Hi,

Thanks for sharing, please note that my friend received an email yesterday, they are working on applications dated on 28-11-2019, so probably your travel document is printed and will arrive either tomorrow or after 2 days.

Best of luck!
I think they have closed the offices. It is over 80 working days now.

Hi Newlondon,

I have just received a phone call from the travel document office. I can confirm that they are still working and the travel documents are still getting printed and delivered. I have received the confirmation today that my application has been accepted and to be delivered within 7 working days.

Hi that is great news.

That’s for sharing and how come they called you? Have you emailed them previously because I emailed them last week and they responded with the normal 70 working days template even though it’s over 80 working days now.

Thanks

Hi newlondon,

they started processing applications on the 09-12-19 yesterday so I believe there is an issue with your application. they called me because I added the mobile number in the application and there was an issue with my application. I received a call from a mobile and he told me that they continue to work from home. you may try giving this number a call 0300 123 2241 as it was mentioned in the email.

wish you luck,

Regarding the Professional Person Declaration, can only the persons/professions listed at the top of the form sign it?

Does anyone know what airlines accept the convention blue travel document ?
I think they all do , but it depends on where you want to travel to if it’s Dubai or Qatar don’t bother. For the list of countries that accept the documents without visas or with visas , I use google
Hi guys!

I had Blue Travel documents during 5 years resident permit. I flow with many airlines and not problem with airlines. I had 3 times connection flights in Qatar (Doha Airport)and Etihad (Abu Dhabi Airport). You can fly with out any limits but you can't leaving airport building.

Airport staff will check your travel documents by phone with somebody before you go to aircraft even you was in same country 2 days ago and 10 times for last 3 months.

I visited WITH OUT visa: France, Spain, Andorra, Gibraltar, Germany, Netherland, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Lichtenstein, Italy, San Marino, Monaco, Greece, Aruba, Dominican Rep., Georgia.

I visited WITH visa: Russia, Azerbajdzjan, Kazakhstan, Egypt.

Airlines who I flow with and no body ask me letter from embussy:
1. Etihad Airways (UAE)
2. Qatar Airways (Qatar)
3. Air Astana (KAZ)
4. Thomson Airways (UK)
5. Aeroflot (RUS)
6. British Airways (UK)
7. Azal (AZE)
8. Air Malta (MAL)
9. Lufthansa (GER)
10. FinnAir (FIN)
11. Aegea (GRE)
12. Tomas Cook (UK)
13. EuroWings (GER)
14. Brussel Airlines (BLG)
15. SwissAir (SWT)
16. EasyJet (UK)
17. Monarch (UK)
18. Georgian Airlines (GEO)
19. Small Planet (LIT)
20. Ryanair (IRL)
21. WizzAir (HUN)
I hold the blue convention travel document can someone tell me if I need a visa for Dominican Republic ?
HI, You no need a visa to visit Dominican Rep with Blue Travel Doc. I visited DR two times. I strongly recommend you to buy a travel voucher from embussy in London(online) for £15 to avoid queue in airport

You do not send original documents to the Home Office when applying for convention travel document. You should send a copy of your BRP, not the original !

You're welcome.

For the leave to remain letter, I made a copy of it and sent the original.

No, convention travel document do not require to go for biometrics

I did not receive a confirmation as well. Seems like a pretty normal thing for the Home Office to do.

No, haven’t received... but I tracked the post, someone has signed and has received the documents... I think it’s quite normal to not get confirmation email.
