Out of country application (Russia).
A friend was flying to uk and posted my form on the 12th March. Application received 14th March. Payment taken a week later.
No reference number received and no contact from HSMP team.
Today (2nd April) phoned HSMP team, got told forms posted back on 30th March, after long wait on phone told application approved
Wanted to get documents collected by courier but as wasn't contacted so couldn't do this.
As they are now in the post back to Russia can anyone tell me how well packaged they are likely to be? Concerned as contains many original documents.
Also does anyone know how long (from experience) it is likely to take to receive them?
Does anyone know the form number that is needed to apply for entry into the UK now the HSMP has been approved?
One final thing, does anyone have any tips on the entry application regarding questions asked, forms needed etc?
Many thanks for your help
