Hi Guys,

Just Thought I'd add share my experience. Firstly, I thank God for receiving my ILR and also thank the seniors on this board (most of whom have already got their ILRs, Oluwa and the rest)

Anyway, i applied for ILR on 10 year basis
Appli sent: 6th Nov and rec'd by UKBA on7th Nov 09
Money debited 17th Nov and Acknowledgment 17th Nov
ILR received: 21 April

I must say the waiting especially after 4 months was very stressful. First 3 months was a breeze. I called the UKBA for the first time on Monday 19 April and was told by the lady that my application has not yet been completed. Oluwa and the others always said it was useless to call thats why I never called but i was fed up on monday. I did contact my MP about a month ago and she did inform UKBA that i needed to travel. But i had already been issued with the ILR on 1st March.
Anyway hope this is helpful. :D
