Case Reference number missing from approval letter

[hsmp_apr2010]

Hi,

First of all thank you guys for all your help. Today I got my Tier 1 general second extension approved. But my approval letter is missing the Case reference number.

How important is the case reference number when making future applications (I'll be due ILR soon) and for any correspondence with UKBA? Is there a way I can contact UKBA and ask for the case reference number?

Any help will be highly appreciated...

Kind Regards,

You should be fine as your BRP card has its number and that is what they will need. Besides, they have your full immigration history.

Not that important. To be honest the only application I entered this HO reference was my citizenship application.

Thank you guys...

I think what happened was CW messed up the address on my approval letter. I luckily spotted it while checking it,

The CW gave me a new approval letter with correct address and told me that she has transferred everything accross from the old letter. But obviously she hasn't and I relalised it after when I reached home..

But as you guys mentioned its not important. Also I think the payment reference number should be unique to the application so is the number on the BRP.
