Ive got to say this forum has given me hope, all of you here are God-sent comforters. Ive been a silent member of this group and I also applied for ILR 10yr residency, recently at work ive been having a terrible time and because I was on tier 2 I couldnt really say much but kept soldiering on... so I sent my application 25/08/11 using a lawyer under being a student and Tier 2 got a reply letter saying its being passed to a case worker 31/08/11 then got a call today from my lawyer saying it has arrived 14/11/11 but was stamped 27/10/11....So all in all about 11.5weeks... (student and Tier2)

Keep strong and have faith...and I wish everyone the best.. God bless you all

Hi everyone, Im a new memeber here, would like to post my application status as well

Application sent-25/08/11
file opened- 30./08/11
Payment taken- 05/09/11(check)
Acc recieved- 05/09/11(dated 01/19/11)
still waiting and it has been 12 weeks

I applied through lawyer, my lawyer called HM twice or three times to ask about my status, the last time he called was on Monday, and HO said my case is not yet closed, no result yet. He also said it has been been 14 weeks, so I should be make any travel plan. My lawyer told me that there are three offices that are processing 10 yrs, Crydon, Liverpool and Sheffield, and my case is with Liverpool office.

I heard that most people receive their PR back within 10 weeks, I hope mine can be back asap, as I need to make an urgent travel.

Hi all,

I received my passport with ILR endorsement today and am sharing this good news with you all. As some of you might know that my passport was mishandled by the UKBA and was sent to someone's address. I had to ask for an intervention of my local MP, which helped in getting a prioritised processing for myself (10 year long stay), my wife (10 year long stay) and son (SET-F). My wife and son already received theirs and I finally got mine. Here is my timeline:

Application sent: 3 Oct 2011
Application received by UKBA: 4 Oct 2011
Money taken from my debit card: 7 Oct 2011
Mishandling of the package notified by its recepient: 17 Oct
Acknowledgement Letter received: 29 Oct (note that it was only issued once they got my package back from the other receipient)
ILR stamp date on my passport: 11 Nov 2011
Passport received: 17 Nov 2011

I had submitted only the essential documents: completed SET-O form, LIUK test certificate, my old passport and new passport.

This forum has been a great help to me. I would like to thank you the forum members for their help in the time of need.

Good luck to you all who are still waiting for their turn.

Best wishes,

Tradle1

Sorry for the typo in earlier post

ILR stamped: 01/Nov/2011
Received: 09/Nov/2011
Processed at Croydon
Docs sent: 2 passports, LIUT, payslips, statements etc. I did not send photocopies. I do not think they required all the extra docs but then again why risk

Applied 20 days before 10yrs reached and pretty straightforward case, no gaps in visa or stay.

All the best to you all waiting, it is on the way!
