ILR application

Post by saira12 » Tue Mar 15, 2011 1:11 am

HI
i am going to apply for ILR soon on the basis of 10 years lawful long residence .
my current passport is going to expire in one month time, and if i renew it its going to take long.

can i apply for ILR while passport is still valid but only one month left?

i know normally UKBA take long on these type of ILR application, all i want to know by law would it be fine?

Kind Regards

You can even apply with an expired passport. Of course you can't travel with it. Can't find the reference but I am sure I read this somewhere.

The relevant IDI (which contained this information earlier) - Chapter 22 -> Section 1 - is being updated. The old one has been taken off from UKBA website.

Reading this topic may be helpful ... assuming there is no change in the procedure(s).
