Hi guys,
i have applied for ILR almost 2 months back. I understood from this forum that new process is taking 6 to 8 weeks for normal ILR application.
Is there a way to get latest status on my application? Online or by phone?
Also is there a way to convert this application to super priority by paying 800 pounds?

here is my timeline:

Applied for ILR Route : Set (O) [standard application from tier 2 dependent visa]
Date application sent : 09/07/2019 l(online)
Document received by HO : n/a
Ack letter received (if applicable) : n/a
Biometric Letter received : n/a
Date Biometrics Enrolled : 20/07/2019 : Saturday 3pm in croydon.
Payment Debited : n/a
Approval/Refusal Received : waiting
BRP Card Received : waiting
HO Letter Received: waiting

As far as i know there is no way to convert it to super priority once you've paid and submitted.
Other members (including myself) have used this site to check (using your current BRP): https://www.gov.uk/prove-right-to-work

I don't think there is a way otherwise to track application status unless your SLA period has elapsed (6 months in your case) and you contact the Home Office directly to escalate.

You cannot check the status of your application. The standard timeframe for ILR application is 6 months. Wait to hear back

For Tier 1, very few had their decisions in like 10 weeks but no one in 6 weeks since new system is introduced.
