Apologies if this is answered elsewhere, have had a look but no luck: After having obtained ILR via the 14 year rule (before it was abolished), I have had conflicting info about when one is eligible for British Citizenship. I have heard one qualifies to apply after 12 months of obtaining ILR but my ...

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 Klow It's not very clear that being given ILR via 14 yr residency means overiding the residential requirement; "Not been in breach of the Immigration Rules at an...

Having BRP info enrolled does not guarantee a successful application. It only means your application is in order and that you have supplied all the required information at this stage and a decision still needs to be made. quote="itsmetoo"]Set M , ILR , spouse visa Application posted 24/07/...

So you shouldn't be far off as you are a week after mi...

Has anyone who applied in Mid-July 2012 received their Biometric letter? I am more concerned about SET-O applicants. I too am in the same boat as you. Applied 16th July, still waiting for the biometrics enrollment invitation. Going by the timelines posted by most people, it could take another coupl...
