Thats a non-issue.Ibrahim131286 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 18, 2020 6:28 pmHI guys , i applied in may 21 and idv app submission 27, went for appointment 15 and still waiting for decision
when i download my documents i didnot write the name of documents .pdf i just download it as it is like number 134455.bdf i didnot change that as i didnot know would that be mess for the case worker or this is fine .,
Same here. I think they have left us in limbo already. If they stick to their promise of processing earlier applications, most of us who applied in March April May should be receiving decision from HO CW buy now. My gut tells me they have piled up the IDV submissions and will drip feed them to HO but will focus on in-person appointment as it brings in more revenue.
Robin, you are not on your own. I submitted our applications including all the documents uploaded in March. I only got IDV app last week. I only had to the face ID verification. Completed it in 5 mins literally and submitted them all, all five applications. Its taking too long and I can't get anywhere with UKVCAS or HO. I'm just hoping someone will do some due diligence and get our from under the pilerobinsingh28 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 17, 2020 1:47 amHi All,
Me and my family submitted the visa extension application on 15th April 2020 and still haven't received anything from home office or UKVCAS. We havent been able to book a biometric appointment as no slots are available.
We are currently on the 10 Year Family Route and then we will get the ILR.
It has been 5 months and we have not recieved any email regarding biometric or anything.
Is there anyone else in the same situation? Who has applied in April and still havent been contacted by Home Office or UKVCAS?
I am getting a bit worried to be honest because some people who applied way after me for example, I know someone who applied in July and they got their biometrics done and now waiting for the BRP's to arrive.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions.
Kind Regards!
Robin
Congrats null1639. It looks like the IDVapp is effectively useless. In person appointments trumps it. Will be looking for appointments for my who familynull1639 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 18, 2020 12:48 pmI finally received approval today from nationalitycaseworkdecisionservice@homeoffice.gov.uk

I went to Lansdowne Croydon yesterday for Bio-metrics considering I didn't hear any news after 3 weeks submitting IDV. I received approval today AM. Now let's wait for ceremony which hopefully will be done less than 12 weeks ! Thank you so much for this forum. Good luck everyone !
@soul_mickey, my personal conclusion is that it goes fast than the IDVapp. My personal opinion: i think the IDVapp has been a cover up to allow UKVCAS get back to normal person appointment servicesoul_mickey wrote: ↑Fri Sep 18, 2020 2:28 pmdoes that mean booking an appointment even after an IDV submission was the right thing to do?null1639 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 18, 2020 12:48 pmI finally received approval today from nationalitycaseworkdecisionservice@homeoffice.gov.uk

We were planning to do this on 21 September 2020, but we are still working on final testing with UKVI. We’ll keep you posted about when this will happen, so keep checking this service status.
If UKVCAS received your application on or before 11 September 2020 you should have received an email inviting you to either book a UKVCAS appointment or to download and use the IDV app.
If UKVCAS received your application on or after 12 September 2020, please continue to check this page for updates. We will refresh this page next week to let you know when you can book a UKVCAS appointment or use the IDV app.
UKVI will send updates to customers with an application in progress over the next 2 weeks to let you know what’s happening with your application. Please be reassured that your immigration status is not affected while your application is in progress.
@ CULLINAN, does this apply to all applications?
I am not sure. This is what the official update says. We will see how it goes.
Well you don’t need to , if you upload and submit your facial and supporting documents via app, then you are ok, However it is believed that the decision will be made quicker if you attend for the appointment (based on the user’s experience) .Kamana wrote: ↑Sat Sep 19, 2020 10:43 pmHi I submitted my application 2 days ago, after reading this thread I am confused about the new process for the biometric appointments.
My understanding is that I will get an email when I have to use the IDV app? Then I will have to upload my picture onto the app, (but documents are still uploaded onto the website)?
Does this mean that I will still have to book an appointment on the website and pay for the appointment? If we don't have to book an appoint why is everyone talking about free appointments?
Can someone please explain the new process for me?
Thanks
1) you will receive an email if your previous biometric can be reuse or not. If not you will be asked to book appointment at UKVCAS centre.Kamana wrote: ↑Sat Sep 19, 2020 10:43 pmHi I submitted my application 2 days ago, after reading this thread I am confused about the new process for the biometric appointments.
