Hi, I am applying for UK ILR 10Year Long Residency. I want to opt for Priority service but I am unable to see it when I am on choose service page, it is not showing priority service. I was told I can try around midnight so that the priority service option is shown. I am trying for the last 4 days but with no success. Any updates to 10Year Long residency ILR services or alternate suggestions anyone?

We cannot tell you what UKVI can offer at each moment. That depends on their capacity. The priority service is very sought after, UKVI will only offer it if they manage the applications

Thank you for your reply. I am trying to book for Super Priority Service for my Long Residence ILR application for more than 10 days now. But still, it is not showing me a super-priority appointment option. As per the UKBA website, Super Priority Service should be available. Does anyone know if the super-priority appointment for Long Residence ILR is still open or they have cancelled it?

UKBA does not exist. The service has not been cancelled. The new slots are released at 1 AM. Try to book late at night

1am London time? I just booked one (Set M 5 year though) yesterday at 1:01am.
If you see nothing just after 1:00am you probably aren't able to use it and might as well go for standard.

Yes, I am trying 1 AM London time and mine is the Set(LR) application. But no luck for super-priority appointments yet.

Then you should go for standard service

Hi,
I have recently completed my SET (LR) application and it is taking me to payment page. I'm planning to book priority service, however, the payment page is only asking for the actual charge of £2400. Do I need to pay the £2400 1st and then proceed to the next page and pay £800 for super-priority.
Thanks for the help.
Regards,
Thiliban

Hello otam29,
I’m planning to submit my set LR via super priority service.
Did you get the priority service ?
Have you waited until 28 days before your 10 year completion and started the set Lr application ?
It looks Like we have to keep trying for few days or weeks patiently until the option available for priority service ? In that Case can we start our application atleast 2 or weeks earlier than 28 days and keep trying for supper priority service , but book the biemtric to fall within 28 days time window, I Hope this way it saves some time ?
Regards
Rud
