ILR SET[M] success - Sheffield PEO

Post by hoftwi » Tue Apr 03, 2012 4:06 pm

first of all, i have to thanks for everyone here who gave us a lot of advises.

long story cut short, the procedures were as following:

-appointment at 9:10am, arrived 8:45am.
-went through security check
-went to counter 7 to get my ticket and waited
-around 9:30 was called to a counter and the officer checked whether we got the sufficient documents, asked us to pay the fee
-their payment system was down, waited another half hour to finish off the payment
-10:45 was called to do the biometric, just too 2-3 mins to take a photo and fingerprints
-11:30 was told in the counted that i would get a decision in half hour
-12pm went back to the counter and the officer said a caseworker was working on my case but they were very busy so would take a bit longer to check, asked us to be back at 1:30pm and definitely would get a result
-1:45pm was back and asked the receptionist as the previous offical told us to, he handed the documents back to us and said i would get the biometric permit card within 7-10days

very straight forward and surprised that we didn't need to meet the caseworker at all.

a long wait though and the car parking costs us£10!!!

one thing i don't quite understand is, i arrived and got the ticket earlier than some other people but they were met by the officers first and i don't know how they arrange the orders.

anyway, done and dusted!! thanks all the advises again and good luck to everyone who is going to apply ILR.

Update: got my biometric permit card 2 days after the PEO.

to be honest, not much! as we have just started a business and you can imagine the outgoing is more than incoming. in our last 3 months bank statements show no saving at all but we always cover the bills and no overdraw,that's it.

hope it helps but if you need more info,just ask and i will try my best to answer.

a little remind which i found out on the way out........

if you drive to there, just about to turn left to the peo, there is a car park (like an open field) on the right hand side and states £80p per hour or £3 per day!

we were gutted when we saw it after paid for £10 for the parking!!
