Hi,

Need some help here, it's a bit off topic, hope someone can point me to right direction. I would like to help my partner, Chinese, to get Partner visa. We have been living together since 2006. She's Phd student and also as an associate teacher at University. She is holding student visa until Feb 201...

Klow , thanks. do you have a valid passport now? if the answer is NO, then how did UKBA issue you the ILR? As I only sent UKBA expired passport, do not have a valid passport. I hope this is not a problem. My first application was EEA family member in 2004, but rejected in 2006 because of the dodgy-...

Hi pgmiot & londongirl259, I used to use pay solicitor, which causing all the problem to me and had to wait for 14 years. There are also some good one, which helps my friend get their ILR as they promised my friend. So find some recommendation solicitor if you need helps I'm very lucky. There's ...

My partner is holding student visa and we have been living together for over 7 years.

I've just received my BRP card, when can I apply for UK passport? I heard from someone before that I need to wait for a year, is that true?

Many thanks

Question:

Can I apply UK passport now? I heard from someone that I need to wait for a year, then apply UK passport. Is that true?

Hi Zebrudaya,

How about yourself Hopeful2 ? Any news for your application?

Another 6 months for my brother? That's really killing us! Hope mine will be approved soon, otherwise we'll run out of saving to support us

An update. To Hopeful2: After few weeks of resolving H.O. confusing of mine and my brother's appications. My brother has got biometric enrolment invitation letter yesterday. At least we both in different cases now. Hope H.O. won't make any bad surprise to our case anymore. To Lola56uk: Wish you all ...

Hi Hopeful2, My brother & I applied through solicitor. They called HO about the 2nd Biometric enrolment letter on Monday and they found out that HO has mixed up mine and my brother's name. There are two case reference number of me in their computer system and none for my brother. So one of the B...

Hi Hopeful2,

Sure, I have the P.O. receipt and the barcode. I will try your method. Hope they are not asking me to pay again

I received biometric enrollment letter AGAIN !!!

I've already done it in September, why they sent it again? So what should I do??? Should I just go and do another enrollment?

I've just past 6 months 2 days ago. I'd done biometric in 1st week September, H.O. asked for my pictures in beginning of Dec. Still waiting.

Hi Hopeful2,

Have you had a good Christmas?

I've got no Christmas present from UKBA either Today is still bright, might receive New Year present instead? Well, we've got to stay optimistic.

I've got 2 weeks to go up to 6 months of waiting. Should I start contacting UKBA after that?

HO sent me a letter 2 weeks ago to ask me to send them my pictures. But I did post it with my application, I wonder if they have lost it

I think tomorrow is the last day for Xmas delivery, good luck to both of us to receive early Xmas presents !

I applied for ILR under 14 year rule on 6 July, response received dated 23 July, received letter from HO dated 1 October received end of October stating application to be invalid because I hadn't signed and dated a page plus left out passport number, sent completed documentation back by registered ...

Is there anyone here applied for 14 years long residence just before the rules change in July got their ILR approved?

I can see lots of non-14 years applicants got their ILR approved, but I can't find anyone got approval that applied through 14 years rule.

Is there anyone has got granted SET(O) 14 years for July application?

I believe this is just a standard procedure, they won't even look at your case if you haven't done your biometric enrolment. Please wait for more answer. Hi guys, I hope this is not a stupid question. Does the receipt of a BRP invitation letter mean that your application is very genuine and receipt ...

normal post for me as well

Hi sn123, I'm applying for SET(O) and I've received my biometry letter early September. My partner is applying for SET(M) and she hasn't received her yet. We applied the same time, 5th July. If you look at July application post, few of them haven't received the letter either. Pls read this for July ...
