Hi everyone, I have a biometric appointment for naturalisation tomorrow, there is one thing that I'm not quite comfortable with- there is a box in the document checklist- proof of living in the UK for 5 years. My understanding is that this is essentially my passport with all the UK entry stamps, how...

Your appointment is after you applied/paid online. The appointment is basically for biometrics, as part of the process. Travel after you have applied doens't need to be listed. Do they take any documents at the appointment or only scan it? In other words- I will book an appointment in the beginning...

At the UKVCAS portal, there is a section for uploading optional documents, are we supposed to upload pdfs of tickets to prove travel history in the respective section?

If anyone is in similar situation- as far as I know HO doesn't allow two applications at once, but when...

I have submitted my application on 29th if July, completed the idv verification on 30th of August and yet no news yes, you are allowed to. I just answered the same one post above y...

I applied for SET(M) in August and got the decision today (10th Sep). I followed this forum since July and decided to apply for SET(M) rather awaiting for Priority service. After submitting biometric, I received the decision even before 36 hours, which is super quick. Without this forum, I might st...

I dont care anymore, enough of waiting and looking at people applied way after me and way before me get...

Congrats to you :) Are there sufficient evidences that indicates in-person appointment results in faster decisions than IDV??? Thanks @Luluokis29, @krishnakumarg, @Toxic and @Yash123 Given the evidence so far, the physical appointments does seem a little faster but it's also probably related to the...

@Cullinan thank you. I will try to follow it up tomorrow but I think the deadline includes the 7th too so they may tell me to wait until Tuesday to raise it. I've given up hope now. You are not alone! June 16 here. I’m completely hopeless today. 😔 I really want to DM and email today but it’s fruitl...

Finally got idv app invite (25.06 application date),submitted straight away,hope it won't take too long. In my case the time is really crucial, as this application is for tier2 extension till the end of November - once I get it I hope to have enough time to submit ILR set(0) application.
