Our case worker took all our documents and picked out the ones he required.
He was pretty thorough and I suppose it also depends on the case worker you get and what kind of mood he/she is in?
JJ, You don't need to photocopy anything, they copy the documents they choose to use for the application. We arranged our documents in 3 folders, 2008, 2009 & 2010. Take plenty of proof of living together as they put great emphasis on this aspect of the application. Good luck when the big day arrive...
:D Happy to announce that the wife was successful in obtaining her ILR on SET(M) today. The basic procedure was as follows: 1. We arrived early - approx 30 mins before 11am appointment. 2. Security check - like an airport-approx 10mins 3. Basic application screening - took 10 mins. They check you ha...
I work for non UK based company but my salary is paid into a UK High street bank. Basically I work offshore on a 28/28 rotation, that is 28 days on & 28 days off. All my off time is spent in the UK and I have everything in order to prove co-habitation, i.e. Council tax bills, tennacy agreement, uti...
I am a British citizen from birth and my wife of 6 years is a foreign national. She is just about to complete her 2 year qualifying period and we are applying for her ILR on a SET(M) application. We have everything in place as regards documentation to provide the HO proof of marriage, co-habitation,...
Tim,
Got in touch with HO and they put me right. Have now got appointment at Croydon PEO on 17th March, within 28 days of my wifes 2yr anniversary of entry into UK.
I'm now "street legal"
Is it true that applying for ILR under SET(M) the emphasis is mainly on proving that you're still married and living together? I've been reading many threads on the forum dealing with different types of ILR applications and a lot of them seem to requiure details of financial history, i.e. payslips, ...
I was told over the phone by the HO that all appointment slots were booked at Croydon PEO up to the 7th April. Then low and behold I got an online booking for 17th March the same day :o I realise that you need a booking before the 14th March, but honestly keep trying, you might be pleasantly surpris...
Nomaps, Keep trying online, especially evenings between 6 & 8 pm. You will probably with a bit of luck get a booking? Alternatively call the HO for an appointment at any of the 6 UK PEO offices. Call at 8:59 am on the dot and you will get throught to a human being after about 5 minutes. Good luck an...

You should get a confirmation email with a ref number, don't know how long this takes, but if I were you I'd wait until receipt of this confirmation b4 cancelling your Cardiff appointment.
You could also call the HO and explain the situation, they should be able to sort you out over the phone
All, I called the HO today and got it from the "horses mouth" so to speak. In my case, my wifes application for ILR on SET(M) needs to be submitted 28 days (no earlier) before her 2 year qualifiying period ends. She entered the UK on 11th April 2008 so naturally her qualifying period ends on 11th Ap...
Thanks to all the good advice on this thread I've managed to hit lucky and get an appointment for w/c 15th March at Croydon PEO. It took a lot of patience and perseverance at different times of the day but eventually it paid off.
Let's hope the appointment goes smoothly?
Anybody got any advice on the best time of day to be online for when appointments are made available for SET(M) ILR? Seems that whenever I go online there are never any appointment slots available? I need to book an appointment for w/c 15th or 22nd March to put me within the 28 day window for applic...
Thanks Danbrix, Had a feeling this was the case. It's only 6 days outside the 28 day period, but I suppose it may as well be 6 weeks? Tried contacting HO by phone to verify but it's murder getting through to a human being. Tried re-arranging another appointment but nothing available.......yet????......
My wife was issued with a spouse visa (outside the UK) on 01 April 2008 and arrived in the UK on 11 April 2008. We have an premium service appointment at PEO Croydon for SET(M) ILR on 08 March 2010. Are we correct to attend this appointment as its within the 28 day period before expiry of her spouse...
