Unfortunately I havent received my BRP card yet, which means that I will probably not be able to travel. Unless they deliver it tomorrow, I am relying on it. I dont understand why they dont send the card in the same envelope as the documents and the letter of approval. Why are thet constantly putting us on hold?

Frutrating..
Praying that it will arrive tomorrow.

Congratulation. Actually I applied on 8/5 and done my biometric on 20/7. Do you mind telling me your country? I think country do make a different in this process.
Hopefully I will be as lucky as you are and will get mine within this week, My flight is on 20/9

[Arsenal007]

The date on both letter was on the 21st and they brought the biometric card first on Friday 24th but no one was at home to receive it. I got my document back on Saturday with passport and due to the public holiday i didnt receive anyfink on Monday and on Tuesday receive a letter from DX Courier service that they came on Friday that i have package from UKBA and i contact them immediately and went to there office with the letter and prove of identity and collected my Biometric Card.

I live in London.

Sorry, may i ask which legal representatives you used as I am really struggling to get through to my representative and fear the worst...

Sorry to make you worry, I said my legal representative is close down, but I am not sure if UKvisaandimmigration people are closed down or not but they are not responding to my emails or phone calls so I called UKBA they informed me that my documents delivery is returned back to UKBA.

Glad i asked now, im using the same company and have the same issue!!
One more question, which number did you call as i will have to now phone them too!

I called on 08706067766 select for general inquiry and explain your situation.. they will let you know if documents were sent or not and please go online and fill out legal representative section and change legal representative to yourself.

Have now made changes to my address, UKBA have confirmed that my home address is where documentation will be sent.

The problem will now be that my BRP will be exactly the same and I will have to get them to change my representative to myself and change my address accordingly..

@GURUDEV What did you do with regards to changing your details with DX Secure?

[VASEY]

Hi guys,

Well done to those who have received their docs back and those who have been infomed their application was approved.

You are not alone my friend, I am in the same boat , and I know there are so many others. Havent seen my family since 2006 , if that puts things in perspective. . I applied in May , the waiting, is not easy, needless to say.. but on this matter, we have little or no choice other than waiting. But coming to this forum , gives us a chance to at least talk about it, because no one else would understand what we go through.

Has anyone who applied in Mid-July 2012 received their Biometric letter?
I am more concerned about SET-O applicants.

[AussieSetO]

Okay so yesterday I got my BRP (11 days after my documents). So my full timeline is:

Applied Set O: 12 March
Acknowledgement: Sometime around 20th (I forget the exact date)
Biometrics Letter received: 3 May
Biometrics complete: 4 May
Documents received: 18 August
BRP received: 29 August
BRP dated: 16 August

24.5 weeks of waiting.

Still no sign of my husband's - same timeline as me. Looks like there are still a lot of march applicants waiting.

19weeks of painful wait and still counting, no confirmation even yet.
