Hello Everyone. Thanks for you wishes.

To answer the questions.

The interview was conducted at my residence which is my registered company address but I do have a separate office room in the house.

The list of documents can be found in my earlier posts or from others who have listed its pretty much the same. Mind you the application was made last year so do not have it fresh in my head.

In the meanwhile I also had contacted MP that was before my interview and response was standard its complex so will take time. After interview I tried to write to MP twice with only response reached yesterday via letter that they have asked again for the reasons for delay and I have responded to them that I now have my visa approved. As I don't have my BRP yet not sure what date its started from but my approval letter along with the docs sent says 15th Jan it was approved. I shall have my BRP delivered today at some point.

Please let me know if I can be of any help to anyone who is looking to get their query asked. This obviously does not make me a professional or perfect answer go to person.

Thanks.
