just to let you all know, Today we received my wife's visa approved, but they refused her FLR-M application because she had done B1 English language certificate (trinity College London) rather than A1... quite Silly as B1 is higher qualification than A1. any ways good news is they gave my wife 30 months visa under Private family life under 10 years as she has already spent 8 years in the UK and we have 3 uk born children who are British now as i have got ILR.

i thought to share this info as it could help many people like me. Best of luck everyone.

By the grace of almighty Allah I received my documents today. Still waiting for BRP. I applied on 7th January. could someone please update the tracker next to my name ZFDar. Thanks to all those board members who promptly advised me when I was sending my application. :)

One quick question... I have one baby girl born in November last year. I registered her with the local council that time. Now, what is the procedure to register her with Home Office as she born in the UK. What forms do I need to fill up and where those forms need to be submitted. I'll really appreciate your help. Thanks

Also, Good Luck to all those applicants who applied in January or before that as HO is picking up a gear now to sort out the applications. :wink:

[You will receive them within 7 days. Don't worry"]I am in very weird situation. I have received my BRP yesterday but I have not received my documents and any approval letter before BRP. It seems like on the board that applicants get their approval letter and documents first then get BRP. There is no red card in the post as well that shows I have missed the post.
Could any one confirm that How HO send your documents back and has anyone received the documents after BRP card Arrival.[/quote]

Hi Poirot

Please search this topic with word "Bristol" and you will understand why I ask this question.

Earlier, applicants get letters/approvals from both Liverpool and Bristol. Also some received emails from HO regarding application and some didnt.

Thanks

Poirot, I am new to this board and new to the discussion, I am a bit puzzled about the Liverpool/Bristol handling.

I received letters by post and email notifications with case ID. How do I find which centre handles my case? Is it important? Does decision depend on centres? (yes I know I sound dumb, but you can assume the stress).

I green - there's mention of Bristol / liverpool by another user earlier & I asked just to understand if one of the centres were working faster. There doesn't seem to be any evidence of that yet.

Can any of the above applicant confirm

1. Whether they received any email from HO confirming the Case ID, if yes did they mention that the application is getting processed in Liverpool or Bristol. I believe they are processing application in 2 different places.

2. Does their approval letter/acknowledgement letter state Liverpool address or Bristol.

Thanks

When I spoke to the HO yesterday, the rather unhelpful guy said they are processing November applications and gave me a Liverpool PO Box address.
