I believe they might be sorting out July applicants - need to travel in January so need my passport back.Hwima wrote:Hi Softmind82
It appears we are on similar time lines. Applied mid July Biometrics done Mid October. If we go by what other contributors are saying our situation is not terribly bad yet. Despite this I still look forward the postman arriving and hate it when he leaves without dropping the package. Business is dead slow at UK BA these days.
Happy waiting!

Still waiting after 30 weeks.
Can some one put my timeline on sky dive plz.
You have nothing to worry about Khall75. Your case seems straightforward to me. I am not entirely sure how the UKBA prioritize settlement applications, it's anyone's guess really. I wish I could offer some solid help/advice, I can't but what I can offer is some speculative explanation if that helps:Khall75 wrote:No gaps at all. Came in may 2002 student then PSW for 2 years and then hsmp for 2 witch is valid till July 13. But I completed 10 years before my hsmp expires.
It's so erratic the way they are responding so fingers crossed you will get your ILR before then. Some speculate that things will move a little quicker now that those figures were released last week. Good luck.softmind82 wrote:I believe they might be sorting out July applicants - need to travel in January so need my passport back.Hwima wrote:Hi Softmind82

Thanks for the info.
That's the way to go, keep thinking positively. It will happen sometime soon I think. I wouldn't want to assume that because it's taken so long then there is something amiss. I know of some in our category who had to wait over a yr in 2010. Late 2011 they (UKBA) were quite quick two friends got theirs in 2 months. We just applied in bad times when government cuts are beginning to kick in.Khall75 wrote:Thanks DD202
I just sent my passports which shows all my visas and my bio metric card. The application form and nothing else. Coz one of the immigration solicitor told me not to sent much doc. My cousin done the same and the same documents he sent as I did and he got his visa with in 4 months. I will wait as I don't hav any other option. Thanks again for ur encouraging reply.

I have seen some other people had the same issue. With my application i mentioned the arrival and departure stamp dates from home country immigration authority to prove my exit and entry dates to UK. Would this be ok?
If other evidence is required then I can print online bank statements shoiwng transactions that I made to prove my presence in the UK at that time. Since I have already posted my application, should I print those and send to UKBA with a cover letter. Please advice as I am worried.
Thanks.
Thank you smshad. I believe u spoke to customer service and these people always give u negative sort of answers. It was the responsibility of the heathrow immigration officers to stamp our passport when we were re-entering UK. Since they haven't done it, now onus should be on UKBA to find the landing cards from the system.smshad wrote:Hi,
UKBA did not stamp my passport in Feb 2004 and I called HO in August before I sent my application. The advisor told me that as an applicant I have to provide evidence of my stay in the UK for that period. I said to him I have entry and exit stamps from PK authorites but the guy said that you could have gone some where elese. Then I said UKBA will have my ladnding card to check. He then said you are the applicant and onus is on you to provide as much as possible evidence. So, I got some records from GP, some credit card paid bills and visa fee recipt from HO to cover the period.
But, two of my friends had same issue and they applied last year without sending any proof and they got ILR withing 3 months.
You should not worry too much about it if you have not already sent. But sending the evidence wont do any harm. Try to get GP records if you attended in that period.
How can I go somewhere else without having a visa of another country as I only have UK valid visa in the passport. And home country immigration authority always check the visa validity before stamping departure seal on the passport. They will not allow anyone to board the plane without checking the visa.I said to him I have entry and exit stamps from PK authorites but the guy said that you could have gone some where elese.
