Folder 2 – Certificate of Fixed Deposit of Indian Rupees 2150000 held in Bank of India (equivalent to £____ as per today’s exchange rate on www.oando.com) and a letter from Bank of India to confirm it is disposable in the UK at any time at my request.

You don't need to send this again, and a lot of documents irrelevant.

Could you be specific about other irrelevant documents please? Many thanks

Lot of extra documents that I tried to highlight. Your call whether to attach them or not.

ILR does not need maintenance funds, so that entire section other than payslips is possibly irrelevant.

You need business bank statements/letter from Bank for your "engaged in business activity" evidence.

There is no genuine entrepreneur test for ILR, this is only for initial applicant and for extension application...they will ask any documents if they find any gaps in your papers

Incorrect. Genuine entrepreneur test applies to all initial, extension and ILR stages :!: :!:

I think they've forgotten to include the genuine entrepreneur test part in the ILR section of the guidance. However, the set (o) application form as well as the caseworker guide clearly mentions this.

Hi Kay, thank you. I sent my application on 13/03/18 and after that, I received two "under consideration" emails - one in April and one in May around the 20th. This month I didn't receive any email probably because they had come to a decision already. I received my approval letter today but is dated the 18th.
