Hi,

My timelines:

Application Submitted: 4th July
Application reached HO: 9th July
Fee debited: 10th July
Got Reference Number and Payment confirmation: 11th July
Sent additional documents: 23rd July
Assigned to caseworker: 25th July
Additional documents reached HO: 26th July

I called HO today. The representative informed me that the case-worker is waiting for my additional documents. As mentioned above, the additional documents reached HO on 26th July. The representative mentioned that she has no information if the additional documents have been linked to the application.

Then I requested her to connect to the case worker. She gently denied the request and suggested me to wait for a few WEEKS.

Most people around my timeline have got their decisions, and I am pretty nervous now. Experienced folks, please suggest, what should be my next step?


Cheers!

doubt regarding birth certificate - since i lost my old birth certificate, i got a new one done at the beginning of this year(recently) from the local municipal corporation of mumbai (for birth n death).

The birth certificate is signed by the registrar and says that the information is taken from the original record of birth registered.

1 - The problem is that this letter shows an issue date: march 07, so will this be a problem???
though it is original, has a stamp and signed by the registrar!!!

2 - do i need to put this in exceptional evidence??

3 - shall i also include a notarised copy of my passport?

4 - do i have to mention in the cover letter that since i lost my old birth certificate, i got a new one done which was issued recently???

5 - or am i worrying for no reason?? n go ahead and just send the birth certificate and nothing else? (am claiming 20 points)

I had written to Hsmp team regarding this and this is what they had to say -

Dear Applicant

Thankyou for your email.
As long the birth certificate is original and is signed by a registrar this will be sufficient.

Kind Regards
Adele Brown

Just an update. Sent email to HO that I want to arrange for courier also asked about my case current status.

They repiled that a note has been updated under your case that you will be arranging your courier, so once decision will be made they will notify me through email.

Still my case hasn't been assigned to any case worker. Looks like a long queue...............:(

Hi Guys!!

Sorry for the late updation. MY application has been APPROVED.

a BIG thanks to the forum and all of the members. You all really helped me a lot.

It was approved on the 27th. However when i called yesterday (31st) i came to know that the application has been approved on 30th. I had sent courier arrangement fax around 15 days back even then the documents were mailed by Royal Mail.

Most surprising thing is: i have received my docs today (1st Aug)by normal mail all intact. I was not expecting them this early.

After checking the documents i found that the decision was made on the 27th (Friday) not on 30th (Monday) as it was told to me over the phone.

One more interesting thing when i called yesterday for the status the decision was not revealed to me. However it was my birthday yesterday and the CSR checked my DOB and revealed the decision as APPROVED stating "Birthday Gift".

Anyways it was my story. I also want to help all the members with my experience/little knowledge for the initial application.

Once again thanks for your precious help and support.

Again this forum really ROCKS!!!!
