Hi Guys

I have a quick query:

I am applying @ PEO(Face 2 Face) for ILR in June 2014 and my Pakistani passport expires in December 2014

so at the time I should have 6-7 passport validity - hope this is not a problem ???

Can someone please help

Thanks

It is ok. You will not face any issue. I got my ILR (at Croydon PEO) on 10th Feb 2014 and my passport validity was around 6 months.

It has to be valid at the time of application. UKBA issues biometric card that is why they don't bother for more than 6 months passport validity for ILR.

It is fine. Don't worry. If you wish you can double check with UKBA Croydon PEO by calling them.
