Hello, any advice will be highly appreciated.
I applied for ILR under 10 year long residency route. My biometrics was last Monday the 29th of June. I onlt just realised that I had an overspeeding ticket this year, they offered me a course and no points. I just passed my practical test as well this year January and started driving for the first time on my own after that. it was night time and I wasn’t used to driving in the dark, I felt overwhelmed, it was dark and I didn’t realised I was over speeding and suddenly camera clicked. I didn’t declare this to my ILR Application as I have completely forgot and genuinely didn’t thought it is an offence. Is that going to affect the decision they will make? Please advise. 🙏🏼🥺

Hi everyone, I’m hoping someone with experience of SET(LR) 10-year long residence or EEA route transition can share their thoughts.

I first entered the UK on 2 December 2015 with an EEA Family Permit as a family member of an EU national.

My immigration timeline:

• 02 Dec 2015 – Entered UK on EEA Family Permit (passport stamp evidence available)
• 19 Sept 2016 – 07 Sept 2021 – Held EU Family Member Residence Card
• 23 April 2021 – Submitted a new immigration application before my EU Residence Card expired
• 07 Sept 2021 – EU Residence Card expired while my application was still pending
• 2022 – Application was granted and I received my new BRP (Leave to Remain)
• Later continued with valid immigration permission and currently still have valid leave

I am preparing for ILR under SET(LR) 10 years long residence and I am trying to confirm whether there is any gap in my lawful residence.

My main question:

Because I submitted my new application on 23 April 2021 before my EU Residence Card expired on 07 September 2021, was my lawful residence protected while waiting for the Home Office decision in 2022?

Would that waiting period count as continuous lawful residence for SET(LR), or is there any risk of a gap because the previous status was under the EEA route?

Has anyone had a similar EEA Residence Card → UK immigration route transition accepted for long residence?

Thank you.
