Thanks for your reply CR001.

On a lighter note, I know that you don't work for HO and thanks for confirming that!

Hi all again,

I'm sorry if I'm not clear in my query above. I meant to ask that what checks/further info may be required before an applicant is asked to submit bio metrics. Could someone who has the knowledge about this part respond please.

Many thanks.

Thanks Casa and secret.simon for your replies.

I have declared everything with HMRC, paid all my taxes and declaring complete employment history in my AN form too. I hope it won't be a problem as you guys mentioned.

Many thanks again for your help.

Hi Casa, thank you very much for your reply. Don't get me wrong if I contradict with your assumption that "You withheld information in order to succeed with your ILR application .." I might be wrong in not disclosing my 2nd job (weekend Job) at the time but as described in my previous post...

Hi noajthan, thanks for your reply.
