Hi I am completing my 10 year long residency on 28 august 2017. I am very confused on some question. Kindly please anybody can help me out? My appeal in upper tribunal. Do I need to withdraw my appeal from court to apply ilr in home office or can I apply without withdraw appeal from court?
Second I want to apply in personal at home office so how many days before I can apply ilr?
Thank you

Assuming that you have been protected under section 3C, you need to withdraw the UT appeal before applying for ILR.
HO might reject your request to withdraw the appeal. You can apply in person when appeal is withdrawn.

ILR has no financial requirement. If you have dependants who are not eligible for ILR yet, then they have to apply for FLR(M) which has min £18,600 annual income and A2 level English language requirement

I meant to say UT instead of HO.
Obviously you cannot apply for a leave when section 3C is engaged so any appeal needs to be withdrawn to disengage section 3C. The
section 3C/3D guide says that UT must agree for an appeal to be withdrawn first:
Where permission to appeal to the Upper Tribunal has been granted a party cannot withdraw their appeal until the Upper Tribunal agrees to the withdrawal. Where the Upper Tribunal agrees to the withdrawal it must notify the parties. The appeal and any section 3C leave will continue until the Upper Tribunal notifies the parties that the appeal is withdrawn. The effective date of the withdrawal of the appeal is contained in the notice issued by the Tribunal.

As long as any appeal is in process and you have not exhausted all your options, you are protected under section 3C which is counted towards your lawful stay. However in order to apply for ILR you MUST withdraw any appeal first as the immigration act does not allow you to apply for a new application when section 3C is engaged. I suggest to withdraw the appeal when your 10 years is complete and apply for SET(LR)

I am with you. I thought you were referring to a new changes . At present one needs to get permission from the Home Office to raise new grounds at the FTT.
Unfortunately I don't think rule 17 applies to a permission to appeal application. So one can withdraw without permission, I believe.

Thank for reply
So when I request to UT withdraw the appeal and receive confirmation can I apply Ilr at person home office within 14 days? In this case is it 3c will continue long residency or will break?

The 14 days time will start when I send request to UT withdraw the appeal or 14 days time will start when I will receive the confirmation of withdraw appeal from UT?

If you are granted ILR via SET(LR), then they need to apply for FLR(M) which means their ILR clock will start from zero again

For FLR(M) you will also need to show that you meet the minimum income level of £27,200 per annum. These can be joint earnings.
The visa fees for your wife and 3 children will be £3972 + £500 each for the NHS surcharge = £5972. This is for a postal application.
If your family choose to apply in person through the Premium PSC service, the additional fee for 4 applicants will be £2360
(Casa, not CR001)
Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.

Thank you Casa. I have one question please. I am self employed and employer as well. If I show from self employed 2016-2017 tax return £15000 and from my work £15000 total £30000. Does it full fill dependent USA requirement?

What is the confusion ? They need to switch to FLR(M). They have to wait another 5 years for ILR
