I got my ILR approved in Solihull last week. Thanks to all the member who helped me and answered my queries. Details - WP (1 year) + Tier 1 Gen (4 years). Documents provided - SET (O) form Passports BRP 12 months bank statements 12 month pay slip Cover letter Employer letter (was asked not voluntary...

I was on WP and now on T1G.

But I am taking a letter from the employer with whom I was on WP to be sure.

Sorry I have had two contradictory answers to query regarding 7.11 in this thread.

Can someone who has had their ILR recently approved please comment ?

Refer to the link given in above thread...it has very good guidance on how to contact mp and what to do.

Did they say what type of checks are needed ? They wont do that if the application is straightforward.

That is for cheques and postal orders.

I need to know for bankers draft - "Home Office" or "The Home Office".

Thanks

I am planning to get it today hence asked...

Has anyone used bankers draft before ?

Should it be directed to "The Home Office" or "Home Office"

Thanks

Do not know from where did you get an idea that I am blaming you. This forum doesnt allow personal attacks and I suggest you refrain from them. I just gave my opinion that some posts are unnecessary scare mongering and I personally know people who got their ILR. Further as reiterate you were using y...

What reply you got depends on what questions you asked and depending on your personal situation.

Didnt post earlier because they got ILR only few days back.

Please do not engage in spreading wrong information. Guess the person who responded has been ill informed. For T1G as long as you dont exceed 180 days in a year you dont have to show any evidence at all, even if those leaves were unpaid. I know two examples of people who got their ilr with the new r...

Thanks.

If I extend her stay will that be using FLR M or SET (M) since i wont be on Tier 1 after acquiring settlemetn.

Also, will she be eligible for ILR after 5 years or 2 years ?

Anyone please ? Interesting posts so far. Thanks. I have a similar query - I am applying for ILR very soon. I am currently on Tier 1 General and my wife on Tier 1 Dependent. When I apply for ILR she would be **1.5 years cohabitating at same address.Previous 0.5 year was distant relationship with tim...

Thanks mate

Daydream... Congrats on the ILR for your wife. So you saying that all the absences taht your wife had were unpaid ? This is in line with what I had spoken to several experienced solicitors that it doesnt matter for Tier 1 as long as its less than 180. Also, were there any periods of unemployment in ...

Can someone please clarify if she can extend and apply in 6 months of will have to wait for 5 years ?

Sonakshi, thanks

Sonakshi, Thanks for the details on the translation company. Bear in mind that I could not present the personal letter and the death certificate to the case worker What does this mean? Did you or did you not show the death certificate for compassionate leave ? What did you write in the holiday secti...

Thanks. Congrats on your ILR, must be a big relief.

Can you please tell me if you submitted any evidence for the time on WP ?

Also how many leaves did you have in 5 years?

Hi... I have a question regarding when my wife will be eligble for ILR. I plan to apply ILR for myself next month since we have not been cohabiting for 2 years. My initial plan was that after I get the ILR my wife would apply for FLR M to extend her stay and then apply for her ILR in Sept 2013 when ...

sonakshi,

Congrats on your ILR.

Just wanted to ask where did you get the translation for the death certificate?

Was it originally completely in another language or part english and part native language ?

Also, did you have any unpaid leaves ?

Thanks

wpilr thanks for your reply. I should have made myself more clearer. What I meant to ask was, can she apply to extend her current stay along with me. So if I select PEO appointment can I select 1 dependent? or would she need a separate appointment. Would that mean I pay less fees. The whole point of...

Thanks. I had a look at http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewtopic.php?t=114832 It has b) If the PBS dependant's current leave will expire before he/she completes the qualifying period then the dependant can apply , before his/her current leave expires, to extend his/her PBS dependant leave until su...

All, I shall be applying for ILR shortly. My current leave is Tier 1 General and my wife is on Tier 1 Dependent. We havent completed 2 years of cohabitation so I understand she wont be eligible for getting ILR with me and will have to extend her current leave. Can someone clarify how this will work ...
