Simple Question, visa received, other document received, but not passport

Post by leihongchi » Sun Apr 08, 2018 12:01 pm

Dear all,

I think my case is straightforward and my question is simple. :D
My recent T2 application was submitted after an earlier refusal decision when my previous visa had expired. So that my passport was held by the UKVI the whole time, and I sent a photocopy with other documents for my T2 application (by standard service).
I received my T2 visa on 14th May, and received other documents the same day via another post, but not my passport.
I suppose this was because my passport was not retrieved for case working and will be sent back to me soon. But it has been almost 4 weeks.

May I just ask, is this normal? Or should I contact anyone?

Regards

Hongchi

You should have had your passport back with the other documents. Contact UKVI and if you don't get any joy quickly contact your local MP.
