No biometrics yet

Hi guys,


I hope this finds you in good health.

I live in England and I applied by post in March, my application was received 25th March precisely and my debit card was deducted the HO fees on the 9th of April, now I know everyone would want to ask why didn’t you just submit ONLINE ? Please dont

I guess my question is, is it normal to wait this long to get a biometrics email/ letter from the home office, and were they supposed to have sent it with the acknowledgment email I received way back on the 13th of April?


Thanks for your anticipated replies

David

Thinking back to my own paper application a few years back at the time they sent the acknowledgement by post together with the biometrics invitation (at a Post Office). These days biometrics are done at UKVCAS only I believe so you should get some kind of communication from them. Applications made on paper are quite rare now and most recent applicants won't have experience of that path. I also note on the UKVI web site that postal application may take longer than online. If there are ay contact details on the acknowledgement email try and contact them.
