Thanks Bruteforce, Casa, Vinny and CR001. Thank you everybody who has ever written a single line of word in this forum. @Casa: as pointed out by Bruteforce and Vinny, I varied to this application from FLR(FP) hence my payment of the IHS.
Quick Timeline:
Student visa from beginning till refusal in 2009. (Followed by appeal refusal, reconsideration refusal, and then a fresh, successful Tier4 Student visa application and a successful PSW application)
T1Entrepreneur visa from 2013 to 2016 September (at this time short of ILR qualifying period by 69 days).
My and my wife's initial FLR(FP) Private Life application was made in September 2016.
December, I varied mine to SET(LR) and for my wife, I submitted another FLR(FP) - this time, she is the main applicant.
This morning, I went to the post office and collected my docs, including my passports, Masters degree cert, LIUK 'cert' and most 'eye-catchingly', my ILR approval letter .
From variation to approval took 3.5 months.
Thanks very much. This forum has been a huge help to me and my family since 2012 in my immigration journey. I think the HO still has loads of ILR in the basket. Keep calm, keep right and take charge. Once again, thank you. New life, here we go!
