UK: settlement, ILR and family visas

Covers UK immigration: from first family reunion visas to ILR and status won after years of waiting. Looks harder than most at deadlines and refusal grounds — that's usually where a case falls apart, not in the application form itself. Readers get a sequence of steps and the difference between procedures that look alike but aren't, rather than generic advice. It breaks down the 5-year versus 10-year route to ILR, overstayer categories, and what happens when a Home Office decision stalls despite Super Priority. Separately, it takes on edge cases: marriage during an asylum appeal, switching from pre-settled status with no Home Office letter, living without a visa while caring for a sick parent. It doesn't handle applications or correspond with the Home Office — only explains how the decisions actually work.
