Can anyone advise if this is a decision? the fact that is recorded delivery is getting a bit worried.

:(

Yes its mostly likely,If the decision wasnt made they would have told you on the phone. They send documents back by recorded delivery and they send the BRP card by Dx courier... Good luck hun.....

Hi all,

Can anyone kindly let me know ukba's email address and phone number so I can find out about the progress of my spouse's FLRO application. We have been waiting for a long time now and no reply from UKBA. The last email I used came back with a delivery error due to the mailbox being full. My Spouse's application timelines are....

- First application sbumitted in March 2012 but returned because the wrong form was used.
- Correct form submitted: May 5, 2012 and received by ukba May 8 2012
- Biometric data submitted June 12, 2012
- BRP: still waiting !!!
- Return documents: still waiting !!!

Thank u all for ur good wishes. I really hope it is a good news though I am not keepin my hopes too high. My application is based on my british daughter who I have to with in order for the mum to go to work. They do not consider me as a sole carer so I am very worried there.

One thing I will say though, people shld not be affraid to chase up applications and use any support they can get to boost their application. In my case after about 6 month w/out hearing nothing from HO, I got my MP involved ans a few weeks later got bio appt although HO reply was they don't find my application compassionate enough. I waited another 2 months and wrote bck to my MP and got solicitor as well to draft a letter to HO to chase up and ask them permission to work. A few later I phone (today) and was told the news. Now let see what's in those envelop! My faith is in GOD's hand.

FLR O Refusal

Post by kayslay » Wed Apr 10, 2013 1:56 pm

I am wondering if you can help me, I have been viewing this forum for awhile and just got the courage to send a message.

I applied for Leave to remain under human rights A8, as I came here when I was 16 and have lived here 11 years.

Date applied: 3rd April 2012
Acknowledgment Letter: 12th April 2012
Biometric done: 3rd May 2012
Chased wit MP : 12th January 2013
Decison: Refusal 2nd April 2013

I just want to know what are my options regarding this, or what steps can I take because I have no children and my family are all in America, Cananda and here. I do have a partner who is on 3 years he got it off his daughter who is British, we have been living together for a number of years now.

Also if I appeal will it be allowed under the new rules?

Please any advice would be appreciated.
