According to the website, 95% of decisions are made within six months. According to an expat forum I'm on, decisions are taking no shorter than two months at the moment, but we won't risk it.
You can take it whenever you want within the two years. I'm applying in person for ILR at the end of Feb. There are supposed to be some major changes coming with ILR in April so keep up with the news.
eeekk hope its not a huge price increase! I have just paid of a credit card to keep clear to pay for the ILR visa
I passed my Life in the UK test!!!!

AS far as I am aware the changes are affecting those who apply for ILR through work visas (tier 1 & tier 2) basically work visas are no longer going to lead to the right to apply for ILR. The right to apply for IRL from a spouse visa is not changing, although you will no longer be able to apply if you have unspent criminal convictions (although in reality I guess people will just appeal through article 7 of human rights and get the visa anyway!)

Make sure there is 48 hours between passing the test and going to the office. They told me this at the test.
I'm taking the Life in the UK Test on Thursday, and I'm SO nervous!
Then on the 23rd (the day before my birthday), I'm going to hand in my ILR app. in person. Yikes.

I am here on an ancestry visa, my OH and I could get married but I'd rather get the ILR first and have a proper wedding rather then a quick one at the registry office

Why would you have to get married in a registry office? My husband was here on a post study work visa when we got married & we had a big wedding in a church
I passed! Woohoo!
