Hello..
I was on Tier 1G and got my ILR approved today at cardiff PEO after completion of 5yrs.
I would like to thank all the advisers(Vinny, Casa, WR1,CR001 & ...) in this forum for their time&patience to answer those queries of everyone, however silly it is.
Here are the timelines if it could be of any help to anyone..
1. Appointment was at 10.0AM
2.Checked in through security at 9.30AM.
3.Collected ticket and after 10mins called in to counter to submit the documents.
4.Around 10.0AM, called for Biometrics.
5. 10.45AM, case worker called to a separate room to ask few questions, bit nervous though.
6. After all his questions & convinced on my answers, he said "I am glad to inform, decision is made & your appllication is successful.I need to take photocopy of some of the documents and asked to wait in the waiting area". I was thrilled to hear that.
7. 11.0 AM, Approval letter along with my documents received.
8. So, altogether it was 1.5hrs inside PEO.
Staffs are very codial and friendly. Not crowded, I remember we were only 3-4 applicants. Off street car parking and plenty of space as it was Saturday.
Mere formal Questions asked by case worker..
1. Why are you not applying for your family?
2. What your company does and what you basically do?
Ans- Mine is ltd. company, so I explained him briefly.
3. Regarding some dividend payments, which is there in the bank statement but I am not claiming.
Ans - straight fwd answer
Documents submitted..
1. Cover letter
2. Payment sheet
3. Life in UK cert
4.Passport+BRP
5.Photos
6. Letter of Absences
EARNINGS
1. Accountant letter+Invoice summry sheet
2. Payslip, dividend vouchers
3. Invoices
4. Ltd. company reg cert+VAT cert
5.P60 for last 5yrs
6.Business bank a/c statement for last 12 months
7. Persoanl bank statement for 12 months+resent two months
8. Ltd. company a/c statement for last FY
SUPPLEMENTARY
1.Travel Itinerary for last 5yrs
2.Some address proofs (C.Tax bills, water bills, poll card, etc..)
I know these are not required, just submitted.
So altogether a nice experience, delighted as this is the day for which everyone is waiting after 5 long yrs..
I am out of work for last few months, so was nervous a bit. This was clarified though in this forum earlier. No questions asked by the case worker as I had shown sufficient balances in my a/cs.
Advise - Keep the documentation simple and organised.
Any questions..pls feel free to ask. Pls see my comments regarding the Summon issue in my other post.
All the best to all those going next..
