FLR (FP) Timeline to expect?

Post by veronirbs » Tue Mar 14, 2017 11:11 am

I am 20 years old and applying for renewal of limited leave to remain, I don't know what to expect as I never did this alone before. I feel very overwhelmed and worried. my solicitor sent application 29.02.17 and something was signed (I am assuming they got my application ) for by flr (fp) office the 1.03.17. they took £811 application fee on the third from my account, however I am wondering when I will receive the receipt of application letter as I need something to show my employer or I may lose my job. I already showed them proof of postage but my visa expires 24.03.17 so I am anxious as I will need this letter to extend my right to work for an extra 28 days. I am reading and some people wait 3 months for a final decision I am worried as my work are only giving me an extra 28 days after the 24.03.17 with this receipt of application to work and I doubt it will be done by then. I am just wondering why it is taking so long to get the receipt of application letter, as it is going on to two weeks since application without it.

If you applied before your visa expired, your existing conditions and ability to work continue. You should receive a letter to do your biometrics in the next couple of weeks.

See the timeline thread below for information.

i know you have right to work after you send application but my work will only give me an extra 28 days and i haven't even got a receipt of application let alone a bio-metric letter. I am very confused and worried as to why, I am reading on here they dont send receipt of application letter anymore but my solicitor has not said this to me. Also it says up to 8 weeks on the HO website but some people on here are waiting u to 6 months for final response. I dont understand why

Ask your employer to use the online Employer Checking Service to confirm your right to continue working.

FLR(FP) applications are expected to take longer to assess due to the general complexity. Why are you unable to apply for FLR(M)?

Have you applied under the FLR(FP) Partner or Parent route? :?:

i am applying due to private life my parents brought me in 1999 when i was 2. i applied for ilr 2013/2014 but was granted discretionary leave in 2014. i dont have kids.
i keep trying to tell my work, but idk if it is just there policy but they are saying extra 28days then they call the home office so i dont know what they will do. this whole immigration thing has made my life a mess i cannot even go to university because of it and to lose my job i wont have anything.

I am also in the same boat as you. I came here as a child (in the 90s i am now 26)and applied for an extension at the end of November but I am still waiting. So you may be waiting a while too. Fingers crossed for both of us!.
