yes we still have her passport as you don't send this when using the checking service. I suppose i will have to call and ask the question then and see what confused answer i get of the agent on the other end of the phone :-) We have had the ackowledgment letter as we got that on the 13th Aug and pay...

We have had the ackowledgment letter as we got that on the 13th Aug and payment was taken about the same time. Since then nothing. I don't mind waiting but would at least like to know where our application is in teh never ending system Yeh - if I'd paid extra and used the checking service I would de...

WE applied using the checking service in Manchester in July as was told this would mean it was quicker around 7-10 weeks in total they said. Until now we haven't had our biometrics letter and my wife would need to fly by the end of October. Neil - to be honest, I'd love to say that they would hurry ...

Hi All, Ok here goes. My wife's SET(M) and one dependant is currently under review. We used the checking service and therefore my wife still has all her travel documents.

Thanks

Hi

We used the checking service from Manchester. Therefore we kept all our documents which includes my wifes passport. When they issue the ILR will we have to send her passport to UKBA or do we go somewhere to collect the visa? I am little confused as to how this process will work.

Hi All,

Are you allowed to apply for ILR set(M) application from abroad.

Thanks

Neil

i will call them on monday

i am trying online to get an appointment but it is not showing any dates available at all.......

All our paperwork is in order. The reason it was sent back is that they said they couldn't take payment from my account even though money was present. Our application is straight forward other than been late. All our other visa applications have been on time and straight forward. If we do it via PEO...

but if they let me do it via PEO surely it will be quicker even if late??

Hi All, Ok here it goes. We submitted our ILR application late due to me not having our original marriage certificate. Anyway the application went and i assumed everything was ok as i called UKBA a couple of times and they didn't indicate anything was wrong. However yesterday our application has bee...
