ILR application

Post by Infinite-leave » Fri Mar 23, 2012 11:38 pm

Hello,

Please can someone help me clear my doubts about when do I qualify to apply for ILR and when can I book PEO appointment. Here is my situation:

Got HSMP on 25th June 2007 for 2 years
Entered the country on 9th of July 2007
Got FLR in june 2009 until 25th of June 2012 for 3years.

My understanding: I can apply for ILR any day after 29th of may 2012 as it will be start of the 28 days period from then, is that correct?

I know I can book PEO appointment 42 or 6 weeks in advance but is that 6 week in advance from when you are eligible to apply for ILR ( in my case 29th of may) or is it counted from the expiration of you visa ( 25th of June )?

Any help Will be great.

Hi

You can apply for your PEO appointment 6 weeks earlier than 29th of May 2012. I believe you can book your PEO appointment some where arround by the 3rd week of April 2012.

Hope this answer your question.

Good luck for your ILR.

Sorry guys I am confused here, are we talking about earliest date you can book a peo to get an appointment on or shortly after the 29th? Or you mean you can apply via peo 6 weeks before your eligibility date?

Infinite-leave: as per the modernized guidance, you entered UK within 90 days of getting your HSMP and you are eligible to apply 28 days before the 5th anniversary of your entry clearance.

You got HSMP on 25th June 2007 and you complete 5 years on 25th June 2012, so you can apply for ILR on or after “Monday, 28 May 2012”.

Also to book a PEO appointment for Monday, 28 May 2012, you need to book it 42 days in advance which would be Monday, 16 April 2012.

Hope that answers your question.

Linkers you are a hero. Thanks mate you answered my question in such granular detail that if this was a Microsoft support ticket, I would have given it 10/10 for customer survey.

All my doubts are crystal clear.

Cheers smam too.

Kind Regards

Just something to be aware of; if submitting online statements, then you will need to get them signed and stamped by the bank.
- print out the form again and fill it with the dates from april11-march12 still making it 12 months statements in the last 15 months.
- delay my appointment
- You could also, go to a bank branch and get them to print the statement for the missing month on a bank letterhead (I.e. Ad-hoc statement) & submit it to UKBA along with the other statements you have.
Please help.

Kind Regards

I had the same case at the time of Tier1 Extension. So don't worry just go to HSBC branch and ask them to print out the missing page for you on Banks letterhead.
I had the same bank as well. You will be fine.

Good luck with your application.

Please could the experts double check my papers before i drive down to birmingham tomorrow for my next day appointment on 31st. I was granted hsmp in june 2007 and extension under tier 1 general in 2009 june. I will be applying with two dependants ( a wife and child) and taking my UK born son along with me who is just a year old this month. I booked the appointment for 3 of us so hope there will be no issue on the gates with extra child who we have not included in our application as there is no need to as far as i understand. My papers :

- cover letter
- appointment letter print out
- set0 form version 04/2012
- 2 recent photos of all applicants and name printed in back of each.
- passports held since stay in Uk for all applicants
- life in the Uk for myself and mrs
- 12 months salary slips and bank statements all marked and matching. Each statement and salary slip is attched with a paper clip to its correspodong payslip and bank statement sepratley. Payslip period may2011 to april 2012.
- all 5 years p60
- letter from the employer mentioning my basic salary with a breakdown on the company letterhead with the contact details of the HR person on the day.
- employment history letter from hmrc with my tax history.
- 2 years joint bank statements for cohabitation proof.
- 2 seprate tenancy agreements as we moved houses in last two years.
- letter from the previous GP and current GP mentioning that we were registered with the practice with start and end dates and names of all the members in the household who are registered
- 6 months savings account statements
- degree certificate even though it was produced last time, just taking it along in case it is requested.
- marriage certificate.
- my date of birth certificate
- my both dependant sons date of birth certificates.
- photocopies of all the papers i have mentioned above.
- please add anything i have missed.

My doubt about the form is section 11. I guess 11L is wht i need to check on the for my category and nothing else. Please correct if i am wrong.

Thanks for your time.

If you have P60s, then you don't need the letter from HMRC.
No need of your birth certificate.
