willnotbackHSMP - They asked some basic informations like name, dob, no of dependents, have you passed life in the uk test, immigration status over the past 5 yrs, category to apply etc. rg1 - I was told that anyone who had HSMP over the past 5 yrs, even if you have completed 5 yrs in UK can't be gr...

I called at 8.59 AM to book the appointment.

I cancelled the appointment after confirming with HO in phone that ILR wont be issued in person due to this HSMP JR 5yr-->4yr change.

I have rebooked an appointment for 25-june. Need to wait for another 6 weeks.....

I too got an appointment on 15/may in birmingham for ILR with hsmp. I am planning to cancel the same.

crazychris - is it 42 weeks or 6 weeks. I believe we need to wait another 6 weeks to get new appointment.

Do we need to wait for 6 months like postal applications or this follows a different queue within premium service applications.

Gave a call to another case worker and she has advised me to cancel the appointment and apply thro post.

It's shocking to see the poor quality of service.

I just gave a call to case worker and he has mentioned that I can go to premium service appointment for ILR on 15/May.

Confused???? Has anyone tried making a call to HO in this regard.

I have an appointment with Birmingham PEO on 15/May. This is for my ILR.

My immigration status has been WP(2004) --> HSMP(2007) --> Tier1(currently).

Please advise whether I can travel to birmingham or try to book an appointment on a later date.

I checked again with HO today and they again confirmed that from 06/Apr we can apply for ILR in person for Tier 1.

I was also told the same thing today. I called HO today again and they did confirmed again that Tier1 migrant can apply in person. Upon my asking that their new forms still says that Tier1 migrant can not apply for premium service, the lady on the phone told me that they have the new guidelines and ...

I called the HO today morning. She confirmed that I can apply for ILR premium service from 06/Apr/2009 even if Iam in Tier 1. She read the guidelines like "anyone can apply for ILR in person from 06/April when they are in point based system". so she mentioned that I can apply in person. I ...

Has anyone tried booking an premium appointment for ILR from Tier1?

Thanks .

I will give a call to Home office and see the response.

The only thing which worries me is that they were planning to change ILR from 5 yrs to 8yrs some time soon (temporary PR etc) and worried whether it will affect me.

You can try the option of getting a letter from your employer saying that you went on a business trip to india. Couple of my friends were under the same case as yours and the letter worked.

jagberg - Please let me know the fax no to which you sent the urgent treatment. I guess there are quite a few fax nos based on the different posts.
