Applied for ILR Route: SET (O) - Skilled Worker Visa(5 years)
Application Type: Priority (5 days)
Application submitted online: 29th April 2024
Biometrics appointment: 4th May 2024 - Edinburgh
Acknowledgement email received: 4th May 2024
Additional information required: None.
Approval Received: 11th May 2024 (Saturday)
BRP Card Received: 21st May 2024

Case Details
- I was out of the UK for 150+ days during COVID-19 and hence created a personal statement for my absence with required proofs such as flight cancellation and my COVID medical report. Just be honest if you're in such a situation
- I booked biometrics in Edinburgh as I didn't have any early appointment dates in my home city and I didn't mind commuting to a different city for early biometrics

All the best and thank you to the members of this forum who helped and guided me during this process

Goodluck to everyone still waiting for a decision. I am truly grateful for this forum else I would have spent thousands of pounds and wait another 5years due to bad lawyer's advice. I was able to vary my global talent dependent application to ILR and it was successful. Thank you

Five hours from received to approval, I guess EU nationals might enjoy a faster process than some other nationalities?
