Hello

I have a query. We (myself, my wife and my son) came here in UK on 15th March 2005 and eligible to apply for ILR under 10 Year rule. My question is can we all apply at the same time. When we came here my wife and my son came here as my dependent.
Thanks in advance.

@Parkar,mate i am very much confident that all of you three are eligible to apply for set(lr) but make sure your wife and kid cannot apply as dependent in this long residence category but upon completion of your qualified time for set(lr),you all will separately apply with separate fee and on separate form.pls make sure you also consult some senior solicitor as well to discuss the same query as this kind of query has never been raised or may be raised ages ago on the forum but this is what with the best of our knowledge.

Hi
Any news of TOEIC held applications?

thanks

hi hammad14

I am in the same situation applied 29 aug what about you?

Hi K4

Are you still waiting for your approval. I have applied on 26 August still waiting. I have also requested through MP to expedite my application that was two weeks back but still no news. Have you received any letter saying it would take more time to decide your application. Called twice last week but they said decision is not made yet continue to wait.
Getting worried now as my case was straight forward.


hi Allesheikh

No I haven't received my decision nor the letter stating it will take more then 6 months. I had previous history with toeic that's why my case is delayed. Hope you get yours soon it takes around 4 weeks when you get your MP involved ask your MP again has he received any reply from HO.
Good luck and do pray for all of us

Time spent under appeal is counted lawful towards 10 years residency. So dont worry you gonna be fine.

Hi friends. As updated in the forum I submitted my application on the the 28th of November. Now my dad in India is in a critical condition as he is in the last stage of cancer. Is there any way I can get my approval earlier? If they ask me for proofs I can provide them. Is it ok to call them and ask what I can do in this situation. Please help. thanks in advance.

[sajnan]

Hello Isagar, You can send them proof with cover letter directly to ukvi or you can ask your MP to send them your proof. I had sent request 2 weeks b4 but did not get any responce so far. But try your luck. It might work.

[lsagar30]

Thanku imraniqbal2010. I have asked the doctor to send me a letter through email. If you don't mind asking what was your reason for edpediation? May be they are processing your application.

@Leeds,mate if you have been given right of appeal and you files your appeal in the time limit and also if you made your application in time at the first stage,then you were covered under 3c and 3d and your continuity of long residence should not and will not break.

Hi there,

I have been a silent reader in this forum for a long time. I am pleased to say that after 5 months wait, I have been granted ILR on the 20/01/15. I have come to this forum mainly to see other people experiences in regard to ILR application. I have learnt so much on this forum and that is why I'm also sharing my details so that someone else can benefit from my application journey. There are a few things that I have learnt from this experience that I think will help new applicants:

1. Every application is unique. I've been on this forum everyday researching time scales, reading about other people experiences, trying to compare my journey with other people. At the end of the day, it is like crossing a big forest. There are so many pathways, so similar but each different from one another. So do learn from our experiences but always remember your case is unique.

2. Have a lot of patience. It's been a long journey towards ILR and the wait is so exhausting and stressful as well. Don't let it get to you. My hubby told me that on the day I got my ILR, I was a changed person and that during the 5 months wait, he felt so much anxiety and negative vibes from me. I now realise that yes I did let the stress affect me personally and that's not good for people around you. So do have a good support system around you no matter how easy or complicated your case is.

3. Have faith. Some people pray, others meditate, some laugh and some have a good cry, but whatever you do, have faith in yourselves and people around you. I have never used any professional help to renew my visa before but for my ILR, I did use a solicitor. There are so many people who have processed their application themselves. If you are confident, then go ahead and do it but do remember to check the HO website for all the rules and changes made.

Congrats to all of you who have been granted their ILR, Good Luck to all those who are still waiting for a decision and to all those who have been rejected, don't be beaten down and prepare some good arguments to fight your case.

I hope this forum continue to help other people as much as it did to me. I will still come back to this forum for more help in the future and a big massive thank you to all the people contributing in the forum, please continue to do so.

I have put my details on the google drive

@isagar,mate you definitely could apply for the expedition of your case on compassionate reason as your dad is severely ill.The best thing to do is to involve your local MP if possible but its not hard and fast rule as you could get a brief letter from your dad hospital explaining the whole situation and your dad medical reports,you could right a cover letter by yourself and send along with all the proofs.the best thing is to get doctor letter on the letter head.hope they will consider your case.
