Raaz0800, be patient, remember this is holiday period, so it will take a week or two longer for you to hear from them. Just be positive.raaz0800 wrote:Assalamoalikum

Congrats on your spouse ILR without the need for FLR(M).
Just a question - So what English language qualification did you show as part of your wife's ILR ? Was the NAARIC confirming degree in Enligh enough ?
Thanks

Hi guys,
I want to share the story of my spouse's ilr - set m visa application that we made today and she got her ilr within one hour or so. Hope it will give some guidance to people in similar situation.
The situation goes as follows. My current tier 2 visa was expiring in april 2014 however since I was eligible for ilr lr in august i went for it. Got it one week before 4 months were about to finish from the day of application. Likewise my spouse had her tier 2 dependent till april 2014. I received my ilr - long residence two weeks back. My wife was with me since July 2006 first as student dependent till early 2009, then as psw dependent till early 2011 and then as tier 2 dependent. Her total time in uk = 7.5 years. She started working in uk as dependent since jan 2007 and still does. Now I decided to take a chance and go for set(m) appointment not flr(m) as I checked out that few people have got that in past while some of them recently had to change to flr(m) and then to set(m) like mr. Ganti. My solicitor also advised me to apply for flr m followed by set m after it, but I decided not to do so. I did took flr m and flr fp which I saw were present on ukba website just in case I have to go for one of those.
I took set(m) appointment online and took all the necessary documents like four documents which were in both our names from atleast three different sources including tenancy agreements spanning over last two three years or so and also six documents in my name, bank statements, utility bills - electric water and landline, usual payslips, employment letters, council tax, hmrc, dvla, nhs etc. I also took six documents which were in my spouse name (including Naric confirming degree in english) spanning for two three years too also from similar kind of sources. For case workers reference, I also put copy of immigration rules from 278-287.
So basically I reached office twenty minutes before appointment, first ticket number was issued, I had prepared full file folder containing all documents which was collected along with my wife's passports & brp and my brp with ilr and my passport too, no questions at this point, then my spouse was called for biometric after which we waited in cafeteria for one hour and then we were called at desk for document collection where we were told that my spouse has been granted ilr based on her set m application. Got the approval letter, brp will be sent in 7-10 days by post.
No questions asked in the whole process and was straightforward may be because I had nicely laid out all the documents in order and probably all that was needed was present for the case worker spanning up to three years.
Sometimes luck does work on your side. Hope it helps.
Thanks to guys here who had provided earlier references on my query on people with similar situations in the past.
Good luck to all.
Hello Guys, just to add to what clubcard2002 said above, pls see the link below,clubcard2002 wrote:Guys, just to let everyone knows that after 15months since the date of your application for ILR, you can apply for naturalisation - if your application was delayed see below. You dont have to wait for a full 12months again. Got mine approved.
clubcard2002 wrote:Guys,
Kinda read somewhere that if your ILR has been delayed through no fault of yourself and eventually granted you can apply for the passport after 15months from you ILR application date. I will try to find the document. That's if I applied for ILR in Feb 2012 and got my ILR Dec 2012, I can apply for passport in May 2013?
Can someone in the know confirm?
