Re: Super Priority ILR application (SET-M) - been more than a week no update

Hi Sorry for the late reply. Yes i finally heard back from them with the below response. I also soon realised that as a person holding an EEA RC as the spouse of an EU citizen, I did not qualify for ILR on form SET(M) - which needs a Spouse Settlement visa for 5 years NOT an EEA RC. So money down ...

Re: Category confusion

You will likely then be on a new 5 year or 10 year route to ILR. Thanks for the clarification. Somehow I had the belief that with a 30 months limited, it meant I could even apply for my permanent residence anytime within that 30 months timeline. For example I could choose to pay the surcharge and ...

Re: Category confusion

If you apply using the EU Settlement Scheme, you might be offered the Pre-settled status. It is a free application. Thank you for all your help and prompt replies.

Re: Category confusion

You do realise that the time between your student visa expiring and the issue date of your RC means you had no legal status in the UK. That aside, you should not pay the IHS as this will change your immigration route. Simply apply for the EU settled scheme now, Thanks CR001. I applied for ILR first ...

Re: Category confusion

What date did your student visa expire? You should apply for the EU Settled Status when you have 5 years residence as an EEA EFM. You stated yesterday that it was a SPOUSE?? Are you now married or still unmarried?? I’m a non EEA on a family visa with a EEA national (Spouse). My student visa expired ...

Re: Category confusion

Apply under the EU Settlement Scheme for Settled Status. If you hold an EEA Residence Card, note that it NOT a 'visa', it is a residence card, which is not mandatory to hold under the EU regulations. Thank you for your help. Can I still apply even though my 5 year family visa ran out a week ago? So ...

What was your visa ? Did you have 5 years under family route FLR(M) or did you have an EEA residence permit ?

Re: Super priority ILR

Why did you complicate the application by submitting savings and self employment? What was the savings amount you used to meet the requirement? I used £80,000. I’m thinking of emailing back the case worker and telling him to just use the savings. I don’t know if that will help. What do they tend to ...

Re: Super priority ILR

You cannot combine savings and self employed income, Appendix 1.7 is very clear on this, page 18 in the below link, hence you might have simply complicated your application by providing unnecessary documents. https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data ...
