Hi Gringo, Happy to hear your ILR was approved. I'm in a similar situation as you are and was wondering if you could give me some advice as you've already been through the process. I'm relatively new here and don't know if I can contact you through personal message or something? Many thanks Thanks,...

I filled in all my applications to HO electronically, never had any issues. Got Naturalisation approval in just over 20 days. Also, you get to keep a softcopy of the submitted application for posterity's sake :lol: On the references page, only the details to be filled in by referees should be handwr...

I feel the frustration of people waiting for months but hopefully yours is on the way too! Eligibility criteria:5 Years T1 + 1 Year ILR Language criteria met: UK Masters degree + LITUK Metho...

I'm not clear about the PDF bit. Are you suggesting to fill in the SET(O) form in PDF? Can you please eloborate otherwise?

Thanks

Yes I mean typing the form on PC instead of filling it by hand

Hi Gringo just a quick query being self employed I generated invoices - before the 12 month window- and got paid within the 12 month window, so the moneys I earned in 12 months include invoices generated before that period. I see no problem in this , but a solicitor is apprehensive, I am certainly ...

Thanks mate!
The self-assessment summary I am referring to is the UKBA points calculator printout, nothing to do with tax

5.6 and rest of section 5 is not applicable for Tier 1
Read the last line on page 11

Most of section 5 is for Tier 2 General applicants, you need to answer only 5.1 to 5.5

If all your income is in business account then no need to get personal account statement

Thanks Amit,
The letter doesn't say successful or approved, only says BRP will be sent in 7 days
In my case the CW called to confirm the address so she said application was successful

Hi,
Write the date if you remember and occasion (eg T1 extension)
You may be able to find the date if you used a card to pay, if not the date then write the month & year
Q9 write which post office if your application was postal, else just the city & country

@Scarlettt I was self employed for my initial T1 application, the tax in question is from 2009 HMRC hasn't got back to me yet, my accountant said that's probably because the tax amendment is for an out of date year and the amount is very small so its not a high priority job for them HO did not ask f...

Thanks guys, received my BRP yesterday @Choudhry I booked the appointment myself, had consulted an adviser just to know if the tax issue would be a problem, if your case is straightforward then you don't need any adviser There is a template of absences letter on the forum, mine wasn't very different...

Hi,
I did my MSc from UK, came initially as a student

Hi Gringo I know that you are now speaking to tax office and wants to resolve everything now, but taxation must be paid on time and not after 1-2 years, one of my friends had the same issue and even paying the taxes afterwards did not help him, still refused under deception. So you might pay the ta...

Hi, I have written to HMRC informing them of the issue, haven't heard from them yet, hopefully they will get back soon as I dont want to post my application.

Hi guys, I have an issue and would appreciate any help. I will be applying for ILR SET(O) soon as a Tier 1 general migrant Part of my earnings for the initial & extension T1 application were from self employment and I have paid tax for that income. Timeline: Applying ILR as Tier1 G migrant T1 in...
