Applying ILR - list of documents to provide?

[rengasakthi]

Hiya,

I am planning to apply for ILR in the month of Aug so I would like to know what all the documents I need to provide along with the application form?

I was in Work Permit for te first 19months, and after that I am on Tier1(General) until now. And have passed the Life in the UK test last week.

I was just going though the "SET(O) Guide.pdf" but it didn't say anything about the points I need to score for Age, UK Experience, Salary, Qualification, does this mean I do not need to meet the points, I.e., I can apply for ILR as long as I have completed 5years?

Do I need to maintain any minimum fund in my bank account for the last 3 or 6 months?

Can you help me here please?

Age: you will get the same points as you claimed in your first grant (Tier-1) and you don’t need to provide any more evidence for it.

UK Experience: you will atomically get 5 points as long you are claiming previous earnings in UK.

Qualification: Same as age, you can claim the same pints as you did in your Tier-1 and don’t need to provide any evidence for it (provided you are relying on the same degree).

Salary: You need score enough salary points for 12 consecutive months out of last 15 months.

Thanks Sage.

Is there any minimum fund I need to maintain in my account, if so for how long and how much should I maintian?

[linkers]

At the moment, there is no maintenance funds requirement for ILR.

[rengasakthi]

Ok.

Also how much total points I should have for applying for PR?

[linkers]

It depends when did you get your first grant. It would be either 75 or 80 points.

[rengasakthi]

OK.

I got my first TIER1 VISA was on Mar-2009, and then got extended on Aug-2011.

Which document these details are mentioned, I was going through the guide document, and the form, no where its mentioned about the min points I should score unless I missed it.

Thanks for your reply so far.

I just posted a thread about this - does one need to show P60s for the past 5 years? I've seen people list this in their documents, but can't see in the application for Tier 1 General that they are required. I have everything else ready so will go to the post office in the next 2 hours if I don't need them (don't have them, so waiting on HMRC letter)!
