You are not required to send any bank statements. The only requirements are your passports and KOL certificate. I don't work at all ! I really don't have the time to be honest.

Any news as to when Conservative-Lib Dem coalition govt. is coming out with a comprehensive immigration policy? If this agonising wait for weeks/months on end to hear from the UKBA about ILR application was not bad enough....now this added worry/anxiety as to what lies in store in the new immigrati...

Just be patient Zara, thats really the most positive response you could have got from there. At least for you, its just a matter of waiting . For the rest of us, we're none the wiser

It definitely keeps you sane! Thats the best way to describe it. Good thing there's good news around these days. It definitely has been a while since there was anything positive to talk about.

@ Zara, if its already with a caseworker (hopefully the caseworker is already dealing with it) then hopefully not much longer as long as it is a straightforward application. @Cloudstar, someone else on the forum had a similar situation to you where they contacted his college about thim. The UKBA had...

Okay. Thats a good thing, please keep us posted about your application. It will certainly give the rest of us hope and more insight into their processing times. I will add you to the waiting list.

Hello everyone Im new this forum well not really coz I have been following this tread for the last well five months and must admit that it has been the only thing that has kept me sane. thanks everyone. Just to say I applied on the 18th of December 2009 long residence 10years student and yesterday ...

Dear Beige Good luck with your application. I am in my week 17 and will request my MP to look into this matter this week. I personally find that 6 months wait is a ridiculously long period. For a straightforward case, it should really be 3 months then again I am in the positioning of making this ch...

It's all of August. They head back to work early Sept.

Lol! Thanks, I will write my MP a letter. I just hope it makes some sort of a difference.

I called the UKBA and they confirmed that 6 months is 24 weeks. So Ill see what happens within the next three weeks. I am going to start writing letters to them because making phone calls is probably a waste of time. Do you know when parliament breaks up for the summer?

Biege!! Hope you don't mind me asking but you're 3 weeks away from your 6 month anniversary. Are you planning to complain at that stage? Yes!! I have every intention of doing so. I don't think its fair to make anyone wait past the 6 month period for a straightforward application. I'm not sure what ...
