Thanks again Casa.

Nobody even asked who he was or why he was coming in with me! My application was successful.

Thanks

Many thanks for your response Casa!

He went with me for the frl(m) but we were both so excited and confused that day that we simply can't remember why he ended up waiting outside during the whole process. So I though I would double check this time.

Thanks again.

Hi all,

I have my application at Croydon tomorrow but not sure if my husband will be allowed in with me as he is not applying and therefore I did not put his name down while filling the online booking form.

Thanks

We have submited my application with a letter of support from a friend.arguing he is close friend of the family and is ready to help us etc.he earns 3800 pm and rents a flat but i think his payslips and statements helped. beside,if you dont have family members who can help,within 7days,you will have...

1- The lady should write a letter (or you write it and make her sign) to explain that she is your friend and will always be there for you etc, that's why she is committed to help you so you will never be in trouble financially. UKBA usually require proofs like pay slips or bank statements of the per...

Yes. To be on the safe side just copy everything. You can not be penalised if there are too many copies but you can have problems if they expected a copy that you did not provide. It is much better to spend that little extra time and money in fotocopy than having your application delayed or refused ...

boonoochoupi - thank you for your reply. On the UKBA website it states - you must send a copy of every original document you submit. But I am not sure if they want a photocopy of every single document or only all official documents such as bank statements. This is what confuses me. Perhaps you appl...

Hello I personnaly provided no copies of any document at all. It can help the immigration officer to be faster in his job and you can have a copy of each document you sibmited if there is a problem in the future. However, It is not a requirement to submit originals and copies. Only originals are man...

Hi, 1: They do not seem to have offices were you can collect items.You might need to reebook a delivery to your adress, or any other adress you prefer (office for instance) 2: If it's DX, then it should be your biometric card. You should have received the grant letter few days ago (maybe it si delay...

We got a call from UKBA this morning saying the visa was granted and we can come and collect our paperwork at croydon.

I take the opportunity to thank everyone on this forum who's experience helped prepare the application.

I had the same situation (from tier 4 though). They did not want any more document on the day and we have been waiting 10 days and this morning, they called to say the further checks were done and everything is ok and I can come to collect my documents. If they told you about any specific doubt on t...

Hi,
Any news with your application or interview?

Hi, Sorry I came on the website too late to help you, Hope everything went ok with your application!

Please, has anyone already experienced such case? Or heard about what such checks?

Thank you

Hi all, I'm switching from Tier 4 using FRL(M). We used same-day service but they said they keep the application for further enquiries (1-2weeks!). We've been married for a month but actually together for like 2 years. We provided: -wedding and honeymoon pictures and paperwork -pictures and bookings...
