Thank you for yr information. My application was approved 20th Dec and got my passport on 24th, but still waiting for visa. It has been a week now, I called DX they said they had not received any delivery to me yet. IT IS UNNORMAL. 0870 606 7766 is it this the number u dialed?? ty:)jitu.bhaskar1985 wrote:Application Sent: 1 December 2011
Application received: 5 December 2011
Biometric invitation email: 8 December 2011
Biometric invitation letter received: Never (So I have to go to ukba office)
Biometrics done: 23 December 2011 (Liverpool home office)
Passport received : 27th January 2012 (Royal Mail)
Biometric Card received : 28th January 2012 (DX Secure courier)
Just to notify other people who are waiting for a long time. Yes ukba helpline do provide information about your application if it is taking longer than usual time. I called them on 27th January and instead of going to general immigration enquiry option (they are rude) I went for option if your application is more than 6 months old. Just select that option and talk to them politely saying "I know my application is not 6 months old but can you please provide me tracking information about my application because its almost 2 month now" it didn't work for the first time but second time it worked and they informed me that my passport has been sent on 26th january and provided me the tracking number of royal mail. I hope it helps.

Resless waiting... trully hope to get it ASAP
Ask them to give you the job on a temp to perm basis. That way you can start as a temp employee and then once your visa comes through you can take it as a perm position.TheDon wrote:Application sent: 22-Dec-2011 (Special)

I hope it comes soon as I have a job offer which I've had to put on hold because of that small catch of 'not filling a permanent position'. But I know they can't hold the job for me for too long. Please UKBA hurry up. Lord.
