Whew, ok, thanks! That's good to know.

Hi, I had a biometric-enrolment appointment with UKVCAS about a week ago. However, when I log in to the UKVCAS website, I still see a "Manage your services" button with an option to cancel my (past!) appointment; an option to upload more documents; etc. (Although all the other documents I'...

Hi rays2013,

Have you already requested the proof of non-acquisition of British citizenship via form NQ? I was wondering about your processing time/whether you've already received yours. (I applied three weeks ago, though understand the 10 day processing time no longer applies due to COVID).

Thanks!

Hi CR001 - thanks for your reply. My problem is that the South African High Commission in London is currently not holding any in-person appointments, due to COVID. Their website also clearly states that I need to have registered my foreign marriage with Home Affairs in RSA before they can process my...

Hi - thanks for the reply! Sorry, I should clarify that I am applying for ILR and then want to apply for British citizenship after that.

Hi all, I'm a South African who will be applying for ILR via SET(M) later this year. I would like to retain my South African citizenship, and have a couple of queries about this process, though unfortunately South Africa House in London hasn't answered my calls or emails for the past few weeks. So, ...

Thanks for the advice babymama. My current visa (tier 4) is actually valid for quite a while still - this application however was to switch to a spouse visa. So hopefully withdrawing my application won't make me an over-stayer. However...both my wife and I need to travel regularly and it's quite cri...

Unfortunately still haven't heard anything back from the Home Office. Letters and emails unanswered; phone calls all unhelpful. Is it likely to delay/jeopardise my application if I put in a request to have my passport (and my wife's passport) returned, so that we can apply for visas (not UK) for upc...

Thanks for the reply - I called them yesterday, and unfortunately they just told me that they are unable to access my application unless it was made more than 8 weeks ago, in line with their published service standards. (When I called 0121 7133229, they said they could only discuss it if more than ...

Hi - not sure if I'm posting in the right place, but here goes. I applied at Solihull PEO/Premium Service Centre under FLR(M) earlier this month. Straightforward application, ticked all the boxes, had biometrics enrolled; but the case worker asked me to send extra stamped bank statements (my bank ha...
