Hello,
My husband was granted ILR last week after 5 years of Tier 2 visa. I came to the UK with him as a Tier 2 Partner and have also completed 5 years and the other requirements (English language and LIUK test). I am going to start my application for ILR but find it very confusing whether I should apply for set O or set M. Please can anyone advise based on my history, which form is the right one for me to fill?
Many thanks!

SET O, it is the only form you qualify to use.

Hello,
I am filling up my set O form for ILR. I would appreciate if you could help me. In the form, I am required to enter Home Office Reference Number of my partner (who is already settled here). Where can I find this number please? My partner has no idea as well. Is it same as UKVI ref number which is a 16 digit number followed by /00. ? or is it something else?
Thank you so much!

Hello everyone. I need some advice regarding the proof of English language proficiency. Currently applying for set O, ILR. My engineering degree was from a non-EU country and considered equivalent to a UK degree. I also have IELTS test score of 8.0 taken in 2011. I have also taken a CELTA course while in UK (which is a Cambridge certified qualification to teach English as a foreign language). Based on all these, do I still need to get NARIC letter listed in the checklist below? or would simply attaching all my certificates suffice?
Checklist:
1. NARIC letter that confirms the qualification meets or exceeds the recognised standard of a Bacherlor's or Masters degree or PhD in the UK AND confirm the level of English to which the degree was taught or researched
2. The degree certificate to prove the level of English language required.
Thank you for any information or advice.
application for children together

Hello. We are in the process of filling up ILR application forms (set O) for our children. Both myself and partner have already been granted ILR few months ago. We have completed filling up the details of our eldest child (10 years old), however after completing his and clicking on the continue button, there seems to be no option to add additional applicants. It leads to payment option next. Although on the top it says "Once the questions for the main application has been completed you will be able to add additional applicants to this application." Has anyone experienced this or did me miss anything? Thanks for any help
