ILR application

[malchard888]

I have just done that and they have advised that I cannot make application without a valid passport and that when I do get it back from Manila then I should submit the complete application with a covering letter explaining the reasons why we were late applying. Any reasonable officer should view this sympathetically as it is obviously not a deliberate attempt to mislead but a genuine oversight.

Fingers crossed as there is nothing else we can do.

I really suggest you get a written proof of what UKVI has told you. If you can ask the help of your MP in getting a written proof of what you've been told, it would be helpful. UKVI sometimes will have different views in cases. Plus applications are looked on by different case workers and it's up to these case workers to give the decision.
