Sub: Set (O) - ILR - Falling short of income due to Corona - Please advise
First of all, apologies if my question or situation has already been answered. I have spent good amount of time and scanned quite a few pages through search but could not find a query which is similar to mine.
If there is already a thread running, please point me there, I will be grateful and delete this one. I have read all the sticky posts first.
I will keep it short, simple and straight-forward in bullet points for quick understanding and advice please.
- I have a ILR
- My wife and child are currently on FLR(M)
- Will be completing their 5 years in June and are in the process of filling-up SET(O) form online
- Required income for getting ILR for both of them is £22,600
- However, due to Corona virus outbreak and due to my job being temp., I am afraid we will not be able to meet the income required (maybe I will be £1,000 short)
- Just would like to know if the Home Office rules will have any relaxation / leniency due to this unprecedented situation please (if I were to mention this on the Covering Letter)
- Please note that I would be able to show required income if there was no Corona outbreak and temps. relieved from their work.
BTW, we had booked a in-person appt., but got an email that due to Corona, it got cancelled and we must apply by post. Just dreading thinking about how long the passports will be stuck for (bearing in mind the backlog this Corona is creating and some cases we all have witnessed)
