clarification of T1(inside UK) process on UKBA web

Post by maisy » Sat Jan 01, 2011 2:20 am

Just called them and ask if they have moved backward, the lady who's responsible for checking process after 14 weeks told me she has no specific knowledge of it but believes it's an error, as they generally do not move backward.


before christmas, they published the following

During the week commencing 20 Dec 2010, we expect to be considering applications that were received on or before 2 Nov 2010.

However, it now shows below

During the week commencing 3 January 2011, we expect to be considering applications that were received on or before 26 October 2010.
does it mean that they are far behind schedule during the last two weeks and fail to reach the target? or it could be a typo?

Isn't that topic relevant to out of country applications? Or did I get it wrong?

from what i remember , they were processing application received on and before 22nd Oct during the week starts from 13th Dec.

If the recent update is correct, processing applications received on and before 26th Oc during the week starts from 3rd Jan.

It means they only have processed 2 days' delivery ( 23 and 25 only ad 24 is Sunday and hence no delivery) within 3 weeks ?? ( 13 working days)

can it be possible??

Dont have the insider information but its quite possible give the surge in the no of applications. In fact the aggregate cap figure till March 2011 was already reached 3.5 months in advance per UKBA's announcements.

i thought outside of country applications are processed in the country of application, and home office ( shieffield, called home office call center and confirmed this is the office which is responsible for tier 1 post) here should be dealing with in country ( which has no limit restriction) applications only, have i got this wrong ? :roll:

Nope, you haven't but I have, because of a similar thread on out of country apps. I stand corrected.
