Hi imi99999 you should get the invite for biometric in 2-3 weeks from applying. I reckon it should be with you latest by 27th. Have you checked if your payment has been taken?

Please see 2.2 in the guidance
To satisfy the residence requirement you should not have been absent for more than
90 days in the last 12 months. And the total number of days absence for the whole 5
year period should not exceed 450. If you are married to or in a civil partnership with a
British citizen the total number of days absence for the whole 3 year period should not
exceed 270.

I will highly appreciate for your help and advice:
I am in very difficultly position.I was a student,living in UK with my wife and 2 year old son.My visa was refused on human right ground.My appeal's hearing in First Tier Tribunal was on June 2014. 5 month before the hearing date on last January 2014, I changed my solicitor and present solicitor informed Home Office and tribunal about the changes and he represent me in the hearing.I did not knew the decision until I phoned Tribunal on 2nd week of August 2014 ,they told me Tribunal dismissed my appeal on first week of July 2014 and I was also shocked when they said they sent determination letter to my previous solicitor's address.
After many correspondences with Tribunal,Tribunal re-issued decision letter on first week of December 2014.

Then we sent permission to appeal for Upper tribunal to First Tier tribunal within 14 days.Middle of January 2015 I phoned First Tier tribunal to know about the outcome and they said they haven't received my permission to appeal for Upper tribunal.but my solicitor said he have proof,he have the receipt from fax machine that he sent the permission to appeal.now he is contracting with First Tier Tribunal.
First week of august 2015,I will qualify to apply ILR on 10 years ground.I am very much worried that Home Office could say I have the gap in continuous residency during appeal process.I needed to kill those time to qualify for 10 years route.does my solicitor intentionally doing this to spent those time,why he is not telling me then ? or those issues occur because of lack of his responsibility ? how can I over come from this situation ?

I will highly appreciate for your help and advice

Brilliant news mate! Was just on the phone with the Home Office and some guy told me they are dealing with Nov applications! Clearly they don't have the right information as the lady on the phone last week said they were dealing with Dec-Jan applications.
