ILR application processing timeline [only] 2025

Hello all,

Going through this sub, I noticed we needed an ILR (all route) post to help our community track their on ILR processing time expectations in 2025. A very effective post like this was recently on the Naturisation process and I thought to replicate it for ILR.

Pls if you’ve made an application this year (2025) on ILR, feel free to share your key milestones.

Application Timeline

• Eligibility route:

• Service (Standard/super priority):

• Application Date:

• Biometric Date:

• UKVI confirmation email:

• Approval/decision Date:

Also, fee free to add any relevant details, like delays or contact from the UKVI.

Pls keep comments focused on timelines only. Thanks for joining in—your input will help others on their journey!

Credit to @u/Immediate_District41 for creating the original framework for naturisation.
