Application submitted online: 07/11/2023
Documents submitted: 03/12/23
Biometrics appointment: 04/12/23 Newcastle, free appointment
Acknowledgement Received: 05/12/2023

Additional information requested: More recent copy of family declaration requested on 07/02/24

I was so stressed about this application as my Indian passport expires in April and when I submitted my ILR application, the acknowledgment email said my application would be processed by May! I wasn’t sure if I’d need a valid passport for my ILR application to be processed, but then I looked at the timelines people are posting on this board and I was reassured that my application would likely be processed by mid February. And it was!

Additional information needed -
Received an email on 14 February 2024 saying "Your English language qualification does not meet the minimum level./You have not provided any evidence of an English language qualification at the required level."
I have a UK Masters degree which I re-sent again in reply to this email. Got the approval the next day so seems like it was a mistake on their part.

Less than 3 months of waiting, good luck to everyone!
