Sep 2008 - I came to UK on student visa Mar 2009 - i got a Tier 1 (General) visa (while I was still a student as I had earnings before) Sep 2009 - I started employment in the UK with Company 1 (first time I started earning and paying taxes in the UK) Sep 2010 - I changed job to Company 2 Mar 2012 -...

Thanks Mate, I know it is a hypothetical question but what one can do if they couldnt find any job after landing in UK for first 2 years of their visa and could only manage job in the final year and got extension.. are they still elligible for the ILR ... or are they still economical active.. consi...

Thanks for the replies

I guess I need to be more clear with my question: "Will be ok if LIUK pass certificate has a different postcode on it when compared to the postcode I put on my ILR application in the future?"

thanks

(I remember for Tier 1 G extension it was at least £900 in 12 consecutive months)

Thanks

There is no minimum fund requirement for ILR.

See Q4 in the link below http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewtopic.php?t=79378&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight= thanks. The below document also states the 90 day rule. page 21 of this ukba guidance states: http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/documents/policyand...

No earlier than 28 days before completing 5 years. Just to followup on that. Please correct me if I am wrong. If a person entered the UK within 3 months from the date the 1st visa was issued, his qualifying period starts from the date the 1st visa was issued right!? And he can apply no earlier than...

Do LIUK test certificate has address details on it? I have given in November and it doesnt have .. If that's true, i'd be happy to give out my temporary london address and take test near by. What documented proof you have for your current address? i have one of my bank card statements. I put my tem...

The address is verified by checking your driving licence etc. So give the address which is on your official documents. Thanks for the reply. Online booking only allows you to book a test in centres near the address you supply during registration. I can supply my official north address but by doing ...

Hi all, To be precise: Should the address on the LIUK certificate match the address we provide in the ILR application? I ask this because I live in the north, but I have been in London temporarily at my sister's for the last 2 months due to work and personal reasons. I need to take LIUK test soon an...

All data held by the UK Border Agency

Thanks sheraz, was just thinking if I requested 'all data', it might take a long time for UKBA to retrieve them from various departments and I might miss out on the deadline

Hi all I am doing my SAR request for information regarding days out of UK (hopefully I will get in time as it takes around 40-50 days). Is it just the 'landing cards' box that I need to tick to request information for days out of UK? I understand that SAR won't contain outbound days from the UK. Jus...

Hi, I was unemployed for a short while 3 years ago under Tier 1(General). I did spend almost all of that time searching for job while living in the UK. Later I got a job and also got my Tier 1(General) extended. Does being unemployed affect my ILR application in any way? Thank You well you don't ne...

Thank you for your reply, Yes I have used points calculator to combine UK salary + Overseas salary and using UK experience threshold income of 20k to claim 15 points plus 5 points for UK experience. is this fine. Agian... how much UK salary do you need to show for your category to claim points for ...

I have an ILR due based on HSMP 5 yrs. I have 11 months earning in UK and 1 month in another country to meet the criteria. Can I apply for ILR. Do i get 5 points for UK Experience. Thank you there is no simple answer for your question. you need to give more information. Have you used 'points calcul...

I wouldn't even risk it tbh. Always go with the whole documents.

If the absent days are well under 180 days threshold, and not proof of absent reasons are provided when applying under Tier 1 G, then what will happen? Can it be refused? Thanks Well why would anyone want to risk not submitting a letter (even for absences below 180 days). It's always better to get ...

The use of overseas earnings is permitted. Hi Bildor, Are you sure this is permissible for ILR applications? If you could point to anything in the immigration rules or guidance it would be very helpful. As cs95tdg says, there doesn't seem to be anything clear in the guidance regarding overseas earn...

Hi, I just happen to see this message and I feel it should be fine as long as the money is coming into UK account and is in GBP. In some cases even if it is not in GBP you can use the conversion rate of your earnings and as well. i agree. Also the money doesnt always have to come into an UK account...

Also I believe one doesn't need to be in employment at the time of ILR application!

thanks

Hi I am getting ready to apply for my ILR in a couple of months time, but would like some EXPERT'S advice on my issue In short: I am applying for my ILR in August as I will have been on Tier 1(general) for 5 years by then. As I need to show earnings for the last 12 months, I only have overseas salar...

I am looking to apply for ILR and have few doubts considering the rules in place at the moment 1) I got my Tier 1 general entry clearance on Oct 2008 and I entered UK just after 88 days. With current rules this should not be counted as absense as I entered in UK before 90 days, is my understanding ...

This should be quick one. The point calculator is same as the one we use for Tier 1 ext? which is: www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/pointscalculator I know it is not mandatory to give this ... but if i need to then is this the right link .... kindly confirm Yes it is.
