Mrs. S is a citizen of Australia and came to the UK in 1999. She has an ILE in her old passport but she has never applied for an ILR or citizenship. Her new employer is now asking for proof of her permission to work and the old Vignette on her passport containing an ILE does not satisfy them. What can she do now? Can she transfer her ILE to ILR? Is ILE the same as ILR so that her visa can be transferred to BRP?
Solution: TRANSFER OF CONDITION. Her ILE can be considered as ILR provided she has not lost her status through extended leave. She can apply to transfer her status into a BRP which shall satisfy any employer in the UK. The application fee is £229 and it takes 6 months to get a decision. She will need to book an appointment with the UKVCAS and provide her biometric information too. For more information write to us.
