Hello, I applied for ILR at Croydon PEO yesterday (8th Nov). After having a look at my document, the case worker declared that the biometric system has crashed (Having heard similar stories on this forum, it came as no surprise!). The case worker held back my documents and said that if the system wi...

Congratulations priya26. I will be applying at Croydon PEO tomorrow. I am on Tier 1 and run a limited company. Could you please tell me about the employer letter? Was it required because salary slips were unattested printouts? I don't have one and I think it’s too late to get one now. Is it mandator...

Thanks sushdmehta.

Regrading point2 - I am applying 28 days before the date of visa stamping, so technically I haven't completed 5 years of stay. Hence my question.

Thanks.

Hi,

Could someone kindly help.

Moderators

May I please make this a separate topic? I don't think this is getting enough eyeballs as it is buried deep below an old discussion.

Thanks.

Hello All, I am filling in the SET (O) form and will require your kind help with a couple of questions: 1. Page 11, Question 5.3: I draw salary and dividends from my limited company and they add up to a different figure each month. I believe I should put the average figure here (e.g. If I am claimin...

Hi All, I am documenting my absences from UK and have not been able to find some of the entry/exit stamps on my passport. Couple of questions in this regard: 1. Do they put exit stamps in Canada or only entry stamps (like UK)? I can find the entry stamps in my passport but not the exit stamps. 2. If...

I had a similar issue with Halifax. I showed them a letter that said "We know that this request is being made for visa purposes and that in the absence of these statements the customer's visa might be refused leading to a black mark on the customer's immigration history, an adverse remark in his pas...

Thanks all.

It seems Cardiff is a no-go.

Are all other PEOs fine with limited company directors?
I know Glasgow doesn't like them...any others?

Thanks a lot for all your help.

Many thanks linkers.

The post gives conflicting information - while some were told Cardiff can't handle such cases, Peacock4 was fine.

I guess I will have to call/email them to confirm.

Hi,

I am a director of my limited company. I will be applying for ILR in November at Cardiff PEO.

Just wanted to check if Cardiff PEO deals with cases like mine (limited company directors)?

Many thanks.

Thanks all for your kind responses.

Hello, I entered UK on a Work Permit (date of stamping 5th Dec 07, date of entry 5th Jan 08 ) and currently I am on Tier 1 visa valid until 27th May 2014. In my understanding, since I arrived within 3 months of visa stamping, I will be able to apply for ILR 28 days before the fifth anniversary of vi...

Thanks a lot linkers. I looked at the calender and the dates till 7th November can be selected (while dates beyond 7th Nov are 'disabled'). Hence I thought that I can book upto three months in advance. Thanks for clarifying that its 6 weeks not three months (wonder why the dates are not disabled bey...

Hello, I have to book an appointment for early November and have been trying for days now. I keep getting an error message stating that there has been a technical fault. (I can understand if it says there are no slots but it only says that there has been an error). Could someone please confirm if th...

Hi Linkers, Is the 90 day rule applicable only when the visa is coming to an end? My visa is valid till 2014. I complete 5 years of visa stamping in December 2012 and 5 years of entry into UK in Jan 2013. Could you help me understand when I will become eligible to apply - 28 days before visa stampin...

That's true greenie. (There is a reason why you are a Guru and I am a junior member!)

Hi, I received my Tier 1 extension approval letter dated 27th March on 29th March. The letter said that I should receive my biometric card within 7 to 10 working days. When I didn’t get the cards till 12th April, I wrote to them. The response says that I should wait for another 3 to 7 working days. ...

Hi All, I received my passport and documents last Thursday. The Home Office letter said that the visa has been extended, however I have still not received my biometric card. I called DX Courier at 0844 371 0000. They said they don't have anything for me. Just wanted to check what are the usual timel...

Yes you can.
I did my biometrics at Earl's Court post office on a Saturday.
The post office is open till 12:30 but you have to reach there by 11.

Oops! Off course I meant internet. Greenie is right, post office website had a list of POs that would participate from 10th April but it has been removed now, hence I suggested searching on internet (there was a glitch in an upgrade they did last week to the biometric software at these new post offi...

From 10th April a number of new post offices will be added to this list. If you search on the intranet you might find the new list (it has approx. 100 post offices). May be you will find a suitable one. Fortunately or unfortunately, none of these post offices suite me due to my location where I am b...

2 dependants - wife and 15 month old daughter.

I was able to submit biometrics at a post office for myself and my dependants.

Hi gprao2010, For the cases that I mentioned (father was the main applicant and mother’s name was given as responsible adult), the biometric letter said ‘No responsible adult found’ and the bar code could not be scanned. It can be a coincidence that in both the cases a dependant (and not the main ap...
