Please help
My ILR appointment at Solihull premium centre was Thursday October 20th at 10.30 am. I expected same day result as I thought I covered everything and provided a lot of documents to proof my 10 year long and legal residency in the UK. I had 625 days absence but out of my control. I explained the reasons of my absences and provided all the documents. I thought I will receive the result same day in few hours. about 2 and half hours after my appointment I received a phone call that the case worker wants to discuss something with me. I was given a paper that my case has been referred to a senior adviser. The person told me that he was not authorised to assess my application because of my more than 540 days absences (625 days) . He did not say how long it will take . he just said a day or two maybe and all documents with the outcome letter will be posted to me.
It has been three days now that I have not heard anything from home office regarding my application and I have nothing to track it. I paid more to have same day result .
Does anybody know how long roughly this may take? would it be possible to take more than few days?sth like postal application?
Please somebody help me in this darkness
I appreciate it
Kind regards
Hanieh
=======================
@honey1985. i have similar case .
Applied at Sheffield PEO: 06-09-2016
Further Check letter Received: 06-09-2016
10 year status: Only Student
Passports at the time of application: with UKVI, passport and BRP copies enclosed with application
Absences from UK: Maximum 75 days (in 2009 for 6 weeks and then in 2013 for 5 weeks)
Breakage in Continues legal time over 10 year: I believe None
Criminal/Civil convictions: I believe None
Outcome: still waiting No response received yet.
Not all cases take such a long time but i don't know why they are taking long time. the lady who took my application said we will contact you in 2 days. however, i was not contacted by HO. I wrote them letter as well as sent them email but they did not respond me back. I rang them three times twice they were not even bothered to take my case ID and said they don't have any record of Premium application. it seems that they lied to me as third time when i rang a lady told me it is in process after taking all my details. she also told me about my letter which I sent them by special delivery. they cant give me any more details. they cant even tell me how long more it is gonna take. i am planning to request MP to write them letter on my behalf.
@yungbuk did you get any response???

@userILR
Thanks for sharing yours case
I applied like you based on 10 year legal stay in the UK all on student visa.
Absence from the UK: 85 days
No 180 days out of UK
My current student visa expires on 10.January.2017
like you , I was told on my appointment day that I will receive the decision with all original documents in a day or 2 by special delivery. I have not heard anything yet and it has been 3 weeks now. I am very tired of this waiting but I have no other option of just waiting and staying positive.
I went to the service centre I applied from (Solihull) last week and I explained my story to the guy whom I believe was the security guy. He took my letter with him and after few minutes he came back and told me my application is in process and they are doing further checks and I will hear from HO in few days. that's it . no more information nor precise time-frame . no track number nothing.
I found a number on website as well which was useless.
in further check letter, it is written that we can contact a number above the letter regarding the progress of application but there is no telephone number. there is only a fax number. I tried to fax a letter regarding my application and concern but the fax number was useless too. The fax did not go through at all. I posted the letter to solihull premium centre via recorded delivery and I know now that they have received my letter last Thursday 03/11/2016. I have not heard anything yet . My solicitor advised me to write a complain and email it to the complain department if I do not receive decision by 11th November.
let's stay positive and pray to receive the good decision very soon
Shall I say ''No News Good News''
Please let me know if you receive the decision or if you find a way to track your application
Thanks
