Hi all!

Hope you are all well. It is coming up to my turn for ILR and was hoping to have one of the lovely experts here check what I planned to submit. Over the years you have all given me loads of peace of mind and helped me successfully get the other two visas.

I plan to stay up and apply the super priority route once I am able to apply 

Thank you everyone for your help!

I just realized I have 8 proof of address listed instead of 6/7. Is this too many? I was trying to cover the period from when I last applied (January 2021) to present and those are the most equally spaced I have. Any guidance would be appreciated!

For ILR you need to cover 2 1/2 years from your application date

Can I just double check that documents need to be within 28 days of the application date not the biometrics? Secured my super priority at 1 am today but available biometrics near me were 4 weeks out! Pretty sure it is application but doubting myself so thought it was worth checking!

Yes, the clock stops on the day you submit and pay for the application. All documents must be dated on or before that date, as you have to show you met all the requirements on the day you submitted the online application. Any documents dated after the online application date cannot be considered.

The documents that must be dated no more than 28 days before this date are:
- latest bank statement showing savings or income
- latest payslip (if using employment income to meet the requirement)
- any other documents associated with meeting the financial requirements (i.e. declaration of savings, or the employer letter if using employment income)

Thank you for confirming! I should trust myself more but doubt started creeping in 

Do you know if I can use 8 documents to cover the correspondence bit? I have 8 joint pieces every 4 months from January 2021 to May 2023 but might struggle to find ones at different intervals if I only can submit 6.

Thanks again for your help!
