biometric invitation .. please suggest

Post by joanie » Fri Sep 12, 2014 2:37 pm

Hello moderators and everybody

I posted my Set LR as variation of FLR FP day before yesterday via special delivery and yesterday I received biometric invitation for the existing application. It asks to record biometric within 15 days and the letter is dated 4 september. Do I need to go for biometric soon or just wait for acknowledgement letter of Set LR?Pls give me your opinion.thanks

the letter is giving you a timescale to complete it regardless the acknowledgment letter so I would go and give my biometrics. I guess the sooner the better

Yesterday, got a letter from HO issuing a cheque refund for £ 0.15 ( yes, u read it right £0.15  ) on my spouse's name. My spouse had varied his application from FLR FP to FLR M on the same day I varied my application to SET LR on 10th of September 14. We had paid correct fees for both the sets thtough postal order. Yesterday I even received a biometric letter for my spouse again, but no acknowledgement letter for FLR M was received, though a letter was there stating thank you for application on permission to stay in the UK. I am in my wits end how did that refund happen? I mean I have paid just the right fees.Can anybody suggest me what should I do now?pls suggest.regards Joanie

Explain in detail what fees u pay for flr fp 601? and how much is the fees of flr m application?

when u vary your application from flr frp to flr m did u pay flr m full fees or difference of fees?

Hello Zee,
I paid £601 for FLR FP and the same amount for FLR M. I paid the whole fees not the difference. Yesterday we got the acknowledgement for both the SeT LR and FLR M. That 0.15p refund must be mistake from HO side but I dunno what should I do about it. May be I should wtite for refund of FLR FP fees now. What do you suggest?
thanks in advance Zee.

At this stage do nothing and wait for outcome of your flr m.

Once received the visa than ask for flr fp refund.

Did u give bio for flr fp?
