Congrats to all who got it, I have just finished week 9. Still waiting, I suppose they are going to close for XMAS now, so will probably get an answer after new year. Oh well the wait goes on.

ILR RECEIVED

Post by Cad1 » Wed Dec 21, 2011 11:52 pm

HI everybody i got my passport with ILR TODAY

Application sent 30th Sept
Received by H.O 5th Oct
Payment taken 7th Oct
Ack letter dated 5th Oct
Ilr stamped 16th Dec
passport received 21th Dec

I have been a silent reader. I had a Gap of 2 months in 2003 my application was considered invalid as was asked to produce results I reapplied as soon as i received my results,
my application was validated after 2 months. therefore i assume its a gap of 2 months.
my case was represented my solicitor who seemed to have understood my case very well.
I wish all people to get their passport with ilr asap.

I am a silent follower of this forum which helped me a lot. Thanks for everyone here. My Application time lines are

Sent:05/10/11
Ack Date:06/10/11
ILR Stamp Date: 12/01/12
Received: 17/01/12

Student (8yrs)+PSW 2yrs. Thought no gaps at first, but later found out that a post strike happened during one of my visa extension MAY cause gap. Thus On 17/10/11 I sent additional information about the post strike and a letter from the international student adviser who helped me with that visa extension. Didn't apply for SAR. So not sure about the usefulness of the information I sent. I wish everyone who is still waiting for the visa hear good news soon.

Lost Passport

Post by shola » Thu Feb 02, 2012 1:29 am

Hi guys, I have being in this country since January 2002, unfortunately I lost my passport while on holiday in Africa last year, this made me stranded in Africa for just under 6 months. when i came back, i applied for 'subject access request' which i got in November last year. my question is will my ilr application be treated as straight forward or complicated ilr application i mean in term of processing time. I have always abide by all rules and regulations never out of time renewal. here is the detail of my application submission:

submitted on 20/12/2011
money taken 22/12/2011
acknowledged 23/12/2011
still waiting.........................

I submitted,

copies of previous granted visas
Subject access request
Police report of Lost Passport
Payslip
life in the UK test
obviously, my new passport



Can anyone tell what time i should roughly expect my passport back? Thanks.
