Hi Jonesavjones wrote: However, there is another option if you are keen to get ILR quicker. You are an Afghan national, and under the case of R(S) you had a legitimate expectation which was not complied with, as the Home Office delayed your application until the end of the policy period. You could apply to the Home Office for ILR under that case, but it wouldn't be 100% guarantee.

You say that you are self-employed, and the baby to be born in December. Have you and your wife already filed your Self Assessment tax return forms in respect of the tax year to 05.04.07? If not it might assist you to do so before the baby is born, given that your earnings are taking into account when assessing the amount of the Tax Credits payable.
