Hello members, I am a bit confused with the new criminality threshold requirements and need your help with regards to that. I (and my family) have no criminal records in the UK or anywhere else in the world. So is it enough if I mention in the SET O form that I (and my family) are free from any cri...

just file them in by date date order, like bank statments, bills etc. to make it easy and if they ask by date you can go straight to it

Good luck

Thank you for your reply, This link is interesting but it is not quite my case. I am not married yet and will do this in the Uk (not outside).

you can not apply for ILR. you need an extension based on your marriage first if I am right.

congratulations, enjoy the freedom. under what category did you apply? I have just applied under the 14 year rule. still waiting. only 3 weeks since I applied.

hi, now that my husband's ILR is granted, I seem to remember that the last time we flew and waited in the "foreign queue back to England" (I am British and I waited with him, that the woman said we no longer have to complete a Landing Card and also that my husband can queue in the English...

Hi all I have looked on the UKBA website and this forum, but I'm still really confused about what my husband has to do for his ILR application. Does he have to do an ESOL course or only pass a test at A1 level? and what about KOL test? He isn't from an English-speaking country. And if so, can anyon...

I got given a 3 year DLR, you entitled to work, start you own business, travel in and out of the UK,claim benefits ( I would not adivise it tho) unless you have to.

At the end of 3 years you need to re-apply for another 3 years, before you can apply for ILR so (total of 6 years).

good Luck

It's weird they still call it "Apply Online".

its best to do a paper application form so you can photocopy it for your own records. good luck

Is it a good idea to give it few weeks after completing 14 years ( illegal overstayer) and then apply for IRL. Or it is better to apply one day after the 14 years are completed? Thanks I sent my application on the 9th to arrive on the 10th August and thats when I completed 14 years in the UK. good ...

It is immaterial that what changes have been made in form. Law is law. To be valid application should be on current version of form subject to exception mentioned at page 10 of UKBA guidance mentioned above. I have just checked my bank account online and the home office cashed in my cheque for £97...

Where did u get that from? It is 28 days before completing 5 years stay and not 28 days before expiry of visa.

sorry sage I meant to say 28 days before completing 5 years.
thanks for the correction
