hello guyz..morning.. I feel so lucky yesterday that I was able to book for an ILR appointment this coming 25 January 2010 in Croydon. I called them around 8:59 am 40 seconds (hehehe).Lines are closed until 9am.We just moved here in Kent few months ago and the nearest PEO centre is in Croydon..The most familiar place i knew in London is in Victoria..Could someone help me out with the directions going to Croydon particularly the home office building? We'll just go in London by train. One more thing to ask , I believe that you can not apply for ILR 28 days before your qualifyng period ends. the very first I arrived here in UK was on 22 February 2005.I am on a 5 year qualifying period the lady told me that the earliest date I could apply for ILR is on 25 January 2010 and that's the only slot available..Is she correct and just in time with regards to the 28 day rule? I am really afraid and a bit worried that the officer might refuse our application and not be able to refund our fee which costs £1020 + £100 ( 2 dependants of £50 each ) totalling £1,120 and this is a hard earned money
