.

How to apply early and benefit from the date of the ILR decision ? Wow thanks for this. This is very interesting as this would save the 20% increase. So say one is eligible from 9th November (5 years - 28days), they can submit application on 3rd October and do Biometrics after 9th November, that is...

This query is now asked multiple times and daily here. The answer to this question has NO relevance to your qualifying period for ILR. The date you enter has NO bearing on your application whatsoever. So whatever date you put in does not really matter so I guess different rules depending on what IL...

Thanks. Got a question on the application form. Whats' the depth you go in answering the below questions: Do you have any family in your country of birth, nationality or any other country where you have lived for more than 5 years? - should this include parents, grandparents and in laws? Do you have...

Hi all,

For spouse SET(M) ILR, does the 28 day rule start from BRP issue date or date of first entry?

Senior Members/Mods, Can you please confirm the timelines given below In my case ( if you can check my timelines above) my date of application will be 56 days (not 28 days) prior to 5 years but Biometric appointment date w/ Super priority is planned within 28 days prior to ILR eligibility. Thanks :...

Increase in fees announced for October 4th . Hat-tip to @razergd1 for spotting it. Thanks for pointing out. So ILR is going up 20% to £2,885 and Super priority service by 25% to £1,000. SET(M) isn't eligible for Priority service is it - that stays at £500. Just my luck that spouse is eligible on th...

Hi, Have you heard anything from the high commission for the status of your passport. I am in the same boat. I applied on 24th May, Police verification was sent to Bangalore. My passport status was updated to Print initiated on 14th June. Since then I haven't heard anything yet. I am writing them m...

Any news on when the new increase in fees announced a couple of months ago is going to be implemented?

I found a Super Priority appointment at 2.30am on a Monday during May after having my application ready to submit for 3 weeks. Try at that time on a Tuesday after a Bank Holiday as well. By 7.00am they had disappeared. Good Luck!

Thanks, Interesting - they seem to be high demand!

What are people's recent experiences these days regarding getting super priority for SET (M) ILR? I did a dummy application and have been trying for a few days but only seeing standard service. I read the other thread about it not being easy to get super priority on these routes so wondering how peo...

My parents applied for a visit visa from Bangladesh on the 27th of June, Tuesday. Today is the 18th July, Tuesday. And, today it's going to be more than 3 weeks. In the UKVI website, it shows customer service agreement for this type of visa is 3 weeks. We didn't get any decision, also VFS website d...

While I can see it as fair for new arrivals, as they can...

So cost of ILR for one person to go roughly up by 20% to circa £2900 and super priority from within the UK to go up from £800 to £950 to match the cost from outside the UK. :| Unless I missed it there was no formal announcement of increasing the time frame to get to ILR was there notwithstanding the...

And increasing the Minimum Income Requirement to £26200 (it has been frozen at its current level of £18600 since its introduction in 2012). Gosh . yes its going to hit families pretty ...

So the PM has just announced visa fees and IHS to be raised "significantly".

Has anyone else read about UK government considering extending ILR route to 8 years? One of my mates mentioned it in passing but didn't have any links except a daily mail article which normally I wouldn't pay much heed to but you never know, given all the news about immigration recently. There have...

Hi Whats the rules regarding the British sponsor of a spouse visa moving abroad for a job while spouse stays back in the UK as their ILR is due in about a year? British Citizen can go and work anywhere they like. It doesn't affect the ILR application of the spouse resident in the UK. Provided that ...
