There are success stories on this board where people used this section for thier ILR purpose.

All you need to do is to mention this section in your cover letter for your ILR and that will do the job. There are many things not published in the guidance notes.

Hi Umer,

I hope after reading the IDI on settlement you will be in a better picture regarding this maintenance funds.

Clause 11L to be filled by Tier 1 migrants.

This clause is more for Tier 2 Migrants. This is not for you, if you are on Tier 1 G. So need not to worry about it.

You don't need maintenance fund for ILR or settlement. This is an Entry Clearance or extension requirement.

I think if you have old valid visa on your passport, you should not have any problem. Plus you can carry your approval letter with you.

If that is not the case, then you MUST wait for BRP.

Thanks Casa and Lucapooka,

Thanks for your input.

@Lucapooka, I will advise the fellow to join the forum and ask straight questions.

@Casa, Thanks for the way you advised me. You have, with your reply, proved why some selected people are made Moderators.

Helping random strangers in grocery shops with their complex immigration problems is something you do often? Just tell him to seek professional advice as you, yourself, don't understand the issues involved and you only came in for some tomatoes. HA HA HA HA, nice one Lucapooka, Where should I send ...

A question from a guy met me in a grocery shop... He come to UK on a visitor visa and married a british citizen and now having two children from that marriage. Do he have any chance of legalizing his stay in UK? He has already spent 10 years. He knows that only option is to wait for another four yea...

Hi, My Friend applied with his wife for his Tier 1 General in Jan 2012. He received his Biometric Appointment yesterday. The question is he has received two separate invitation letters for his appointment. One on his name with unique case ID and one with his wife name with her unique case ID. He tri...

One of my friend came to UK on HSMP. He got his HSMP approval letter on 15 May 2005. His family arrived in UK on 18 Dec 2011 and on 15 Feb 2012 they are granted ILR. The question is, Is his wife eligible for Citizenship next year in February or she has to wait for five years before applying for citi...

Yes they are closing it for every PEO. Now you have to book the appointment in the name of your client directly on the online system, and then you have to be personally present with your client at the appointment in PEO.

For extension applications there are two ways; 1. Using Public Enquiry Office 2. Postal Application Process. For using public enquiry office, you book an appointment and then appear with all your documents and they will take your biometrics there and then. So you don't need a separate appointment. O...

This is the cheekiest bank... When I was applying for my extension ot Tier 1 G. I got the same problem. However, I have sent the same statement along with the cover letter and got extension. One of the thing UKBA are looking in a statement is your address. If that is present and a cover letter from ...

Thanks Greenie and params0073

Doubts cleared....

Hi All, Do you think that the planned tightening of english language requirment will have any implications on the people applying for Tier 1 General extension. Do they need to re-take the IELTS etc to prove thier english languaue ability at the time of extension. Currently, as everyone knows, they j...

Yes he can use this form.

Just a small additional information about this form...

This can only be used by Point Based System Migrants....

From where did you get this information that you need two blank pages next to each other?

The Vigentte or Visa can only be pasted on one page, so atleast one page needs to be empty.

Did you tried to get your self a new passport by paying urgent fees? Check for this option as well.

I suggest to apply through postal application than PEO. As you will be applying on the base of Tier 1 General, you need to prove your last year income or 12 month income. If you are sure that you can claim the points you had mentioned in your application, then the only point left to consider is prev...

As soon as you left UK for India and applied for new Tier 1 entry clearance, your ILR clock is reset.

Now you have to complete five years from the date of your latest Tier 1 visa.
