It is difficult to get through the IVR and then the answer is " it is not 6m yet so no status update just wait"joelondon wrote:what was the outcome of the call ???? what did they say ??? was it easy to get hold of them ???fearless2711 wrote:I havent called them since last week, I am thinking to wait until next week or sojoelondon wrote:well nothing from my part as yet ....its been 5 weeks so far ..and m thinking to call the HO on Wednesday ....fearless2711 wrote:Hi All,

I think you can know where your application is just by calling them. They will usually tell you either of statuses (if you ask them specific question):77rus wrote:Hi everyone,
I remember some posts here where it was mentioned that normally HO is checking our credit files while processing our ANs.
As I understood, this is a part of "good character" checks.
If this is true, then checking your own file may help to understand where your application is at the moment.
Questions:
- at what stage this happen?
- which out of 3 agencies they use?
- does HO always make this checks or just sometimes?
Thanks.

1. under consideration (initial checks?)
2. awaiting allocation to team
3. allocated to team, awaiting allocation to case worker
4. with the case worker
5. decided
Well, you're right, but ... I was not lucky enough to get through initial telephone responce like "As I see, you submitted less than 6m ago, so unfortunately no information available at the moment I'm afraid..."shekel wrote:I think you can know where your application is just by calling them.

5 weeks ... its about time you get your decision. If they say decision was made, ask for DX-secure tracking number, and track it online + you can coordinate delivery. good luck.joelondon wrote:thank u very much ...well tomorrow m about to call that number ...i have been waiting for about 5 weeks now ...so i will try and see inchalah good news atleast ...wish for meshekel wrote:I think you can know where your application is just by calling them.

You suggest asking them like "Was my application already allocated to case worker?" instead of "What is the current status of my application?"
Dont understand the difference and the hardness of answering both questions...

i called the HO today and after a long wait in the queue ...the lady told me about the 6m rules ...what a useless people ...i will give them a ring by the end of the week ..or so....
any news anyone !!!! ???
Can I suggest not to call them so frequently. I am speaking from personal experience. They can tell you how many times you have called. The lady even told me when I had called last. She was not happy when they clearly say it may take up to six months. I know its hard not to ring them. But after I felt embarrassed when she told me how many times I had called (10 times in 1.5 months), I stopped calling them altogether and it took 1 month from that call. My application took 2.5 months although it was very straightforward.roshan_asher wrote:I know the feeling ... put the phone down and ring them again and say progress of the application again if they asked you when did you send it just say i can't remeber.. i will give my details can you look in your system. that's how i got them to read what is writen in the system they are lazy b****s after all you have paid over £700 pounds.
