UKBA deliver BRP's through DXSecure and other documents via Royal Mail recorded delivery (unless you have supplied a Special Delivery envelope).

Congrats!
So you need to supply 12 months of payslips and bank statements, but there is no minimum amount to have earned or to have in your bank account?

I had to prove that I earned enough to get at least 75 points from tie one general calculator.
About the delivery, It was a man in a plain cloth driving a silver vauxhall astra estate who delivered it to me. He did ask me to show a form of id. He just looked at my driving license and said its ok.

Hi and congrats on your ILR. Did you provide assesment from point calculator on the UKBA website to support your application?
Thanks

Why did you need to get 75 points from a tier 1 calculator when you're applying for ILR?

If your last leave to remain was tie one general, you still need to show that you qualify for tie one at the point of applying for ILR.

Do you need to prove maintenance (funds) when applying for ILR? Or is it just your education, age and salary?
Posted: Wed Aug 15, 2012 2:06 pm
by tja28
YES MENTAINANCE REQUIRED. 3 MONTHS DURATION.

I can't find that noted anywhere? Do you have a link?
I can only see that you need to score 75 points on table 2 here: with the criteria of qualification, earnings, UK experience and age.

I thought it was needed. I was made to think that because of this page from the points calculator of ukba. not sure if this statement does not apply for ILR. I did leave money in my account for a long period before application. The gentleman/lady who said its not needed might be right.

SELF ASSESSMENT SUMMARY
Page 7
MAINTENANCE (FUNDS)
In this section, you must score ten points for maintenance (funds) at the time of application or your application will be refused. You must have
£900 of available funds in your account and these funds must have been continuously in your account for a period of 90 consecutive days
when you apply. Do you have these funds available at the time you apply?
