Hi RAJBIS, just wondering what's the name/sign shows against the Person who received your documents (when you check thru Royalmail)?
Mine showing some guy name 'Dell', not sure if genuine. Cheers

HI Picassa,

Mine shows something like this


Printed Name: DAIE
Signature Time: 8:44:00GMT 05/04/12

I guess nothing to worry about, should be genuine!! Did you check if the money has been deducted from your account?

No, still waiting. Looks like at the moment they dealing with application posted on 2nd.
Thanks for promt reply!

Guys Any updates, I too applied on 04th, and received at home office on 5th.. as per the status now, our fee should be deducted by friday.

Well...checked my bank account today, no updates, so not sure. I guess it might happen some time next week, i will keep you all posted if anything happens, please do the same!!

Hi Dude, congrats.. How did you pay your fee? Debit card?

Many Thanks Mr Reddy, payments via CC

Did you receive your acknowledgement letter or ref no ? What about the biometric letter?

its been like 3-4 weeks i have received the acknowledge letter, waiting for biometrics..hoping this week, fingers crossed!!

Hi Did you receive bio metric letter please, thanks.

No not yet mate, how abt you?

Guys, seems like most of the applications received at the home office on the 5th April have received their biometrics, i havent received mine yet.

any others in here same as mine???

I havent received my bio metrics letter yet. my application reached to the home office on the 5th April. But i see people with application received date on th 10th of April are getting their bio metrics. Any ideas guys? really worried!!!

try emailing at this address
[email protected]

Also try calling
0870 606 7766
option 4 followed by option 1

@RAJBIS: Did you got your Biometric Done?

If not then here this...

The delay in sending Biometric letter is due to Bar Code issue (they have more than 1000 batch of barcodes which have issue and print is not getting generated) It happened to my Daughter's Bio Invitation letter and it went through for me and my wife though I have applied on 2nd Apr and I contacted them on regular basis via phone, emails. So UKBA has booked an appointment for Croydon, we went there and completed on 13th Apr. So, I will suggest to call them on their public enquiry number option 4 and then 1 and wait for 20 min in a queue.

Reason of calling and chasing them, as it worries me since we 3 people (incl families) applied by post on same day. Money got deducted on same day (4 may) and my biometric got delayed.

Hope this will trigger you to call them and book an appointment and this is the best option to visit here. This update of mine is not to make you worry but making you aware.

Hi Rajbis, ,in the same boat . not received biometrics letter yet .

@uktiervikki : thanks for the info but calling them on the public inquiry is of no help as they are asking to write to the address on the reference letter which is tier 1 general office.

Did they offer to book in appointment or you requested it

@ Vikki and @Siraj1234, i have been calling them twice every week from the past month or so..not great deal of help from them...i have given my bio metrics yesterday as the bio invitation letter is only vaild ofr 15 days and i have just a few days left..and i was told by the UKBA that my wife's biometric invitation letter was posted last friday, but havenbt received yet. I will give them a call today.

Please keep us posted with the updates

Cheers

Congrats you did receive the biometrics letter , when did you receive it ?

@ Siraj1234, received my biometrics on the 18th June, BUt havent received my wife's biometric yet. I was tol that they have posted the letter last Friday yet to receive!!

Whats your case?

I called them today & they said some letter has been posted , when i enquired is it biometrics letter, the lady said i dont know but something has gone out presumably it is biometrics .so hopefully it should be here in a week as they post via second class.when i enquired about dependants letter they do not have any info & cant comment if the dependant letter has also been sent.

Hi Siraj
What number are you calling them on to get this info?

@AKS7: 08706067766 option 4 then press 1 . u would probably have to wait for atleast 20-25 mins before anyone answers.

Guys,

I have given my bio metrics on the 27th June and for my dependant on the 10July (There was some problem with my dependants application, hence the delay).

As the UKBA home office stating that they are reviewing applications made on or before 16June, i am just wondering what will be the biometric date in my case, will it be considered as 27th June or 10July. Please pass on your thhouts based on your experience.

Many Thanks

Hi, did you have overseas earning? I think my case is the most complicated case in the world. It all depends on overseas earning.

Hi,

Mine is kind of peculiar case, I have applied with 1 dependant. I have given my biometrics on the 27th June and my dependant on the 10th July (as her initial biometric letter didn’t scan at the post office, so UKBA had to send one again).

So what would be the biometric date for my application Will it be 27th June or the 10th July? (need inputs from you guys as the case workers deal with applications based on the bio metric dates) How will the case worker look at it?

Also i need to travel on the 4th August sent a complaint email with my travel plans, but no response on that yet. Will they really consider these things?

Has any one experienced like this?

Many Thanks

I am very much hopeful. But let see. Just wondering if you can please suggest me where I can put my fast processing application and to whom and how?

Hi Rajbis, have you got any information which date UKBA consider for processing - Bio leter sent date / Bio given date ?

Please put your Biometric done date in the reference number column.
It would make it easier to track applications. Whether u have been approved or not please do so.
