OLD FLR(M) waiting times Thread

[deo]

Hi. I got my documents. They were all sent by recorded delivery and I didn't include a return envelope. Just wanted to let you know yours should be fine.[/quote]

Hi ronimcm,
Thanks for the updates. I have already sent a special delivery envelop before your update.
I am now waiting for HO to send them. I will post update as soon as I get any news from them. Thanks again

[NatVer]

I applied for my FLR (M)

Application sent 15/03/2016
Received by HO 16/03/2016
Payment taken 24/03/2016

And I did not receive anything from the HO. Should I be worrying and contacting them? If so, does anyone know if there is a contact number or something?

Thank you!

Update
Application sent 15/03/2016
Received by HO 16/03/2016
Payment taken 24/03/2016
Acknowledgement Letter received: 07/04/2016 dated 05/04/2016
Letter request to submit Biometrics: 07/04/2016 dated 05/04/2016
Biometrics submitted: 08/04/2016

And waiting....

Anyone else with roughly the same timeline?

Yes quite similar, my application was received by HO a day before yours, my letters came through a bit earlier , but sure its nothing to go by as each case is dealt with individualy, best of luck in this waiting game

Thank you, that's very useful to know. I'm slightly worried as I really need my brp to switch jobs. Have you heard anything to this day?

[Emkerr]

Nothing yet. Hopefully not too long

Jason65 yours should be this coming week as our timescales are quite similar. Looking forward to the update!!!


Hcl...what is your update?

No word yet but I feel there might be a bit of a delay on mine due to the complication with payment. Fingers crossed it won't then have to also go to appeal!

Congratulations to you, I bet it's a relief!

I submitted my FLR (M) application on 10th March 2016
Registered my biometrics on 21st March 2016
Received my biometric card on 18th April 2016
Received my documents on 20th April 2016

Can’t remember exactly when the payment was taken or when the Biometric letter came. I also had to send in some additional documents that were not ready at the time of application, which all came back together. I did not include a return postage envelope and the documents came back with signed delivery. I think for the amount of money we’re paying, its not asking for too much really, if I dare say so.

So, just over 5 weeks turnaround time, which is pretty impressive. I anticipated it would take the prescribed 8 weeks. Best of luck to everyone waiting

Congrats Dada,
We submitted our application a week after you. by looking at your timeline,We can expect our card any time next week then. See the additional documents you are talking about,Did HO ask you to submit them?

Thank you Deo,

Yes, hopefully your card will arrive very soon. No, they didn’t ask (I sent in original bank statements that were not available at the time of submission) Don’t worry, if they need anything they would have called you to ask

Good luck

Any update for those still waiting?

Update on my timeline:

Application sent: 3/3/16
Application arrived at HO: 4/3/16
Letter from HO: 16/3/16 dated 14/3/16
Biometrics Letter: still waiting
Fee deducted: Funnily enough still waiting...

And this is where I'm at now. I was beginning to worry that my fee was yet to be taken from my account but it seems in my instance they're doing things a bit backwards.. We'll just wait and see what happens!

Further update!

Application sent: 3/3/16
Application arrived at HO:4/3/16
Letter from HO: 16/3/16 dated 14/3/16
Biometrics Letter: 23/3/16 dated 21/3/16 (because of the Easter holidays I will have to wait until next week to submit them)
Fee deducted: I received a letter on 23/3/16 dated 21/3/16 saying that my application was incomplete as there had been an issue with processing my payment.

Apparently I had not submitted the correct information regarding my account. They said I might have written the wrong number down or perhaps there was some confusion in the HO. I have now submitted a bankers draft to ensure there are no further complications. I must say I find this incredibly irritating. As far as I'm aware, I had not made a mistake on the application form. I had read over it a number of times and my partner had checked it a number of times. And now because of human error I've had to resubmit my payment and waste more time. What's frustrating is they took 3 weeks to notify me about this. But I suppose there is nothing I can do but wait.

Will update on any news.

FINAL UPDATE

I received all my documents back on Friday and have been granted Further Leave to Remain! So relieved! The whole process took exactly 7 weeks which included the complication with payment. Hope others hear good news soon! Best wishes

Congratulations! There was a problem with my payment as well (sent my application on the 19th of March without realising that the fee had increased the day before) so I am hoping it won't cause too much of a delay!

Hi, does anyone have any updates regarding their application?

It has been quiet so far. Going 8weeks now and no confirmation yet. Really annoying!
