Congratulations!

Hey guys, Just wanted to let you know that I got my biometrics booking letter today! :D The only thing is, they got my name wrong and that's really weird because they got my name right when they sent the acknowledgement letter. So I guess I'll have to call them up on Monday morning! Congratulations...

You're gem, thank you :) I wonder if you have a choice in where to go to get the biometrics done?
Of course you can, you choose wherever you want. Post Office (which you have to pay) or any Public Enquire Office. :wink:

About Biometrics

Do you know one think that I was just thinking now? I will explain: When I received my Biometrics booking letter and I went straight away on the website to book it, I noticed that there was only one appointment date available (28/02/12) didn't matter how soon I put my availability and I think that t...

Timeline

Usually, the biometric letter should be sent out within 1-2 weeks after they have sent the acknowledgement letter. But this not always happens, isn't it? In my case, I didn't receive my acknowledgement letter because it seems that got lost by the royal mail. However, I received the biometric letter ...

Re: Biometric card received

Here's an update on our situation. After 6 months of waiting, we phoned UKBA but they wouldn't tell us anything. We wrote to UKBA and they did not reply. So, I wrote to my MP. He was quick to send an enquiry on our behalf to UKBA, and we received a message from UKBA that they would now assign our a...

Re: Still waiting

Still no news after 7 months. UKBA won't give any information over the telephone and have not replied to my letter asking why the application is delayed. Why bother providing a phone number and a postal address if neither produces any response? I completly agree, mattp. They are useless on the phon...
