Hi ,
I will be appreciated if you any one could reply few of my queries.
My case - I am applying for ILR within few days under 10 year long residence as a student ,
I have no gap in the last 10 years. Was out of UK only for 14 days within this last 10 years.
The papers I am submitting
passport
life in the uk test
biometric card
birth certificates ( have 2 kids who born here )
covering letter
question 1) do I need to submit any other documents to support the application?
2) In my covering letter I am mentioning about my 2 kids of 7 yrs and 1.5 yrs who born here and one of them going to school and happily settled here. as evidence I am including their birth certificates .
Will that have any impact on the application ? What else can I mention in my covering letter ?
I have another confusion .
I asked SAR file from Home office where there is a list of dates consists of my application submission dates and visa issue dates .
On that list its written REJECT next to the date of 22nd december where as we were not refused rather than asking some more documents .
On 22nd December 2006 We submitted application for extention .
They return my application form asking few more documents on 18th jan 2007 giving us 28 days.
We resent the application on 13 th feb 2007 .That time visa was valid only until 31st Dec 2006.
We have that letter from homeoffice for asking more documents .
On that list its written visa issued next to 13th Feb 2007 when we resent the same application.
I wonder is that gonna create any gap between 1st jan to 13 th jan as our visa was not valid this period .???
I dont know why the home office documents
showing reject where as we didnt get any refusal letter at all.
In my covering letter do I have to mention about that ?
Thanks in advance .
Nadia

Please dont delay your being granted ILR in time
you need to prove to them what you have been doing for the 10 years of your stay.in your case you have been studying.
Get letters from your colleges showing the date of commencement of study and the day you finished from each school.if possible attach all the certificates obtained.
Please attach copies of all 'the leave to remain' renewals that you have done.
Also if you are working now,please attach letter from your employer.
let all the documents add up to 10 years you are claiming.
or else,they will be asking you for more documents.
Get your ILR in time.
Good luck

Where did u get this information ? Check the SET(O) form and for 10 yrs long residence category , you only need to attach 2 copy of photograph, passports and life in the uk test pass notification certificate with the completed SET(O) form. thats all .

Please read
SECTION 9 OF SET(O) FORM
10 years long residency is addressed under
9S AND 9S also refer you to produce documents in
9T
Since PK is a student through out the 10 years residency,that's why i mentioned PK should produce letters from colleges PK attended.if Pk failed to send this they will still write to request for them.
I am still learning too,i stand to be corrected on above submission

Please read the content of 9S of SECTION 9 very well especially the last sentence in that 9S.
it was stated that anyone applying for ILR as a result of 10 years residence should also produce documents in 9T
I stand to be corrected

Please read it carefully ..... the last sentence is :
"You should also provide documents of the type listed in 9T below to show that you were continuously resident in the UK
during any period(s) for which you are unable to provide a passport."
So, it means if you can not provide all of your passports then you need some supporting documents listed on 9T...

Thanks. BUT regarding my second query I'll be appreciated if someone advise me .
My second query was....
I asked SAR file from Home office where there is a list of dates consists of my application submission dates and visa issue dates .
On that list its written REJECT next to the date of 22nd december where as we were not refused rather than asking some more documents .
On 22nd December 2006 We submitted application for extention .
They return my application form asking few more documents on 18th jan 2007 giving us 28 days.
We resent the application on 13 th feb 2007 .That time visa was valid only until 31st Dec 2006.

Nadia..
dont worry at all about your SAR file are rejection type things.. these look u bigger but are very minor in ur case..as HO normly takes action if ur delays /gaps are more than 3 months or over.u can mention this if u like ,otherwise its not an issue.. the bif thing is that u have beeen here last 10 yrs consecutively and were out of uk for only 14 days.. that would be ur most strong point. just dont panic , gather all papers and apply for ILR , your all family would get that , trust me.... thanks.. imran

If the
application wasn't declared invalid, then you should still be covered under
sections 3C and
3D.

Hey guys
As previously mentioned, I enterd the UK on 25 Jan 2001. I am applying ILR on 4th Jan 2011 ( according to the rule I can apply 28 days before completeing qualifying period )
Is this OK?
I am applying because my wife andmy daughters visa is expiring in April and ILR takes long , so don't want to waste any time.
Any feed back is greatly appritiated.
Please respond ASAP
Many Many thanks
