PLS help not received biometric enrollment letter

Post by gdk199 » Wed Apr 22, 2015 9:56 am

Hi all

I submitted my tier 2 application on 30 March and my application materials arrived in the UKBA on 31 March, but so far I have not received my biometric letter. I have called UKBA via this number 03001232241 two times, but the agent told me to wait. What can I do else to get this letter promptly?Thanks

It has only been 3 weeks with the Easter weekend in between. Be patient, there is nowhere that says you get letter within a couple of weeks. There is nothing you can do to speed up the process.

HO have probably had a lot of applications before the fee increases on 6th April so there could be a bit of a backlog.

Thanks for your reply.
I just called UKBA to inquiry why I still have not received my biometric enrollment. The adviser told me there is a problem with my photograph and she said the Home Office would contact me by writing letter. What does this mean? Is there a chance my application will be refused due to the photograph problem? I took the photo using the photo booth in post office, so there should not be a problem.
