Hello everyone! finally found this thread! I have posted this information on a new thread but I thought I'd post this here as well. I recently applied for ILR SET(M) visa at Solihull PEO last May 15, 2014. The whole process took 2 hours and 30 minutes. Visa was approved. What surprised me was the waiting time for my new biometric card. I was told it would arrive 7-10 days and I just received mine today, that is the 4th day from my application not counting Saturday and Sunday. Very efficient indeed!
