SET(O) ILR form updation

[ginish]

Hi Experts,

While filling the ILR set(O) form for my dependent wife(I already have ILR), we tried be smart and in the absence from UK section, where it asks for the return dates, we entered the previous dates as to the one's in the passport. Eg; if the return date in passport shows a stamp on 04/07/2015, I entered 03/07/2015. We thought it is asking for the away time, because on the date it is stamped in passport as arrived, we are present in the UK that day. Now I realized that, it should be the actual return dates which we should be entering in the return date.

The application is completed online. The appointment to submit documents is on 14th October 2019. I checked the online application and there is no way of correcting it. Can you please guide me to the right direction. Should I cancel the application and redo it? How can I cancel it? I have taken the super priority service, will I loose that £800 if I cancel the appointment?

What do you mean by smart?
Did you do the same for the entry date as well? They’ll check anyways and figure it out. You are probably not the first person who over thought to write the dates that way. I don’t think you need to do anything. Hardly a reason for them to refuse you. For ur peace of mind:
Print the absences page from paper set o form.
Fill in the exact leaving and entry dates. They already know to count in between those dates.
Write a cover letter that you made a mistake in filling out the absences due to misunderstanding.
Upload it with mandatory documents at time of biometrics or if ur scanning and uploading your self then any time before ur sopra appointment

Thanks Aman for the quick reply. I will fill the Set(O) paper form page and upload it with a cover letter.

I did that mistake only on return dates.

My wife is applying as main applicant, as I am already settled. Do she still need to show cohabitation documents in joint names for two years? The checklist we got doesn't have any address proof requirements.

Do we need to show different types of documents for two years? Is it required for every 4 months period?
We only got bank statement in Joint names. Is there any other way of showing it, like two documents from same month with same address but in different names etc.?

You would need cohab docs of three types spanning two years but not necessarily in joint names.. I don’t remember what others have done. Search this forum or google the question and you’ll be linked to others answers

As mentioned shouldn't be too worried just put it on cover letter and upload it.

Regarding cohab documents you can use any letters to same address and same months like HMRC,Gp etc utility bills
