Hi,

I have applied for ILR at Croydon today and it was successful

Documents provided and needed

1) Set (O) form for self and dependants
2) Appointment letter print out along with Fee paid proof
3) 12 months Payslips and Bank Statements showing the same and highlighted
4) KOL and Life in UK Test for both myself and spouse (I didn't have KOL certificate as had Masters Degree from UK University)
5) 3 months saving statement showing Maintenance Funds for myself and 3 dependants
6) Absence letter from employer supported by same period payslip and Bank statement i.e. Feb 11, absence was only 2 weeks
7) Driving License Counterpart as had 3 Fixed Penalty Points (Although it's mentioned in the form that Fixed Penalty Points are exempted but it's better to declare it yourself)
Cohabitation documents i.e. 2 years utility bills and mortgage statement
9) PBS calculator print out

Photocopies of all documents is a must along with the copies of your recent and previous passports and Biometric Cards.

Appointment time was 1300 hrs and was returned at 1500 hrs no interview, waited in the cafeteria, parking is also very convenient just opposite in the Whitgift Centre.

Very good, efficient staff and system.

Good luck to everyone going for the same.

congratz

I think photocopies are optional isn't it?? Better to take them with you but not a must, am I right??

I am sure its not but just to double check that there is no minimum threshold to the maintainance fund requirement ?

5) 3 months saving statement showing Maintenance Funds for myself and 3 dependants

Hi,

I know it's optional but we should not give any reason to refuse or defer the application due to the point which is not very clear. So better to attached it and play safe.

Regarding photocopies I think that is required as when you submit the documents and form they do ask you if you've the photocopies, again better not to provide any reason.

Regards,

They cannot refuse your application for not having photocopies. They have big photocopiers/printers in their offices. This is not a 3rd world country.
