ILR Success Solihull SET(O) - 18th May
Posted: Sat May 19, 2012 10:32 am
Hi All,
First of all Thanks to everybody on this forum which helped me to get all the necessary guidelines for my ILR.
Mine was HSMP + Tier 1.
I have booked appointments online 6 weeks (42 days) earlier for 10 May 2012, Because of the Industrial strike, Solihull PEO office was closed on 10th May. Wasted £80 for hotel and train bookings for 10 may.
I have managed to book the appointment again for 18th may 2012 for 10:15 am at Solihull PEO. This time I did not book hotel and train in advance. I have booked train two days in advance from London Marylebone to Solihull, which cost £20 return for me and my wife each ticket £10.
Arrived at PEO at 9:15, they called me for security checks at 9:40 took 10 minutes; also they checked my application form is the latest valid form.
They called for our Token at 10:15; we went to the counter and submitted our application to caseworker. Case worker is very nice lady, She Approved my application in 15 minutes and asked to pay the fee in next counter and wait for biometrics. We paid fee at 10:30 and went to waiting room for biometrics. Biometrics were done by 10:50, they asked to go out and come back in 1.5 hours, I am back to PEO at 12:35; my application was ready to collect. They handover all my original document and approval Letters. Out of PEO by 12:40.
Documents Submitted for my application:
1. Passports and Tier1 BRP for me and my wife.
2. Life in UK Test Notification letters for me and my wife.
3. 12 months pay slips and 12 months bank statements.
4. Current Year P60.
5. Cohabitation Documents
a. Tenancy agreement for last 2 years (on my name my wife)
b. Current Year joint account Bank statement.
And Photo copies of all above documents.
I had lot of document with me for last 5 years, but CW only asked above documents.
Thanks
YVR.
