I intend to transfer ILR to new passport. Original ILR is on a ISD. Does anyone here have experience in waiting times for postal applications? The same day premium service is almost 3 times the cost of postal. Any timelines? I understand that I'll now get a BRP card.

Deception when detected may lead to a 10 year ban. Before you apply it would be advisable to use an experienced immigration solicitor for advice.

Hi there im in need of some help, i have found out that a family member is appealing againist the home office decision and he is waiting for his hearing. Ive been writing for years regarding this individuals activities and yet they did nothing to remove him but they did deny him his student visa wh...

I requested mine last year and after 60 days with no files recieved, I sent an email to my MP who asked the home office to speed it up. They sent it after 2 weeks of MP letter. When files arrived it showed they only processed it after he made contact. Contact your MP soon as they're about to leave o...

I finally got mine and my children's files 3 months late. I got my MP to send a letter to the homeoffice 2 weeks ago and they arrived with an apology about the delay. Thanks everyone who shared their experience about SAR delays.

That's after my request! If they don't send them by end of week, will contact mp. Thanks for info anyway. I've already got indefinate leave but need all my info for my children to keep if they decide to take up British citizenship.

Hi all, I've been searching for this but couldn't find a similar post... My ILR is still under appeal (won in first tier, but the HO appealed). I've now decided to marry my partner and would need a certified copy of my passport from the HO. No-one seems to be able to say where and how I can obtain ...

This is really crazy. Targeting a parent with a disabled child simply because they are a soft touch and can easily make up the numbers for immigration figures of deported cases. I urge all those with cases that have human rights and section 55 issues involving children to try and get a face to face ...

Hi Ido SAR Timeline X applied on 07 July and received on 25 August, Y applied on 18 July still waiting... Seems we can't get anything out of the home office' 'on time' anymore. What happened to the 40 calendar days? I wrote to them 2 weeks ago and still not a word or file from them. Will keep forum...

I applied to get my files from the home office early June 2014, they acknowledged and said they'd post them by 20 July but up to now nothing. Has anybody had such experience of delays in SAR request? My solicitor says homeoffice are super slow in everything. Isn't that even illegal to delay more tha...

This is a reply on assumption that you want compensation and your records changed and you haven't sorted out your issues with HO.
