ILR Success - WP + TIER1 (granted after 06 Apr 2010)
Posted: Tue May 31, 2011 10:47 pm
Hi,
Thanks to everyone who responded my queries on this forum. I thought to share my experience if that's going to save some money for others on premium calls -
The questions which I had in my mind -
1. Should I put NA or Should I cross those points which does not apply to me
--- I didn't put anything and left them alone.
2. Have I spent 5 years, shoud I tick that box (on Page 20 of SET o) as I was applying 15 days before 5 years -
- I ticked that box (Although the UKBA helpline said that I should leave that unticked and explain that in covering letter)
Security check (2 min) + Went to counter and got the ticket no.. + was called to submit all docs & form within couple of mins + Payment (5 min) and left all documents with the payment counter.
Didn't hear anything untill 12:15, that's when I though to check (as by this time it was about 90 minutes and didn't hear anything) , response got that the Case worker is looking now..
Did wait for another 15 - 20 minutes... and then was called on counter to tell that I will get my passport in about 15-20 minutes and here are all your original documents...
My salary was less this year than last year (when Tier 1 granted) but in same band. But it was faily less than 2008-09
The documents I submitted to avoid any question -
1. Form Set (o)
2. Fee - Paid with credit card
3. Life in Uk test (myself and dependant)
4A. Letter from employer (working with same emploer since last 5 years) with salary for last 12 months + mention of business trip + holidays (had about 60 holidays outside uk)
4B. 5 yrs P 60
4C. Letters from Home office whcih I received with Tier 1
5. last 12 months bank + last month bank statement
6. Saving accoutn statements
8. Last 5 years bank statements
7. Cohabitation:
A. Counterpart Driving Lic
B. Council tax (from may 2009 onwards) - Dependant
C. Utility statements (from May 2009 onwards) - Dependant
D. Bank statement (Aug 2009 onwards) - Dependant
E. Birth certificate - Dependant

The only question I was asked was about the photograph when I submitted the forms How old my photos are.. Ans.. Last weekend...
Hope it helps...
