Hi,
I am new to the forum. I have submitted my 10 yrs Long residence application on 20th September 2013 and received acknowledgement on 26th September. I haven't received a biometric letter yet. Please can anyone share your experience if you have or haven't received biometric letter who has submitted more or less in the same timeline. Your response would be much appreciated.
Thank you

Why did you submit
FLR(LR) instead of
SET(LR)? Have you not satisfied the
KOLL requirements?

Hi Vinny,
Thank you for your reply. I have submitted SET(LR) Form along with-
-KOLL,
-Passports,
-BRP card,
-All the previous BRP documents,
-Bank statement and wage slip for 4 months,
-Original certificates of my qualifications achieved in the UK,
-Council tax and utility bills,
-Proof of addresses for the last 10 years of my stay in the UK,
-Tenancy agreement forms
-P60s for 9 years,
-Doctor letters,
-Employer letters
-Cover letter
-and all the other documents that I thought are relevant to the case of my application
(hope this info will help others to get an idea of what type of the documents we could possibly include with the 10 yrs application, although these are mentioned in the SET(LR) guidance form)
I would like to know if any one has experienced a delay in receiving Biometric invitation letter or is two months a normal waiting period to receive invitation letter.
Thank you for your cooperation.

Hi,
I followed the guidance where its mentioned Council tax or bill for each year of your stay. if you were a student then you don't pay council tax in that case a tax exemption letter should be provided by the university or you could ask your university to write a letter confirming the duration of your study with them as well as your certificate should prove this too. But you need list all the addresses of your stay over the past 10 yrs.
To me some of it are very subjective, you do your best to provide UKBA with the relevant info that you think will help your case. Also you can always get advise from citizen advice Bureau or OISC Immigration adviser for free of cost.
The tenancy agreement is not mandatory but since I had all with me therefore I attached with the application.

I believe all the following documents were not required. As these are only needed to show residence when you do not have your passport for that duration of time. Can someone please confirm if I am right on this?
-Bank statement and wage slip for 4 months,
-Council tax and utility bills,
-Proof of addresses for the last 10 years of my stay in the UK,
-Tenancy agreement forms
-P60s for 9 years,
-Doctor letters,
-Employer letters

Hi,
Just to update my application timeline. Finally I have received my Biometric letter on 22nd November. I made a phone call to HO on 21st November, the number is 08706067766. HO said the letter was first sent to my address on 11th October which I didn't receive and the second letter was sent on 18th November which I have received on 22nd November. I was told by HO that if I hadn't received the second I would need to wait until 9th December to request for another biometric invitation letter.
My timeline is
Application submitted- 20th September 2013
Acknowledgement received- 26th September
Bio invitation letter received- 22 November
