So no matter when you applied, If you gave your biometrics on 23rd April, thats when your file would have gone into the queue for consideration. Now it is unfortunate that the gap between your application is very huge but be aware that yours is not the only case like this. I know at least 2 friends who had to first wait a month for the acknowledgement letter and then another month for the biometrics. So reality is no matter what you do or say here, its not going to affect your application in any possible manner unless of course you want to withdraw your application which I am made to believe is taking 20 days currently!
and of course lady luck .! Have faith in God and pray things work out for you fast.!! ANd always remember, everything happens for a reason..!!! Feel better soon bud .!!Thanks for those encouraging words dude. I'm 100% sure that my application is still waiting in the backlog with 100's/1000's/100,000's ( god only knows which is it exactly) of other applications who've applied during the closure of the employment route (Mar 20th to Apr 5th 2012). Its really unfair to put my file under their files. My University visa and Immigration advisor has got a email id of few people from Sheffiled office but she refused to share thier contact details with some reason or the other. Anyways, i dont really give a f*uck about her as she clearly mention the university will help only on going students and not the students who've passed out.aftabkhan812 wrote:Hey Karthik, dude I cant feel sorry enough for your situation seriously !! I really really sympathize with you and I wish I could tell you when your wait will end but unfortunately , I dont think anyone here has the slightest clue of when their misery will end! Just one thing for you, DONT LOSE HOPE and dont base your case on others news and information.. , each case is unique, for all you know you might get ypurs tomorrow and people who have done it earlier will get it later..!! Its all dependent on how efficient your case worker might be
Dude they dealing application till 23 march and 28 march i think still 3 more weeks 2 go....kumarpsw wrote:Can any body knows about the biometrics done on 28 march 2012. If you know any news update please
Hi, how did you come up with 3 weeks, does this mean they are working the whole week for the biometric enrolled on one day? I have also given biometrics on 28th of March & I am very desperate to travel. thxRedempless wrote:Dude they dealing application till 23 march and 28 march i think still 3 more weeks 2 go....kumarpsw wrote:Can any body knows about the biometrics done on 28 march 2012.

Hi guys, I have enrolled my biometrics on 23 rd march, still I am uncertain how long it will take. My perception is it will take 1-2 weeks for 23 march only, as at the moment no one who did biometrics on 23 march have received anything. I also saw a pattern in biometric registration like 16th march 19 march 21 march 23 march 25 march 27 and 28 march most of the people have submitted on these dates as all received letters in like a series of bundle. So I think for 28 march it might take quiet more longer. Rest is in the hands of godMas2012 wrote:Hi, how did you come up with 3 weeks, does this mean they are working the whole week for the biometric enrolled on one day?

You are lucky to get such a nice employer kjkansas. But my employer is not really happy with this idea. They say that I can start only after getting my PSW. I have lost my hope about this job now. Me and my employer communicate through a recruitment agency which might have caused some misunderstanding. The only thing which I can do now is 'wait for the PSW' and continue cursing UKBA.kjkansas wrote:What I did was this: I assured them that because the visa is points-based, and I have the points necessary and have never submitted false information or committed fraud on an application with the UKBA, I will be getting the visa. Of course, there is still a chance I won't get it, but you have to think about yourself in these situations!RenuRamesh wrote:Thank you so much for this post... My psw application is in process. I am offered a fixed-time contract job (for 2 years - till my psw visa expires) and the employer wants me to join next week. Your post guides me what I need to do... Thanks againkjkansas wrote:
If you have copies of your documents -- which you SHOULD, since it would be really silly not to make copies of everything before you sent it all in -- you can give those to your employer and they should be able to check with the UKBA that you have a standing application with them. I gave in my PSW application acknowledgement letter along with the copies of my old visa and my passport, and I've been working on a fixed-term basis at what will become my full-time permanent job once I receive the visa.
Just because you don't have the original documents does not mean you can't work. Any employer who says this is wrong.
I then asked if they could hire me on a fixed-term basis until I get the visa in the mail, and then switch over to a permanent position. They were fine with this and offered me a contract saying that I was hired for this job temporarily while I wait for my visa and will be a permanent employee when my visa arrives. I supplied copies of my old visa, passport, acknowledgement letter, and diploma for them, and let them know how to verify with the UKBA as to whether I made an application for a new visa while my old one was still valid.
Once this was all checked out, everything was fine! You can work as many hours as you want while you wait, so the employer does not have to worry about hour restrictions (as long as you aren't still studying!).
Good luck!
