Hi Freebird,

Have you tried to contact RoyalMail? Usually HO uses RoyalMail to send documents. Try to get in touch with them, they might be able to help you locate the docs.

Godd Luck!

I agree... Without role and list of responsabilities there is a very high change you won't get the points. Check the caseworkers guidance, it can be very useful.

I was informed by e-mail that a decision has been made. But maybe it's because I asked to be informed so I could arrange courier services to collect my documents.

Casework Guidance - REVIEWS

Hi,

I found this link and I think it might help those who intend to apply for review. It's the HSMP Internal Guidance for Caseworker v4.0 (Reviews).

I am moving to london with my husband. I would like some advice on accomodation for couples. Hostels seems good when you are moving alone, because they charge per person, not per room. So a couple would have to pay double... Any ideas?
