I've been a silent follower of this forum for some time and found the statistics it provides on waiting times very useful and reassuring. I thought I'd now throw my timeline into the ring:

Application date: 23-April-2012
Acknowledgement letter date: 30-April-2012
Fee taken on 1-May-2012

Still waiting for the biometric letter...

My case is relatively straightforward: 8yrs student + 4yrs WP however could not apply earlier due to total absences from the UK being over 540 days. I don't have original passports covering first four years as the issuing government used to confiscate old passports when issuing new ones. I'm applying through a lawyer. Documents submitted: passport + copies, LIUK, letters from school / uni / employer, bank statements, council tax letters, GP letters.

Best of luck everybody!

so fingure double cross this time they dnt find any silly reason to refuse my application as no offence been made last 5 yrs.
thnx again ppl here for the support.


hi rumeee007

I agree with past posts suggesting that as long as your stay is currently legal at the point of filing the application then that's all that matters. And i assume your situation has been cleared up when u made the application. in this case, i wouldnt worry too much if i were you.

What is striking is that most people here have not gone through a solicitor because they feel their case is straightforward... unless of course if they have got any complications.

Also, if you have noticed most applications are successfull. But i have also noticed people get more anxious whether their application would be rejected MORE than the anxiety of waiting for weeks hearing nothing, which i think is unjustified a little.

This is why i think people should keep their hopes up since its mostly about waiting... so it helps carry on doing other things in life than contiue worrying.

Patience is a virtue

i also wish everyone updates their situation here so we can all estimate how long our applications are taking .... especially the silent members!

All the best to everyone

My AWESOME Timeline So far (BRP)

Post by ONE-DAY » Tue May 15, 2012 2:40 am

CONGRATULATIONS to all those who have been filled with JOY. Legitimately the wait is not easy, so once again CONGRATS. :)

My AWESOME Timeline So far:

Applied:13-03-2012
Acknowledgement dated:15-03-2012
Acknowledgement received:19-03-2012
Invitation for Biometric Enrolment dated: 05-05-2012
Biometric Enrolment Received: 09-05-2012
Biometric Enrolment done at the Post Office (£19.20) on the same day [09-05-2012]
I am still waiting........

My case is a little bit complex, hence why I applied through a solicitor. :)

Question 1: Is receiving an invitation for BIOMETRIC ENROLMENT GOOD NEWS?
Question 2: How long do I wait to receive the Biometric Residence Permit.

And thanks a lot to those who initiated and contributed time/support to this forum. It as been very encouraging. God Bless :)
