FLR(FP) Application time

[Tatso1]

Hie everyone. My timeline is as follows. I applied together with my 12 year old daughter on the basis of her having 7 years continuous residence here.
Application submitted online on 31 October 2019
Biometrics done at Croydon 8 November 2019
Leave granted 27 November 2019
Decision letter received 29 November 2019
Biometric Resident Permits received two hours later on the 29th of November 2019
All the best to everyone

Wow that was super quick!! Was it first time or an extension? Good Luck

Hie Shooroma. Yes it was my first time. My story is as follows :
We( me and my daughter) came here in 2010 on a tier 1 dependent visa. As a spouse and daughter respectively. We renewed the visa in 2012 in a different category, as tier 4 dependents. In 2014, 2 weeks before my now ex husband was due for ILR, he decided to file for divorce and inform home office. I also confirmed the development and my visa was refused. I appealed against the decision and the judge was kind enough to allow the appeal outside immigration rules, simply based on the fact that my daughter still wanted to see her dad who had just obtained his ILR even if we were going through a divorce... We got our leave outside of immigration rules which expired 4 November 2019. By then we did not qualify for the 7 year rule as we had been here only 6 years. At the beginning of the appeal we were only 4 years but the case dragged on due to backlog at the tribunal and it took us to 6 years.... So this application is the first flr fp application one under the 7 year immigration rule as my daughter has now been here for 7 years continously. And we got the visa in under 4 weeks from start to finish.. I would like my story to inspire somebody as l don't know your story but there is always light at the end of the tunnel!!

Hi Nehag

I am an overstayer and i am trying to get married to my partner in the uk. How did you go about it that they allowed ypu to get married in the uk. My problem is home office is holding my passport so i dont have any proof of identity ro take to the registry.

Hi everyone, i have been reading the posts for a long time. I just applied for the flr fp as a married partner. I am a overstayer but we were allowed to get married by home office without any interview. But I need to report to immigration center every month. What are my chances of getting approved ? I have also done my English test .

Hi everyone, I applied(FLR FP) on 15.10.2019. Went for biometric appointment to Croydon on 24.10.2019 (spent 3 hours there ).
they requested more bills to cover a 2 years period of me and my partner living together, my solicitor didn't mention that to us she said they need bills for the last 6 months only, luckily I have the documents and I will send them tomorrow .

I will keep you updated .

Hi everyone, today I got my GRANT OF LEAVE TO REMAIN 10 years route, I'm still in shock lol .I thought it will take a long time but I was wrong, can't tell you how happy and relieved I am right now, after a long hard 15 years I got my freedom at last ,I pray for you all to get a positive outcome to your applications .

[AmazonianX]

Congratulations on your freedom hayats.
As per your previous post and presuming that was the sole reason for the hassle you went through , I am really concerned about some solicitors who are supposed to be points of solutions to people's problems in their area of law specialization being the or causing further problems.
Is there a way they are he'd accountable I. E. Being sued, refund of the fees they billed clients or sanctions by oisc?

Hi midas22 I gave a notice of marriage to a register before I submitted my application to home Office since I had my passport with me i was able to register my marriage. If your passport is with home office then you need to ask them certified copy of your passport I think .

Thank you, you are right I got a lot of misleading information from them that waisted a lot of my time and money .

Hello Eledumare,
Pls what documents did you submit for both your fee waiver and flr application?
And did you do it yourself or used a lawyer
Thanks

Yea I sent it off online yesterday. I have an appointment on the 30th to go do my biometric and present my documents.

I am currently trying to gather enough documents so I don’t get a refusal.

Hi,
Did you manage to send your application?

Thank you. Do you remember the documents you sent with your FLR FP application as I’m doing the parent route.

Pls help me with a list if you can remember.

Thank you

Also try and include your hospital letter when you gave birth and also if you have any letters from hospital or clinic for your child.

[Eledumare]

These where the documents I submitted for my fee Waiver and application.

I have attached a file.

In my case I also printed off pictures of my son and 1, I included his birth certificate,and every other documents listed in the file I attached.

I didn’t use a lawyer, I did it myself with the help of a charity.

Hope it helps

Hello Eledumare,
Pls what documents did you submit for both your fee waiver and flr application?

Hi Auk333,

Personally, I would give them another couple of weeks . You start counting from the day you receive your written determination from the judge and home office has 14 days to appeal the decision ,I think they are allowed a few extra days on top of the 14 days for them to still lodge an appeal but in your case I think they are now very much out of time and it very unlikely they will appeal as you have not heard again from the court so its just a matter of waiting and the Home office will soon write to you informing you of your grant.

Good luck

Hello everybody I am glad everything is done now I got my brp but I am sure on some point we will have to see again this all home office hassle. I start working and also applying for jobs and getting very good response.some places they asking about my 5 years employment history which I don’t have it at all.
The reason of my post is for those who is still waiting for their outstanding applications.dont lose hope and you will definitely get positive outcome.
A warning to all of you please don’t go to any fake solicitors etc before you going to anyone make sure you go to the law society website and check their details also go to google review and other review places check it and then go to the lawyer. Before lawyer submitting your application make sure on the spot you get the full file copies for your self and and for your record mostly they keep the scan copies.before submitting your application through the lawyers you should do your own research as well.
Once again thank you very much to all of you for your good wishes and support specially from bathanza and everyone

Hi Auk333
During you appeal did you use a legal representative or you did it yourself. Am really struggling because my solicitor is requesting a lot of money for me and am not working. I need your suggestion please.

[Quince 2]

Secondly please which is the best way for applying for an appeal by post or online. I have been reading all the comments on this page which is really helpful. Who knows any designated register office for marriage notification because the home office are with my documents please.
