Tier 1 PBS Newly Born Childeren Visa Lead Time (In Country)

techie_09 · Post by **techie_09** » Thu Nov 24, 2011 7:19 am

Hello Members,

I submitted postal application to get Tier 1 dependent visa for my newly born son on 20th Oct 2011. The payment was debited promptly on 22nd Oct but after that I haven't received any communication from UKBA for Biometric appointment.

1. Do you know what is the current lead time for biometric letter for this type of application?

2. I didn't submit my own (i.e. Main applicant) passport with the application which is I believe is not required. Can someone please confirm it is not required?

Thanks in advance

Thanks for your reply.

I haven't heard anything from Home Office and still waiting for Biometric appointment letter. I am bit worried because I have travel plans in January end.

Can you please tell me whether you submitted Main applicants (i.e. Tier 1 Holder) passport also?

Thanks

We called the home office before making the application and asked if we need to send the main applicant's passport and they said we have to so we sent that as well.

Hello all,

Please help me as I am very confused as my kids application as tier-1 dependant application is returned. I applied within UK and they sent me application back after one month saying that the payment page is not filled and application is invalid.
Which I am sure I have filled it. They sent back the application forms after removing the payment pages and I have no idea what mistake I have done. I am sure I have filled out the payment page correctly.

Please advice what shall i do next.

1- Shall I send a new application OR shall I appeal against it.
2- Do the main applicant needs to send his passport or the certified copies are enough.
3- What else shall I make sure before re-sending the application.

Thanks all.

Regards,
Ali

Couple of weeks ago I also called up UKBA and was advised to send my passport as well. I sent my passport promptly. Didn't hear from them about my application. It has been 7 weeks since I sent my original applcation.

1. does any one know will UKBA put my application in queue after receiving my application? or is there some other process like additional check etc.

2. If I withdraw my application citing my travel plans will I get refund? My card has already debited.

3. I understand UK born child can travel outside UK but they need Entry Clearance visa to come back to UK. If this is the case I may apply for visa outside UK (in case I withdraw my application).

Would appreciate if some one please can advice.

Thanks

Finally I received biometric appointment letter today. I have booked appointment for next Friday.

Any idea how much time it takes from biometric completion date?

Thanks
