4th and 5th April should get a response next week I believe as 3rd April applications got their fee deducted this week from their accounts. So hope for the best. By the way I applied on 5th so all the best guys, keep posting your updates.

Hi there, I am glad that your application is being processed now. I paid using postal order so I have no way to know if they have start processing. Hopefully we will all get the ack letter soon. Please keep posted your update. Thanks!

Has your documents received by HO?
By the way, I have no clue for mine as well because I paid using postal order. It is so worrying but I believe we will be fine. :)

You can call and check about your postal orders have been cashed or not at post office postal order team on numbers 01246542091 and 01246542500 by giving the serial number on the receipt.

Hi Tier 4. thank you for your reply. Eventually, I called post office customer care twice regarding this matter. For the first time the staff transferred my call to royal mail. The second time they told me this cannot be done through the phone. That was really annoying! Anyway thanks for the number. I will call them and ask about the postal order. Apart from that, I don't really know what I should do with this visa thingy....

Hey fast love, I don't really know what's going on but as long as you received letter from HO, I think that will be fine as they have already start processing your application. The plus side is your bank hasn't rejected any payment. I think they will deduct your money soon. Meanwhile. make sure you keep sufficient fund in the bank so it will be ready when HO take it from your card.

This is just my opinion, hope some other peoples can help you further.

Biometric is in no ways an assurance that your visa is coming, everyone submits biometrics, the consideration process starts after this!
Given the current trends, the minimum waiting time is from around 5 weeks to god knows how long! But hey, keep the faith alive, you never know what surprises lie in store for you ! :D

If all the necessary documents are satisfied ( for ex. PSW uni letter, mba degree transcripts, mba certificate) -- for others , their respective marksheets or degree certificates from uni or college) 90 days £ 800 maintanence, visa fee payment £ 594 (bankers draft/post office/cheque/credit card/debit card) in my case its bankers draft because i dont want them to say payment is not cleared.. bankers draft is 100% fine, you'll get a acknowledgement letter with your dd copy as soon as ukba bank your dd, 2 passport size photograph (correct size- format))... this is what they want..

If every thing is right, even if they delay, one day or the other they have to grant visa .. Is nt it.?

If they still delay for months , after 6 months of your application , just say they decline.. ya, then with all your docs you can go to court..

If not there is no justice man..
