one question to both of u, did ur unrestricted cos come thru since ur employer gave mail on urgent treatment? without the urgent treatment mail, how much time does unrestricted cos application take? since both ur timings of getting the same are different.
my employer has applied on 27th july... |
my employer didnt requested urgent treatment as i still have about 3 months on my visa expiry, my employer just emailed them that its been 3 months since our request and still waiting for cos , so we requested them to allocated the cos asap as i am looking to make my applicatoin in the coming month.
Note : you can request the urgent treatment only when you have 2 weeks left in your visa expiry |
thanks david. Mine is a fresh case. My cos was issued on 9th july but my employer made an error for which they have applied a fresh one on 27th july.
so am waiting...on the helpline they say it can take upto 4 weeks minimum for the issue of new cos...hoping to have fresh allocation quickly for my employer so that i can have a cos fast.
regards |

Hi All,
Its been six and half weeks to my companys application for addtional unrestricted cos. Still No allocation yet. Just wanted to check, if anybody has got allocated unrestricted cos allocated recently? earnest request to post if its the case....
I have been at the receiving end of these waits for quite long. My employer license took 15 weeks, then my employer issued me a cos but it had an error in salary so they had to cancel and ask for addtional allocation of unrestricted cos. so in all i have waited 15 weeks plus 6 and half weeks plus the time of 6 weeks which my employer took to reapply after trying to check.
Its a painful wait!! |

Hi, I feel your desperation.
Unfortunately common sense is not common at UKBA.
I got a friend who will be applying for cos next month. will let you know how it goes.
Cheers |

For the first time it was applied in the first week of april. We got it on 27th of april. They sent email to the assigned person that they have allocated a cos. Then the HR checked in in sms and found that the cos allocated. I think it will be the same process again.
It is a painful waiting...so please if you receive the cos before me please let me know.
Thanks. |

Hi,
Urgent treatment will only be considered if the visa going to expire in 4 weeks. I have still 3 months left with my visa. so urgent treatment is not possible in my case. My employer called them but they said they have got backlog and trying to clear it. They couldnt give any approximate date.
What is the response you are getting from them? Did you apply for urgent treatment? |

not applied for urgent treatment. the last time u posted u said 3 months or so for it...but i dont think ukba explicity says that timeline...they only say considerable time for the same.
wonder why such a torture....so hard on people like u and me |

Hi All,
After going through various threads on this forums, I could gather that paart from myself, amongst the one who have posted,
sakar
ska.omer
funky22
logix88
are in similar siuation in application for unrestricted cos with various timelines...requesting them alll to regularly post their updates here.
Also @ ska.omer, just wanted to know what is the role of the solicitor in application process of an unrestricted cos, since its done through SMS of the employer...could you please explain it. Is it only advisory role? |

I am not sure about the role of solicitor as my employer did not go through solicitor for applying process. |

Looking around and from what I hear, they only prioritise the allocation if your visa is going to expire in the next 2 weeks.
In all other cases, they don't seem to have any strict time limit. You get when you get it. In my case, I only have another 2 months left on my visa - I am hoping to avoid taking this down to the last 2 weeks as it doesn't give me too much time but if that's what it comes to then there is nothing else we can do. |

| Btw, do employers have a dedicated support line they can ring and possibly speak to the case worker? If so, any idea what it is? |

thank for posting information from ur side. there is only one helpline. I dont think employer can directly talk to case worker handling the case. there are customer service executives who can be spoken to though who can tell u details if the person listed on the application calls up at 0300 123 4699. |
