ILR Application -Query related to Criminal case

Hi
I have completed 10 years tenure in UK through ICT reputed company and eligible for applying ILR. How ever my wife has made false complaint in India 4 years back (criminal case as per Indian law) which is still under investigation under court and this will lead to divorce proceedings. Case is still un proven and investigation in progress further in court. Due to COVID conditions this might take more longer time when the case would be resolved .

I need a moderator advise whether this situation will impact my ILR application or any other suggestions before I file the ILR.

thank you.

This has no relevance to your ILR

probably I should add more detail to the above information - case filed is section 498 a in India which is criminal case which is still open and need to go to court when they call for hearing ofcourse it will lead to divorce proceeding

Can you please advise whether it will make any difference between ILR or British Citizenship. There are few other posts saying high risk of applying and get rejection in case of naturalization :-( :cry: .. with an open case in India

Can you please clarify as situation making :cry:

Naturalisation is a different process entirely. Grant of citizenship is fully at the discretion of the home office as they can refuse you for any reason they see fit.

This however has NOTHING to do with your ILR application

No you cannot. If you leave the UK while an application is pending, the application will be considered withdrawn and you lose your fee.

great thanks for letting me know.
Is there any possibility for me to change the Application service to Priority service now by paying additional amount considering the situation ( I have already submitted the application , uploaded documents. and Biometrics is scheduled for 6th Sept).

You would have to withdraw the application and apply again and hope you get the super priority option. You would have to pay the fee again too as refunds can take up to 6 weeks.

Once you have submitted and paid, you cannot change the application or pay extra for priority.

You will have to continue to check till you get priority service. You may want to check this in the night.

Hi
Thanks for all your guidance . I have with drawn the old application before Biometrics and applied a new application on Super priority service. Decision has been made and approved finally . my BRP will be couriered shortly.

I need another help . I have submitted Online with drawl form for Old application and got a evidence of record number for with drawl. When do you think I can get my refund or how do I know status of refund as its more than 10 days . Is there anything else I need to do.

Also in what way I would get refund , will it be a cheque or Back to credit card ?

Refund is said to be automatic however if after 6 weeks not received, you may have to contact HO

Also in what way I would get refund , will it be a cheque or Back to credit card ? Back to card used for payment.
