ILR/FLR Success at PEO Sheffield

[sshanmug]

Hi Folks,

I went to ILR at PEO Sheffield, with following documents

[b]General documents[/b]
Filled in SET O application form
Passport
2 photos
[b]Evidence of continuous residency & Life in the UK[/b]
Life in the UK test pass letter
P60 for 5 years
HMRC Tax Calculation Sheet for 5 years
Company Incorporation certificate
VAT Registration certificate
Appointment Report from Companies House
[b]UK Absences[/b]
Client Letters for Business Absences
Letter from Employer for Business Absences
[b]Evidence of funds[/b]
Last 3 months bank statement. No fixed amount maintenance is required
[b]Points based criteria[/b]
Tier 1 Extension Approval Letter from Home office
Copy of Degree Certificate
Letter from Accountant
Payslips for 12 months
Dividend vouchers for 12 months
Banks Statements for last 12 months showing Salary and Dividend payments

Since my business absences were close to 400 days, there were not able to make a decision on same day. It went to senior case worker for approval and I got the decision after 10 days.

Also, I entered UK after 2 months of granting Entry Clearance. This is disregarded. Upto 90 days is acceptable by UKBA for counting the 5 year period.


Today I went for my wife's FLR (M) application. (Sheffield PEO)

My wife spent 1 years and 4 months with me in UK and hence she is not eligible for PR. She has to apply for FLR M with the following documents

We were out by 12 30 PM. The case worker told that as per new FLR M rules, my wife will have to complete 5 years for settlement but as she already spent more than a year, they may consider her case after 2 years(in another 6 months time) for granting ILR. It means that though the rules are in place, the case worker can view individual cases with different angle and come up with decision favour to us.
