Thanks for your prayers amaka 1207, visas received for wife and son today. We serve a living God.amaka1207 wrote:JAYSON65 wrote:amaka1207 wrote:Hello all,
This forum has been really useful. Just thought to post my timeline in case this might be of help to anyone. This is my 2nd period of FLR in the UK after an initial period of 33months:
Submitted application (Special delivery) - 5th May 2016
Application received - 6th May 2016
Acknowledgement letter sent -10th May 2016
Application Fee deducted - 9th May, processed on the 10th
Received another letter on Friday 13th May 2016 (dated 11th) requesting for biometrics
Also enclosed was another letter stating I has filled out the wrong version of the form, which was really confusing, because I was sure that I printed out the right version, only to check and realize that the form was updated on the 4th and then on the 18th of April (who does that???? only the UKVI ) and I had printed out the form after the 4th of April, filled it and sent it a month after without realizing the form had been updated.
Anyways, printed out the latest version, filled it out and sent it off (special delivery) first thing on the 16th, which was received on the 17th of May
Also sent off biometrics on the 14th May
Received another letter on 28th of May, requesting for a letter from both me and my partner's employers stating our current positions, period of employment, salary earned. They also stated that they need to make a decision as "promptly" as possible and the documents should be sent by the 9th of June. Also included was the direct case worker's address. I had only included payslips and bank statements as proof of myself and my partner's employment and pay in the initial application, but I guess this did not suffice.
Sent off additional information on 1st June (special delivery) received on 2nd of June.
Approval letter and document were returned on the 3rd June and I received them on the 6th June.
BRP - Received just now! 7th June 2016 12:09pm
All in all, it's taken just over 4 weeks, so if you are still waiting, just keep calm and trust God
Obviously I can say this now because I got my docs back, but truly I was just panicking for nothing. If your case is straightforward and all evidence is provided, you will receive your approval eventually.
Congratulations, our Lord is able. Trusting him too for my wife and son's 2nd submission after the initial 2.5 years. Still waiting since March 2016 with 3 documents sent back after application over the past months from requests by the Home office.
Thank you! I'm sure you will get your wife and son's documents soon. Just a matter of time. Looking forward to hearing your good news

DX courier for BRP.krishna6456 wrote:Thank you. Is this by DX couriers or just Royal Mail signed.
Please could you let me know how your passport and documents required? Royal Mail signed.
Fingers crossed mate, we had 3 letters requesting for extra documents from HO . Bank statements, signatures, passport (which was included in application ).e-lish1988 wrote:Hi everyone!
I have a quick question, we got a letter yesterday saying they needed bank statements, despite having pay slips. We sent them off the same day we got the letter but it wont be seen until Monday. Does this impact the waiting time? We are going away in August and still need to book our tickets.
Timeline:
Sent:
Confirmation and biometrics letter: April 27
Letter about NHS surcharge fee: April 27
Biometrics done and fee paid: May 3
Letter for bank details: June 10 (sent the 8th)
The letter we received yesterday mentioned June 22 which would have been the 8 week marker and we were hoping to have it back by then, or at least approved. We have a straight forward case and sent exactly what we sent last time (pay slips instead of bank statements). Should we still expect the 22nd or is time added on now?
I definitely feel like that is how it was for us.krishna6456 wrote:FFrom my experience if the case is straight forward you application will be in the queue until that 8 week mark is reached then only you application will be allocated to case worker.
