There was no requirement until 5th Jan 2013... to attach any Life in U.K test for applying settelment through protection route... Precisely people who were granted 5 year limited leave under Refugee or Humantarian Protection.........

The only time you will Life in U.K or ESOL will be when applying your nuetralization as a British Citizenship....

I hope it answers your question, the application form for this catogery also doesn't requires it. Therefore I am confident to say there is no such requirement to date.
But end of the day I am not qualified please feel free to check with any qualified immigration lawyer by all means.

Thanks.

Olazh and shir_e_mashriq Wel Come to immigration board. We are all passenger of the same boat but unseen each other anywhy I am not legal expert but honesty i will do my best for each member of the board and think same thing and whises from the boards member our immigration ctg is very complicated caz in my opinian 50/50 i mean good and bad for example Good thing set p is fee free application, and don`t need life in the uk test or citizenship test, and bank statement or payslip any tex or insurance contrebusation this is good thing but the bad thing is that set p is not allowed to do the same day oppinment, that is why you must wait untill the home office approve it take more then 6 month if you give few hundered pounds to home office other ctg then your application will decided in the same day but other waitting long time i will be updated if I am lucky and received my ILR next week
ok thank you for couments
Best whises

Does anybody know if the changes 13 Dec 2012 affected SET Protection route applicants?

And now many days are we allowed to be out of UK in 5 years?

[evointheuk]

I had difficulty registering to this website, It took me couple of day before I found out that the entry for signature should have been filled, so anyone seeing this, please make sure you write something in the gap for signature..

1 . First of all I don't think there are any changes announced with respect to set protection route applicatns on 13th Dec 2012. As far as my best knowledge is concerned.

2. The second part of your question what I have understood is ... " How many days are allowed for a refugee stay outside of U.K in 5 Years?"
If this is what you meant. Then my understanding from the form is, each time they have asked you how many days you been outside of U.K. At the same box, they have also asked you what was the reason of your visit and was it to a country you sought protection from ?"

So my understaning is as long as your outside visites from U.K have reasonable justficiation . As for holidays, family visits , business visits, employment reasons they don't mind ...... As long as number of visits are not alarming any bell about your intention of visits and your permenet residence is based in U.K.


The officer need to be satisfied that your visits were geniune and reasonable. Please correct me if you find any information which diffiers from my point of view.

As I have said so many times earlier I am not Qualified in U.K Immigration Law. Any opionion I have stated is based on my littel understanding. Please always check with a qualified immigration lawyer before taking any step.

Doodo did you say that you have applied back july last year and you did not get any response yet, then why don't you call the immigration line and ask them to provide the update of your application because you have passed their specified time line.

I am still in confusion to understand how the UKBA Liverpool pc WORKING for the cases, I am still waiting a decision as I stated before I did apply on 24 August 2012, received biometric 18 October, enrolled my biometric on 24th October and since that I did not hear any thing though I have sent a letter to the UKBA.

I will update you if i get any thing, please keep updating because as long as we aware of each other as it will help the moral of every one.

I hope every one of us will receive a positive decision.

Hi Guys,

I have been following your threads and responses for a long time.
I have applied recently for ILR (SET P)
application submitted : 20/12/2012
Application Recieved : 21/12/2012

I know it is a lengthy and daunting process, but one has to be patient
I guess the good news is the majority of people in this forum got their ILR at the end.

No you don't have to send life in the uk test off for ILR BECAUSE they didn't ask for that. I didn't send mine. U only send that when u apply for citizenship
Good luck

I called them today and they told me all they can see on the system is "processing application" and nothing else !! they told me I need to wait.

I don't know what to do and why is it delayed? could it be for the fact I have dependant (wife) which I did not have on original application ?

[tab0287]

hi guys. I think the delays due to Christmas, though a bit worried. In 1 week time it is gonna be 3 months passed from my biometrics. I am chasing the postman everyday.

Doodoo I also have a dependent whom I have not included in my original app. It might be one of the reasons for our case to take longer, maybe.

Hello guys
This thread is not only very informative but it also keep me posted a little bit on how many other people are also eagerly waiting for their ilr
I submitted my application on the 26th of September (leave was expiring around the end of October 2012 , got biometrics done on 7th of November and haven't heard from them since then . Just bearly bearing with the patience , but hopefully sun will shine soon . It's for me and my family though I hope they don't take that long . I wanted to ask one very important question related to a recent post within the thread about not getting your travel document back ? Because I spoke to one of the UKBA colleague recently and they said you should get your travel document back with ilr on it , unless the "travel document is expired" , and I also told them that the llr is expiring which is the reason I am applying for ilr , they still Said you'll be getting your travel document back , is it true that I will be ?anyone with such issue solved please let me know as it would be very kind of you , as I really don't want to apply for travel document again .

Wanted to also congratulate on everyone who got their ilr .
I hope I hear a response from them soon , I also had a solicitor who handled the application and like biometrics letters everything will get posted to him I guess :/ . Oh well , I keep praying
Peace all

Thankou for your response mirna
i cant believe i'll have to apply for a new travel document , its another 2 months after ilr wait. because usually they just put it in your existing passport/travel document dont they?

[Peterpan81]

If you were issued with a different residency permit not in the form of LLR as a Refugee, then you would get the new extension on your passport; however recently this has also changed after the Home Office moved using the BRP cards, so in short all Residents in the UK will have a BRP card rather than a sticker on the passport.

Hope this helps.

[mirna]

407004, yes i understand is another waiting again but u know 2month is ok ithink becoz my aunty with limited leave to remain is waiting for 9month now and a friend is waiting for 6 month no reply

[babe_khyber]

[doodoo2012]

I made a mess with the biometric and I think this could be another reason. Although I did not miss my dead line, but I did my biometric and my wife's biometric did not come so I rang them and they sent after 4 weeks another invitation for her. After she did her biometric by one week we both received another invitation so I decided not to call again and just re do biometric again.

if we work it from the last biometric, it has been 8 weeks.

[evointheuk]

Is this the most time taking application to process in the world?? just saying
