Thanks NOG,
I did a search on myself with www.trustonline.org.uk and also the county court, but nothing was recorded against me. Its either the judgement was not registered or i was not sure of the decision of the judge as i cannot remember what happen on that day. What am sure of is, i was summoned to the County Court for not paying of house rentCCJ
Should i just write the Home office and tell them this ?
Thanks

@let_koko, I may be completely wrong here but my understanding is that a court summons is very different to a CCJ. I was abroad for a fair amount of time this year and missed paying council tax. Upon my return I found a court summons, however, paid the outstanding amount over the phone and was assured that no CCJ was issued in my name. To be honest I do not know how it works with traffic offences and it would be best to speak to a "professional" if in doubt.

Hello guys, I posted my application last Tuesday (04/Sep) and it was delivered to UKBA on Wednesday. I just received my acknowledgement letter today and the date of the letter is 06/Sep. I did not expect to receive their letter in less than a week! Hopefully this is a sign that they are working much more efficiently.
Cheque has been cleared today (11/Sep).

I would not be too bothered about it. Once you have ticked "All data held by the UK Border Agency" it covers all information UKBA has on your file. You will be OK with that.

Hi all,

I've received my ILR. The following is my timeline.

Application sent date: 23rd April 2012
Acknowledgement letter date: 30th April
Invitation for biometric date: 11th June
Biometric enrolment date: 18th June
BRP issued date: 9th September
Passport received date: 12th September

I applied through an immigration adviser. Documents submitted are photos, passports, three-month period bank statements, certificates from schools I've attended, and a tenancy agreement. My total absence from the UK was a little shy of 100 days and never exceeded the limit for single absence. My student visa was refused in January 09 but an appeal was allowed in March 09. The reason for the refusal was not satisfactory progress in my study (cannot remember the exact phrase). I used a solicitor at that time. There was a single gap of 9 days as I went back to my country to apply for a student visa. Apart from these, there had been no issue extending my student visa for 8 years and a 2 year PSW.

This website had been a great help to keep me sane. Thank you for everyone who shares their knowledge and information. I hope everyone waiting for their ILR will receive it soon.

Thanks jbm, NOG.

nam1234 · Post by **nam1234** » Fri Sep 14, 2012 1:42 pm

Just want to update the timeline.

Applied: 13 April 2012.
Acknowledgement letter was dated: Beginning of May, first week (sorry, just somewhere among papers, can't find right now)
Bio invitation is received: 3 July 2012 and done in the same day.

Today my immigration advisor rang to me and told my ILR has been approved and my Biometric card should arrive soon. 10 years student, once it was rejected due to my college's licence. I appealed in time though the gap was over one year. But everything was done within given time.

Did not request for SAR file as had all previous letters with HO. Only around 20 days absence.

Submitted docs are: LIUK test, passports, Police registration certificate and 3 months Bank statement.

So much relief, thank you for this forum. It was really very helpful to trace time. I wish everyone here Good Luck and hope you all will get your docs back soon!
