Have not received biometrics but need to go abroad

Post by thinkingagain » Thu Jul 16, 2015 8:36 pm

Hi - I have not yet received biormetrics for my british citizenship that i had applied on 08th July. I have to go to India as i have some emergency end of this month and can see that i can return only after a month. Is there any suggestion of what i should do? Should i call UKBA and inform this or any advise. Thanks in advance.

Once the biometrics letter arrives you have 15 working days (from date of letter) to enrol your biometrics.

If you are a no-show you should receive a second (& final) warning letter; you then have 10 working days (from date) to enrol.
Failing that your application will fail.

It would be prudent to contact HO asap if you risk missing those timeslots due to absence.
The alternative would be to find a relative or friend who can deal with the matter in India so you can keep your application on track.
