My ILR application timeline using standard application (5-year route). Just for reference: Online documents/form submission - 22 February 2023 Biometric submission - 03 March 2023 ILR approval email received - 30 March 2023
My wife has now been granted ILR on the 5 year route, which is such a relief to us both... we applied online on 1st June submitted biometrics 7th July got an email saying they wanted an original bank statement as online statement not acceptable on 19th July sent them the original bank statement Got an email saying ILR approved on 4th August I didnt query why they didnt accept the online statement I printed at home, as I just wanted to get the ILR done and my bank was really good and replied quickly. Maybe I just got a fussy officer. Good luck to everyone else who is applying.
