Thanks very much.
They did not return my student visa that expires end of next year, wondering if i can ask for it back because I would rather not have this worry about entering back to the UK when i have to travel alone or with my friends.
Don't know if it is allowed to have more than 1 visa for the same country at a time. |
How did they manage to remove your student visa off your passport. did the tear off the page |
My student visa was on a residence card for 4 years from the date it was issued.
So it was like a driving license. |
Ok I see thanks for the info.
Aluter did u include and special delivery return envelope with ur application. |

Wow! I can't believe I'm finally bringing in the good news! I got my RC yesterday just after I posted here. Everything just suddenly feels so much brighter! Although we're positive my RC is back dated, not complaining.
Hang in there guys! I wish for everyone's relief soon!
Mine went two weeks past the six months. Keep positive!

| I just got off the phone with the Home Office. Luckily I got to speak to a much more helpful lady this time. I told her that I sent an email a week ago requesting our passports back but have not had a reply ever since. She told me again that it can take up to 5 working days for someone to get back to me. I explained to her that 5 working days have passed. She said that she would put in a second request. However, she does not have access to any information apart from my basic details and does not know whether the email request has been read/processed etc. She then asked me for a specific date I want our passports to be returned. I told her as soon as possible. She kept insisting on a specific date. I said this week Friday. She told me that this is not possible as it takes 10-20 days for the passports to be returned. I said next week Tuesday then. Her answer was that she cannot guarantee this. Honestly, I just find this quite unsettling. We enclosed a self addressed special delivery envelope at the time of applying and I asked the passports to be returned in this envelope. How is it possible for it to take 10-20 days if the special delivery is a next day service and I requested our passports back a week ago? Anyways, I guess we'll be back to waiting and hoping and I do try to stay calm but the whole process is very distressing. |

Guys I'm sure it's in the post somewhere if december cases were decided beginning of may! I still can't believe though, i had some bad experiences with HO and was bracing myself for a refusal because of difficulty proving self employment, so not such a straightforward case.

My fiance called HO today, maybe 2 hrs ago and guess what.... They still haven't processed our application... So he requested his passport back, for work purposes. Let's see what happens in next few days...
