ILR Application - Premium Service

[HSAN]

Dear moderators and senior members.

On the 9th of June 2017 I appeared for my ILR Premium Service appointment at Solihull ( T1 general 5 Year route - self employed )  and after waiting for 2 hours they gave me a letter which says ' further enquiries need to be made ' and they have not given me any time line for the decision.

On checking the status of my visa application online it says ' Awaiting decision'.

My visa will expire on the 21st of June this month.
Can someone please help me to figure out if this is normal these days ? and any idea how long they will take to give decision ? any recent case of someone who had a Premium service appointment and faced similar issues?

Also I need to apply for my wife's PBS dependant extension as she has not completed 5 yrs here and I had to apply for the Nationalization of my daughter ( born in UK ) as both their visas expire on the 21st of June too.

But now as my application is taking time, should I apply for my daughter as Tier 1 general dependant instead of applying for her Nationalization ?

We are not left with enough time as our visas are expiring after 7 days so I need to make a decision as soon as possible.

If someone can advise me regarding these issues it will be great help.

Thanking you in advance.

Can someone please help me to figure out if this is normal these days ? If you search the forum, you will see many posts from people with similar experience as yours. [/color]and any idea how long they will take to give decision ? No one will be able to give an exact time or how long it will take; is more of waiting until HO get back to you I supposeany recent case of someone who had a Premium service appointment and faced similar issues?Many people has similar experience, mostly people on Tier 1 with self employment search the forum.

Also I need to apply for my wife's PBS dependant extension as she has not completed 5 yrs here and I had to apply for the Nationalization of my daughter ( born in UK ) as both their visas expire on the 21st of June too.

But now as my application is taking time, should I apply for my daughter as Tier 1 general dependant instead of applying for her Nationalization ? You cannot apply for registration for your daughter if your ILR has not been approved before this date. Please children are not Naturalised but they are registered for citizenship only when one or both of their parents attained ILR status in the UK . Concerning your wife, will suggest you should submit her PBS depandant application with the details of your application i.e your application reference number. Although, her application may not be approved until yours is concluded

We are not left with enough time as our visas are expiring after 7 days so I need to make a decision as soon as possible.

Tier 1 General route is being investigated for wide scale fraud as many declared false information regarding their self employed income/taxes to gain visas. I suggest to apply for your dependants visa extension before their visa expiry to protect their status under section 3C.

Hi HSAN

Could you please share if there were any Tax amendments ?

Also what all documents have you submitted with your application.

If anyone can share experience of getting visa after been hold on Premium service will be great Dude, its very clear that people who have been doing contracting on Tier 1 have got quite a bit of investigations going on for tax amendments etc. i have heard of cases where its gone beyond 6months. The timelines you have read are not for ILR. If you are referring to the dependent extensions, yes that could be the timeline. There are hundreds of posts and tales of woe.

Some T1G in the link below too but you will have to read yourself to see relevant ones.

If you are or have a period of self employment, hopefully you had no sudden tax amendments.

If you have been self employed, expect something similar to the link below.
