No you dont need to show any identification. just walk in and ask for the envelope, some post office put it on the counter so you can just walk in an pick one.

try call this number 0300 222 0000. they work from 7am -11pm. ask them if your application is in the system and if they say yes tell them to give you ur reference number so that you can call to book your interview very fast.

Goodluck dude :)

Yes, i did recieve my documents back today,i am waiting for my pssport still.you should ring IPS or go to online tracker to find the status of your application and if your on the system ask them for teh reference number for the interview,so you can ring and make the interview rather wait for the letter to come,i made my interview today my letter was too delivered today for the interview.Hope this help else try to goto posts on 174,175,176 you get a better idea.

Thank God, God is faithful, we got our approval today. I have lived in the UK for 10yrs and i have finally got the approval, all my workmates got theirs 4yrs ago. But God always has a plan, so if you are still waiting for your approval keep trusting in Him who sees and knows what goes on in the HO office in Liverpool.
Thanks for all the the advice and encouragement given on this forum. WOW!!! :D :lol: :lol: :lol: :D :D
