Hi, I have applied for ILR under 10yrs and my wife will be facing same problem, she has spent almost 3 yrs as Tier 1 dependant and her previous stay will not be acounted to get ILR. I already knew this from my friends experience but still called UKBA to satisfy myself. I called UKBA and they said if...
Hi, UKBA did not stamp my passport in Feb 2004 and I called HO in August before I sent my application. The advisor told me that as an applicant I have to provide evidence of my stay in the UK for that period. I said to him I have entry and exit stamps from PK authorites but the guy said that you cou...
hi, Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un It is a sad news for you, a friend of mine had same experience few years ago and UKBA told him same thing so my friend could not attend his mother's funneral. I would suggest that you do not withdraw because they could take 2 months to give your passport back....

This document is Home Office guide to its case workers and a good reference point to make SET O applications. Thanks http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/documen...
Hi everyone, Good to see many of us have received Biometric invitation letters in last cuople of days. Looks like things have speed up at UKBA. But on the other side I have not noticed anyone receiving final decision for a while. April/May/June applicants waiting for final decision, please update th...
Hi, I don’t want to discourage anyone but there will be no good news. Home Office publish data at certain intervals and last time when they published the data they already mentioned that new figures will be published by the end of November 2012. I am not sure what we will achieve sending FOI request...
Hi all, Just came back home from office and Biometric letter was there. Took 3 months in total and 10 days since I sent complaint email to Home Office. Applied:13 August. Ack letter received: 21 August Biometric invitation letter received: 15 November dated 12 November. Hope others get soon. Shad.
Hi, I sent the email below to Home Office on 05.11.12 and shared the email next minute on forum requesting others to send the similar email but looks like not many of us have sent the email. I have still not received any reply from them but noticed few early August applicants have received their BMe...
Hi, I applied on 11th August and still waiting for Biometric invitation. I sent complaint email two weeks ago for applications between mid July to mid August but havent received any replies other than automated. I have a feeling we should be recveiving soon. Take care. hi day by day i am being sick ...

You can also refer to links below. http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/visas-immigration/settlement/brp/ http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/aboutus/contact/changeAddress/ I applied in this category...
Hi, You are lucky mate that they did not refuse your application otherwise you would have lost your fee. At least you have find out that your application is in process and they have gone through your form. Keep a note of return address and department number so you can contact them them in future in ...
Hi, I am on Tier -1 as well and I applied on 13th August and still waiting for Biometric invitation. I am not expecting my ILR decision before my wife’s visa expires in Feb 2013. I have explained in detail below so you don’t have to do all this research. I contacted a Solicitor whom I knew in person...

Hi everyone, I have taken the bold step and sent an email to Home Office this afternoon. Please see below what I sent, and I think if more of the same period applicants sent similar type of email, it may work and they dig out our applications. email sent to: UKBACustomerComplaints@homeoffice.gsi.gov...
Hi guys, Is there anyone out there who applied in late July/Early August who has received their biometric letter yet? I applied 16th August and have not, and from what i can gather on this forum, we all have not received our biometric invitation letter yet. Late August and even 1 applicant from ear...

Looks like things are completely random at Home office. May be the case worker who has got the early August cases is on holidays or he/she may be doing full investigation before sending the Biometric invitation and after it we can get passports back early. Some my friends who applied Tier-1 extensio...
Hi everyone, I can see that many of late August applicants are getting their Biometrics invitation but don’t see any for late July up to mid-August. Please share your timelines to share the pain. Thanks, Shad. My timeline is: Applied: 11th August. Fee taken: 16th August. Acknowledgment letter receiv...
[quote="Ged"]It is amazing how late August applicants all had their biometrics done while early August applicants are still waiting. How random is that?[/quote]
Agree with you Ged. I got ack letter dated 16/08 but no Biometrics yet.
Hi, I applied in August as well still waiting for BIO letter. Fee taken on 16th Aug, ack letter received on 21st Aug, since then nothing. Hope we all should get the letters soon, many ppl receive near 2 months. [quote="khanjaan"][quote="missniu"][quote="Hyper-PK"]Hi I'm...
Hi, When I said to HO guy on phone that UK does not out exit stamp on passports & my entry date into the UK could be verified from the stamp and date I left Pakistan to come back to the UK but that guy said you could have gone to another country as well. In the end he said “you are the applicant...
Hi, I had the same issue where they did not stamp my passport in 2003 when I returned back to the UK. I called HO in August 2012 before I applied and the guy told me even HO will have my landing cards etc but I have to send them documentry evidence that I was in the country for the period. So I send...
