Hi, I applied via NCS Bracknell on the 15th of March, I believe it got to HO by the 18th according to NCS. Yet today is the 27 of March and no fees have been debited. I am a little concerned as from what I can see most people get the fees debited in 7 days or less. Did this happen to anyone else, a...

I applied via NCS on the 13/03/13 and they still have not debited the fee :( gave debit card details. Not sure if anyone else facing such delays? Me, I applied on the 15th, and still nothing has been debited from my credit card. It appears that the price increase has caused a boom on applications, ...

Hi, I am a bit confused: I arrived to UK on spouse (to BC) visa on the the 17th of March 2010. I got approved ILR in May 2011. As spouse I am elligible to apply to BC after 3 years. I have called NCS and the only avialble booking is for Friday the 15th of March at 3pm. Do you think it will be all ri...
Yeah I had my ack letter and pay taken out. But it is worth giving it a try as it asks, if you submitted your papers prior to your visa expiring you are still able to work. Maybe if you also send proof delivery it should be fine. It's worth a try, you've got nothing else to lose. Hi R&F ,Thanks ...
That is not true, when I was applying I was being made redundant. An my current employer used the checking service to see if I could work and the outcome was positive. I know I was not assigned a caseworker because I had asked my MP to expedite and I had just gotten a letter from him saying that it ...

It has been sooo slow for the past 2 weeks. I think only about 3 people from this forum have received anything since. Congrats Balu 114! According to the letter from my MP I should have gotten my papers back this week, but with the Bank Holidays coming up, I doubt it'll be here till mid June if anyt...

I've just realised that the UKBA times now state that they aim to process 95% of settlement applications within 12 weeks and the remaining 5% within 24 weeks. If I'm not mistaken, it never used to state 12 weeks? I think it was abit longer last time i checked? but i might be totally mistaken. Anywa...
