Same-day Visa Application (In-person)

Mielsnow · Post by **Mielsnow** » Thu Nov 10, 2011 8:36 pm

Hi everyone,

My visa is set to expire end of Jan 2012, and I can't begin my app until after 23 Nov. I decided it's best to do same-day service because I'm also going home (outside the UK) for Dec holidays.

I know I'll receive my visa extension that same day, but I read that while they take your biometrics at the enquiry office, you don't receive that right away. UK BA doesn't really go into details about sending you biometrics -- can anyone help out with knowing how this happens, and what's been your experience after you've done same-day service and gotten your visa?

They have biometrics from my Tier 4 visa, but if I'm afraid that if I leave the UK without updating my biometrics then I won't be able to come back in.

If I have to send my biometrics back to the Border Agency, will I need to include my passport as well? Could I have them courier my biometrics to the country where I'll be on holiday?

:: Thanks so much! ::

All you need to know is explained in the document titled "Biometric residence permits - application process".

I do it in person. They send it to me within 10 days. Voilà, it's over. So that's it, now I'm reading it correctly? If so, cheers.

(I've read it before, but it conflicts with what others have posted about their biometrics processing. So I have to ask because I want to verify.)

Hi Guys,

At the PEO office, while evaluating the PSW application form, do they check with the candidate in case they have any confusion or doubts or if something is unclear? Are the authorities friendly? A friend of mine suggested me to carry a blank form with me so that I can make any kind of corrections, if required. My question is whether there is any scope during the process where the case worker points out any anomaly and changes can be made immediately?

Regards,
