It was indeed held back "pending further inquiries" but as stated earlier they haven't made any attempts to contact any of my client or accountant.
So, I guess it may take longer than 3-4 weeks.
I will certainly updated this topic as soon as I hear anything.
Regards
Q
Yes, and they may not provide a status update even after 14 weeks.usual_suspect wrote:I tried calling UKBA the other day and they told me straight away that they dont get any info on my application until atleast 14 weeks. Is that true?
No.usual_suspect wrote:Is there any way I/anyone can find out which stage is the application currently at?
Only UKBA can answer that question for sure but take 10+ working days at minimum (operating at their best efficiency).usual_suspect wrote:Also, what if I would like to withdraw my application? how many days would it THEN take for them to send my passport/docs back?
Request for a withdrawal of application after a decision is made has no effect as there is no "application" (yet) to be decided.usual_suspect wrote:also what if i call to withdraw my application and by that time the decision has been made, will they withdraw the visa?
If you stay in the UK for more than 28 days from the effective date of withdrawal (see section 4 of this document for effective date), any entry clearance application(s) in the future may be subject to conditions specified in 320(7B) unless 320(7C) applies.usual_suspect wrote:Also how many days will I be given to leave the county?
They will not retain your passport unless they wish to initiate removal proceedings against you. If you made an in-time valid application then you are covered by section 3c leave and not yet in breach of immigration conditions, so no reason for any removal proceedings! The passport should be returned to you, if requested.usual_suspect wrote:I heard they will only hand in my passport at the airport, when im leaving?
soal123, you have already been advised on the course of action. Please do not post the same question (time and again) in every topic relating to PEO application(s). If you have a further query, please continue discussion under one topic.sola123 wrote:im in the same situation as well.i applied on feb1,2011 thru PEO in crydon but till nw i ve nt gotten any information abt it.
What?? shocking grilling for 4hours?? thats really nightmare. What was the questions like? it would be very helpful if you can share the questions you were asked during interview.prisi wrote:hey..mine was a similar case.
I had my PEO on 19th Jan and after grilling for 4 hours, the case worker said my case decision cannot be taken same day and will need further investigations.
Till date i have not received any communication from UKBA homeoffice, nor my passport and other documents back... already 5 weeks completed for me and i still have no clue about my application.
Hi Majun,majun wrote:Hi Aditiya,
Thanks for your help. I had my appointment on 2nd March. They approved it the same day. I would day mine was a great experience. No questions from the case worker I just gave all the documents. The case worker was a very old man proper Brit very polite. He collected everything took a copy of it and gave back the originals to me. He then told me that it will take 1-1.15 mins to do the checks. He asked to me go out enjoy the sun and come back before 4. I submitted the application at 2.30 went out came back at 3.30. He called me and told things were fine and I would get the visa till 2013. He asked me to wait for sometime before he finished other formalities. He then gave me the approval letter at 4 and also apologized for making me wait for long..He was a man of manners I would say very nice person. It was all done. BRP would reach in 5-7 days. I am waiting for it. Thanks everyone !!!
