There is a problem at the British Deputy High Commission systems. I applied for Tier 1 yesterday and was told this by the lady at the biometric counter.

Hello erravi - Good news from you!

Are you aware if any verification took place in your case? Do they do it for all applications or only where they have a doubt of genuiness of applicant?

Thanks.

Yes they said the BHC was facing some systems issue.

Who is doing the integra job now as integra forms were not taken by them. Even they didn't take a set of photocopies of the documents. I had taken along two sets.

Integra verification has been stopped since Dec 1. I think BHC is processing without integra verification.

I applied for Tier 1 (General) Migrant category on December 2nd '08 from Mumbai.
The reply I get via sms is 'Your application is forwaded to the British HIgh Comission'.

Due to technical errors all the workings have gone haywire.

What I want to know is, dont they have an Integra check?? Does anyone have any idea how long will it take for the visa to get processed.
