ILR SE(M) SUCCESS CROYDON

[benjy]

Hi All,

My wife was granted her ILR today at Croydon PEO.
our appointment was 09.30 and we arrived at 08.30.
We went straight in and the guy checked our documents and after that told us to go upstairs to pay.
We then was given a peice of paper and told to wait for your number to be called.
At 09.10 our number was called even though we was early.
The guy behind the counter asked for our application form and passports.
Then asked for our letters of evidence.
Then he sortet them out and gave us back the ones he never wanted.
Then went away for a couple of mins and came back and told us to come back in an hour and half.
After an hour we came back and waited only 10 mins and our number was called. A very nice lady said well done to my wife you have been granted ILR
and we can go home.
I thought WOW i was never asked for my Bank Statenments something i have been dreading about because we have no avings at all. We do have jobs though.
I do claim Child benefit as well which they never even asked me about.

We took along 56 letters addressed to each of us.(not many in joint names)
LUK pass cert
6 months bank statements and pay slips (never asked for)

Just like to say thank you to all who give me advice and please feel free to ask me any questions about my PEO experience.

CHEERS.
