ILR after 6 years DLR by PEO appointment

[bigdaddy82]

HI does anybody know what documents you need to send with the ILR form as my husband is due to send his in a few weeks but i can not find anywhere what they need
thank you

[mck2010]

I don't think there are set documents required for 6 years dlr to ILR. But you have to show life in the UK and ties, also you should show that the basis dlr was granted in the first place still persists so family life, no convictions etc. However if you look around the forum people who have successfully acquired ILR through dlr have posted documents they submitted

Yes we got there quite early did airport style screenings. Then we went upstairs for ticket (they wouldn't give you a ticket if you are more than 15 mins early for you appointment so we had to wait around) . My appointment was at 10:50, I got my ticket at around 10:45, I got called my number about 10 mins later. They give you a sheet that tells you everything that would happen on the day. The first counter books your document into the system then sends you to do biometric another wait for about 10 mins, after biometrics they ask you if you want to go coffee shop or leave then they'll call you, I chose coffee shop. This is where the real wait begins. I think I was in the coffee shop from 11:10 till my number was called at around 15:00 so about 4 hours. The sheet they give say they aim to reach a decision in 2.5 hours. So they call your number and hand your documents and tell you your card will be in the post in 7-10 days. Then done! You leave. No awkward questions, nice people, smooth day. The only thing is the wait can be nerve racking but i still think it's better than postal where
You can be waiting for months!!

congrats mck2000, just a few questions. Would be very grateful if yli can help
1-did you photocopy everything?
2-how much did you pay?
3-did you print all 80 pages of from set o?
4-any advice you can give, iam takimg mine in Sheffield in 4 weeks time.
Thank you and God bless

Yes I was asked at the biometrics booth if all my files were photocopies I said yes, they took all photocopies no originals.
I paid the old fees because I booked before the fee changed so I think it was 2375 previously
Yes printed all pages but only filled in what was applicable to me
Not really it was really straight forward no questions was asked. As long as your case is straight forward it should be fine. It really was a smooth day.

Many thanks, sorry to be a pain. How many years bank statements/60/payslips did you take?

Cheers

[mck2010]

6 months bank statements I think 1 year payslips I didn't have last April and march though as I had lost them but it seemed fine, and I took any p60s I could find i think one or two. My documents weren't great but dlr was given to me on family life so I took tenancy agreement with all of us on it, bills, and got friends and family to write support statement but
There aren't no set documents required for dlr to ILR just show how you've built you life in the UK

Hi all,
Can someone help me clarify a few things regarding my situation please.
I was given 3yrs DL after a failed asylum on 3/02/12
I renewed on time in 2015 precisely 15/1/15
I was granted further3yrs 0n 27/07/15
Now my question are
1. Can I apply for ILR 28days before 3/02/18
2. In the application form DL it states
" When does your limited leave to enter or remain expire? Please do not submit your
application earlier than 1 month before the expiry date of your current leave"
Does that mean I cannot apply for ILR when I complete 6yrs DL exactly.
3. Can I aIso use the premium service ?
4. If yes what form do I use? Form DL or Form Set(0)
Thank you all

[azharmahmood]

according to my knowledge you can apply within 28 days time, yes after completing 6 years of DL you can apply for ILR, you can use premium service and u will use set (o) form

Please correct me if i am wrong

[blessed24]

Thanks
really appreciated

Hi all, thought I shared my success. I applied for ILR yesterday (9/6/17) at PEO and was successful. In under an hour I was already told I was successful. In approx 90 mins I was on my way home.

[azharmahmood]

sorry for the typing issue with my keyboard

Congratulations, can you please let us know the exact documents you had submitted for this application. Thanks

[leonex4t5]

Supporting letter
International Passport
Two Passport photographs
Previous leaves (brp)
Proof of address (bank statement, council tax etc)
Proof of relationship with my British child (birth certificate, junior bond investment statement, letter from school explaining my role and contribution to my child's life, letter from child's mother).
Proof of employment ( payslips and employment letter)
Proof of benefit overpayment and receipts of payment back to the council.

The key document above was the letter from my child's school explaining that I'm playing a vital role in my child's life as this was the basis of my original grant.

Subject to any criminal issues, My suggestion to others is to strongly demonstrate that the circumstance prevailing at the time of previous grants is still the same.

Hi sorry to be a pain, just a quick question, got my first dlr on 4/07/2011, so my 6 years was on 4/7/2017, have I broken rules by not applying 28 days before 4/7/2017 or I can do it anytime as the my current dlr end oct 2017 ieven though I reached 6 years continuous dlr on 04/7/2017?. thanks

[leonex4t5]

You are able to apply for ILR from 06/06/2017 - end of Oct 2017. So whilst you have been eligible to apply since 06/06/2017 you haven't broken any rules. But you must apply before your leave expires.

Hope that helps.

Hi Everyone,

I am new to this forum but have read with interest the helpful advices/suggestions from forum members and moderators. I have one question and would be grateful for some guidance

I am due to apply for ILR after 6 years of DLR (2 x 3years). In both occasions of DLR being granted, I was given under the category of family life as I was living with my partner (who had ILR) and my daughter who is under 16years and British. My partner and I divorced last year and I was given custody of my daughter who is currently in a boarding being paid by me.

My question is will the fact that I am divorced affect my ILR application? or will the fact that I have responsibility of my daughter go in my favour?

Thank you

[leonex4t5]

As you have a significant relationship with your British child and playing a pivotal role (child lives with you, you are playing a role in her education and probably other things), you have a strong case.

thank u @leonex4t5, iam thinking of booking to go on tues next week,please advise which documents you took, I cant find any p60 but have printed self assessment alculations online covering 2013-2014,2014-2015, 2015- 2016.3 months payslips, 3 months bank statement, 2 years worth of bills for me and british wife, kids school reports,uni enrolment letters, wifes degree cert and masters enrolment,tax credits since 2014 letters, council tax bills. DO you think this will be enough?
thank you

[leonex4t5]

I'm not a lawyer but from the policy guidance all you have listed should suffice. I didn't use as much as you have listed but what's key is that you can demonstrate the relationship still exists and the intention is for it to continue and I think you will be fine from the perspective of proving relationship.
