Help with SET(o) form

Post by angeloick » Mon Jan 23, 2017 6:27 am

Morning

I am applying for ILR after completing two sets of DLR (3X2 years) and would like some help with some questions on the form

I am using my wife card for payment is that oK?

section 3 -which category

I choose ,other purposes or reason not covered by other application is that the correct category ?

section 5.5
I tick yes
because we receive
council tax reduction -housing benefit(part to help paying rent)
child benefit and child tax benefit
all those are on a joint claim and go to my wife bank account
is claiming all these will jeopardize my application? (my wife is British )

I am enclosing my pay slips 3 months
letter of employment
my BRP card
my wife and kid passport

your help will be highly appreciated

I am enclosing my pay slips 3 months You MUST submit the most recent 6 months pay slips + the corresponding bank statements.
letter of employment

What evidence of joint address over the qualifying period are you submitting?

Thank you CASA
yes I told the council but my wife has to fill a joint claim for a reduction on rent to pay calculated on the income that we have as a family (on my resident permit card the is no restriction to public funds )
I am confused now with that information
we do not qualify for council reduction (my salary is over the threshold)
Evidence of joint address over the qualifying period
some bills and tax credit awards
schools letter ,council tax payment

Your wife was only entitled to HB at the single rate + child/children, although your earnings would have to be taken into consideration in the calculation.

I'm assuming that was done,

yes that was done
please can someone explain to me why I can not claim on my name in future maybe when on the letter sent by the UKBA
-Entitlement
you are free to take a job and do not need the permission of any government department before doing so . you are free to use the National health service and the social services and other services provided by local authorities as you need them

That is misleading really because nowhere they are telling me that I am not entitled to claim for housing benefit
thanks everyone for their help

It refers to services and not benefits. There is a difference.

My understanding is, as long as the person does not have the ''no recourse to public funds'' conditions on their BRP card and letter and according to the DL guidance it suggests those granted DL have recourse to public funds. Maybe there is a misunderstanding respectfully.

Also from the policy equality statement DL it explains a little clearer.

Again it isn't my intention to cause offence, if I have made a mistake please do correct me on this.
These are my 'views' and 'opinions'.
If in doubt always seek professional advice, or at least do a search for the relevant information. :P

If i make any mistakes, You are more than welcome to correct me.

Instead of posting mobile screen shots, useful if you post the official links instead. Not all DLR visa holders have recourse to public funds as far as I understand and have seen on the forum.

You are correct not all DLR visa holders had recourse to public funds.

those that were granted before 9 July 2012 seem to come under as 'the old DLR' and they seem to have recourse to public funds.

DL Guidance page 14, section 4.3


Again on the same link there the Policy equality statement: discretionary leave and if you go to page 8 (near the bottom).

Again my understanding is, those that where granted DLR after this date where imposed the condition of the NRPF on their BRP and letter.
These are my 'views' and 'opinions'.
If in doubt always seek professional advice, or at least do a search for the relevant information. :P

Cr0001,

1. Why are you tagging onto an old topic which is not relevant to your Tier 2 to ILR questions? The OP in this topic is applying based on 6 years DLR and the requirements are different in what needs to be submitted with Set(O).
