Processing times

Applying from inside the UK

This page gives details of the processing time for applications made in the UK under Tier 1 (Post-study work) of the points-based system.

We received a high volume of applications for Tier 1 (Post-study work) before the closure of this route in April 2012. If you have applied under this category, and are awaiting a decision, we will contact you as soon as possible.

We will be processing applications in strict date order of receipt and attendance of your biometric appointment.

Please note that this date is only a guideline. Some cases may take longer to consider.

Ain't a breaking new any more

@Kumarpsw - What do you mean by 'only after bio metric they'll consider your application'? !. The bio metric was done on 23rd apr 2012 and the application have posted in for a psw decision on 10th feb 2012.

It means that no matter when you've sent the application, the actual consideration process starts only after you have submitted your biometrics and no decision is taken before that!

aftabkhan812 - Ok, so what the f.uck they've been doing from 23rd apr till today 13 jun then????

I submitted my case towards end of February. Given the biometric on the 27th of march at holborn post office. received back my documents yesterday with letter dated 9th June. I had sent a special delivery envelope with my application. So the documents were posted on the 11th. I am waiting for brp now. Apologies for not replying earlier to those who asked further details regarding my last post.
All the best.

Your case and timeline looks very similar to a dickhead I knew on this forum by the name of kartik_r.. Anyhow I don't work for those guys so I won't know what they have been upto, but can tell you for sure that you may have to wait much longer.., so muster up all the patience you can, cause you sure as hell are going to need it!!!

Hi guys, I am really concerned because I am supposed to move out from the house I am living now, this because the landlord wants to do some works. Given that I am still waiting for my Biometric and Docments from the Home Office, I would like guys to get information about the process to inform the Home Office of my new address.
If someone knows what do do, please just let me know I will really appreciate.
Thanks.
