Hi everyone, I have applied 1 May 2013 Still waiting. Any one else out there from May ? I never had to wait this long for any of my past visas and ILR for that reason bit fade up. When you paid such amount of money you expect to get bit of a faster service. Well, nothing much to do except waiting 6...

I haven't checked the citizenship process and waiting times...
Hi, Oct2011, Congratulations! I am so pleased for you. SO now you can have your holiday at last. Enjoy...

I can't believe what you're saying really and I usually ignore childish comments but I am kind of fed up. I have not criticized anyone and I have not told anyone what to do. But you have obviously chosen to take offense at what I said. I said I thought it was pointless, that it just delayed their w...
I once almost got crucified here on this thread when I said that we simply have to accept the waiting game and keep our cool. Thank you for saying the things as they are. And I really hope you'll get it in next few days. You and all others in the 6 (+) club Marie, great news! First stage done, now ...
It's more than 6months, they have sent the ackd letter and payment taken for my ILR application. But no response yet, there is no way to get to them by phone call. Can anyone help me, how to get progress status? Ohidul call the UKBA on 0870 606 7766. As soon as the menu options start dial "0&q...
Perhaps our local MPs should be consulted as to what they think is the best way forward to get the UKBA's attention. They will be best to know how the system works. If we want the right people to listen to the concerns we have, we first need to summarise a list of legitimate arguements for our case...
There is no fix rules in timelines,some even get earlier than others,some even who applied in december got results already,so its either luck or depending on case worker or on the case itself,I think most who get have very straight forward cases. The only way i can see to speedup this process is MP...
On completion of six months, I called UKBA this morning to make inquiry on the progress of my application. The reply 'The application is in progress and decision is yet to be made'. Did others on the forum received similar response on their inquiry after six months? I was told that my application i...
Hi all, I discovered this forum too late for myself, but am posting my experience: Applied ILR 3/11/11 FLR(O) for myself and family . Confirmation letter received a week later. Received passports back today 13/04/12 - almost exactly 20 weeks later, stamped 19/03/12 ( just under a month ago?) I had ...

a small correction. Checked with my husband and apparently the visa was stamped on 12/03 rather than 19/03, as I thought. The pre-paid special delivery enveloped I enclosed with my application was used. Even so, the postage took one month and one day! Brrrrilliant service! Thanks for this piece of ...

There seems to be a discrepancy between the dates on the visas and the return of passports. It appears to be around two weeks. I have to say I suspect fiddling of the figures to make the processing times appear shorter. I suspect the UKBA is in such a state of near collapse that they are playing wi...
Finally after 6 months, almost to the day, I got my ILR. Dated 13th March, received 10th April! Who knows what they were doing with it for almost a month. Congratulations girtbysea! Another Set(O) JR successful. Hope the run continues. Susan1228 I'm sure you're next. I'm curious girtbysea. Can you ...

I am very thankful to this forum and wish good luck to all those who are still patiently waiting... Congratulationa moraa! So glad someone in SET(O) JR finally got their ILR after this dry p...
I know, and agree, we should all practice patience in life but there are times in life when it's mightily difficult to do ... this ILR process being one of them!!! Speaking for myself only now, I found myself being FORCED to do a postal application after having turned up at the PEO for my appointme...

So it looks like apart from teluguabbayi no one else has received good news this week? I was really hoping for a push from UKBA to get as many passports out as possible before the easter break. Damn! What is up with the 2 week delay between ILR stamp date and actually posting the passport? I'd bet t...
