Supporting Documents

[zezeson]

Good evening everyone, I have sent out my Set P application for ILR however I haven't uploaded any supporting documents. I understand there's a deadline of 10pm on the day of the biometrics appointment, I'm just wondering if there's any grace period if this deadline of 10pm elapses?

Many thanks.

Usually not. Anything you submit after that won't be transmitted to ho for consideration.

You should upload your documents before your appointment ideally. Date of application is the date you submit and pay online and your documents must be dated on or before this date.

Your biometric appointment is irrelevant to date of application.

Thanks, so basically the supporting documents must be submitted today before 10pm?

[CR001]

Yes If that is what the guidelines are and you hope it isn't too late if you have already attended your appointment earlier today.

I have seen an article which states 10pm as the deadline, I hope that's the case. Thank you very much.

During my biometric appointment I was specifically asked if I was happy to have my application submitted

Yes, I have seen comments/interpretations that the date of submission is the date that the centre where you do the biometrics confirms submission of the application, after doing the biometrics, (as opposed to the date one pays for the application).

You are wrong. The date of application is the date you submit and pay online and NOT the date of biometric appointment with the third party agency ukcvas!! This is clearly mention in official guidance.

You are possibly reading older posts pre November 2018 when in person was at a PSC directly with ukvi!!

Thanks for the clarification/confirmation.

I'm getting "itchy feet", - panicking in case the libraries get closed because of Covid-19, and looking for opportunities to apply early. Currently programmed for 2nd April, which is 28 days before the 5 year date.
