ILR in 10 years route

Hello,

I will be completing 10 years in the UK by March 2025.

I would like to know whether I need to seek assistance from an immigration consultant for my ILR application (assuming the process is complex), or if, based on previous experience of submitting visa applications on the gov.uk website, can someone complete it themselves.

My dependents’ visas are valid until July 2026. I hope that moving to ILR next month will not affect their visa status. Please confirm.

Is the "Life in the UK" test mandatory for someone who has lived in the UK for 10 years? I do not see it listed among the required documents after filling out most part of the application online.

Can ILR be applied for on a priority basis to receive a decision within a few days instead of waiting for months?

Regards,
Krishna

The process to apply using form SET(LR) is straightforward. You need to pass the life in the UK test. Super priority visa service is available. Your dependant visas remain valid until expiry, after you apply or when get ILR
