Apologise If I have missed something but this is straight from the Home Office site this monring, 'From 28 October there will also be changes to the way applicants for indefinite leave to remain are required to demonstrate their knowledge of the English language and of life in the UK.' http://www.uk...
The point one got to remember is earning 75 points is a step by step process. One key factor for this is earnings. Earnings are calculated for any consecutive 12 month period with in the immediate 15 month period before the date of the ILR application. So for example if one is applying for ILR in Ju...
Just a small comment, if you are going to Cardiff with Kids have proper arrangements to spend few hours. When I went in Jan it took them more than 5 hours to get a decision due to a IT failure. We ended up spending time in a nearby shopping mall. But as suggested if the weather is good you can go to...
Hi, I can understand the dissapointment as I had a similar situation at Cardiff in Jan thi year, They couldnt make a decison on the same day due to biometrics result werent coming through due to a system error and gave my document back saying they will call back whether I need to do iometrics again ...
As per the current rule since you entered UK with in 90 days from EC stamp date you can start counting your 5 years from your EC stamp date , in your casue which is 21/08/2008, Hope this helps, Some further reading for you regrding this, http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/documents/policy...
From my personal experience at Cardiff (End of Jan) they did check my appointment letter and didn’t let us in 30 minutes before the appointment time. My appointment was at 10am and I got there 9.15am with my wife and 1 year old son but still only allowed in the 30 minute window. Cardiff office is fa...
Similar thing happened to me at Cardiff in Jan end. But they called me very next day and said everything is fine. They said they personally call each applicant who couldn’t get a decision due to Biometrics error due to IT failure. But Cardiff being a small PEO I am sure they only had a hand full of ...

When my ILR was approved (month ago via PEO) letter didn’t explicitly say ‘ILR approved’ but said BRP will be sent 7-10 working days with reference number to each applicant (if u applied for any dependents). And received the BRP within 4 days, Guess that is the format for all the ILR approvals, ----...

Provided your ILR approve on the same day all your documents and passport will be returned that day itself. BRP card will take 7 to 10 days which you need for travel purposes anyway. People have had varied time lines for this but I received mine in 3 working days from PEO date, ---------------------...
I had a similar fine. It was 6 months before the ILR PEO appointment but I didn’t mention it and wasn’t an issue at all. It is your choice if you want to mention this but as far as I am aware a Bus lane fine which is paid on time is not a Criminal offense nor a civil penalty under UK Immigration act...
They ask for all original documents, do these include passports and biometrics cards? I am bit sceptical to send original passports and Biometrics unless it is a must,
Sorry to hear about ur situation, I was in a similar sitation at Cardiff PEO in Jan and it was due to an IT failuire (Biometrics result wasnt coming through), they couldnt give the approval letter but gave me all my documents back and a referencce number saying they will call me next day.I was very ...
My PEO was in Jan 13, If you look at the form Set(O), ‘Evidence of all work-related absences (including paid annual leave) is required from those applying under Tier 2 (Intra-Company Transfer);Tier 2 (General); Tier 2 (Minister of religion); Tier (Sportsperson); Tier 5 International Agreement, and p...
As a person who got ILR very recently I can share my knowledge and understanding on the matters you raised for the best of my ability. My case is very similar but only difference is I have been under HSMP and Tier 1 General. 1.A : I am not sure where you have seen this information. Are u from a NonE...
In general, if an individual arrived in UK with in 90 days from EC stamp date they can use that time as part of the 5 year stay. I know it is applicable for HSMP and Tier 1 General cases as I was a similar case. Please refer the below link; http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/documents/pol...
I am not trying to confuse anyone here but how come there is a gap between your HSMP expiry and new Tier 1 extension. HSMP expired19 Feb 2010 and Tier 1 from 13th March 2010, May be Typo in the original post……… ------------------------------------------------------ Info/Advice I provide is general i...
Hi, PCN Code 34 (bus Lane Contravention), This was around June last year(roughly 6 months before my ILR), There were no points taken for this and no inclusion in the counterpart. So I got the PCN from the council and paid with in 14 days and issue was done and dusted, I didnt bother getting a CRB as...
Hi, I had a PCN (Bus Lane Fine) which was paid on time an no court interverntion. I didnt mention this on my Set(O) but wasnt an issue and got my ILR, I did lot of research on this before application so if a PCN is paid on time with out any court interevention isnt required to mention and it will no...

If your case is straightforward I think it is possible to do it by yourself , I did it by myself thanks to this forum and guidelines given by HO. I initially contacted a Lawyer but I was given some information which was not in line with the HO guidelines. And if I listened to those I would not have ...
