Hi I am not an expert but I will try to answer if you do not mind, and hope an expert or guru will correct me if am wrong,Tek75 wrote:Hi All,
I am about to apply ILR under 10 years long residence.I have been on student visa throughout.I am hoping to get answers to the following queries regarding SET (O) form:-
Query 1: Question 6.3 of SET (O) asks"What evidence has been provided to support the reasons for all absences from the UK?" Do I have to answer this part?If so with what other evidences apart from passport?
Query 2:Question 7.11 asks "how long you have lived in the UK"?I am into my 10 years and 18 days , so do I write 10 years 01 month here?
Query 3:Is it ok if I exclude all the pages of section 2 (Dependant), 5 (home & finances) and 9 (Tier 1 Points Scoring Assessment) from my completed application form?
Query 4:Would it be beneficial to include one or two important pages of the SAR file with the application.If so, is it necessary to mention them in the documents checklist page of SET O form under "other documents"?
I hope if all my queries are answered by experts it will help other ILR (10 years)applicants too.
Thanks in advance.
I had the same issue concerning my arrival date back in 2004 so I checked the departure date from my country and as I arrived here next day so I wrote down that date and asked them to refer on the relevant page of the passport on covering letter.Consider time difference between your country and the UK and journey time (departure and length) to see the exact date although it does not really matter if you make an honest mistake by writing wrong arrival date as long as you are within the absence threshold.Tek75 wrote:Thanks for the suggestions Graceford.
Under question 6.2 I need to write the dates of absence from and return to UK.Now, I found out that Heathrow Immigration did not put an arrival stamp in my passport after my first holidays spent back at home.I have only the departure date from my home country.What arrival (at heathrow)date should I write in this case?
As I don't have old air tickets, will my assumed date of arrival at Heathrow after my first holiday,be acceptable?
As far as I know solicitors do not need to be registered with OISC , they are normally members of SRA, I applied myself without the help of solicitor or representatives but with the great help of this forum.Tek75 wrote:Thanks again Graceford.
Just a curiosity.Some people apply through solicitors (firms) who are not OISC registered(you know there is a space to write OISC regi no in the SET O form.Is it ok if such a solicitor(non oisc) represent the application even though my case is quite straight forward.
I enrolled for bio metric on 3rd December 2012 and now waiting patiently.Tek75 wrote:It is good to know that an applicant can write his own covering letter on a separate page.how long have you been waiting for the ILR after the BIO?If you have applied recently.
