Biometric on or after 8th Feb: any news?

Post by rguabiraba » Thu Mar 01, 2012 9:32 am

Since the updates on the applications are rather slow lately, does anyone here had the [b]biometrics on or after after 8th Feb and got the passport and docs[/b]? The 4 weeks (a standard) are now approaching and I will really need my docs around mid March. Stressful...
Very, very slow service for a very HIGH fee!

cheers and let's share guys!

Well, [b]4 weeks[/b] is a reasonable average time based on many posts here. Not a rule, but normally consustent. I still have some hope my docs will come this week...
Please be in contact guys, people are NOT updating the[b] timeline[/b] at this moment... I will put a post there as soon as I get my docs.

Cheers

OK Guys good news- I have just received my Biometrics card and the passport is on its way and hopefully I will get it tomorrow. I will be updating the sticky timeline once I have everything by tomorrow. Also, interestingly I asked my HR to check my COS status history yesterday and apparently someone in UKBA used my COS at 8.15 am on 03/03( sat)...strange, Good luck rest of you guys.

I sent an e-mail to DX today with my postcode and name. They got a parcel for me to be delivered tomorrow.

Hope everything is fine, if it's a DX parcel so it's my BRP.

Cheers
