Ezechris wrote:Good day everyone. First of all my time line I applied on 13 May. Method: NCS. Acknowledgment: 4th June. Biometrics received and done on 4th June.
The main issue now is that I signed a guarantor for someone and he left without paying his rent and I didn't know. Since I had moved hhouse the lettings agency couldn't get in touch with me and hence took the issue to court and he as well as me being gurantor got slammed with a ccj. I went in June to get a credit card and was denied and then that was how I found out I had a ccj against my name. I have satisfied it and written to the home office explaining that it wasn't my fault.
But my people u know the way it is. I am worried sick if this might affect me as I didn't put it in my initial application and I didn't cos I didn't know it was existing at the time. Thanks. Any advice will be appreciated.
Hey man. I am in exactly same shoes. CCJ was added to my name AFTER I submitted my application. See this topic I started http://www.immigrationboards.com/britis ... 91396.html

I too wrote to HO notifying them about the change of circumstances and that I was taking care of it. You have done the right thing. I seriously doubt that they will refuse us based on that. As long as we have taken care of it, I don't see why. Let me know how you get on mate.
Be good.

Your case is similar to mine Ajay.
I applied on 30th April. My application fees were deducted after I submitted the biometric info.
For my wife, no fees are deducted yet and she did not receive the biometric invitation letter.
We got a mail last week, asking for additional fees and a payment form.

It looks like we should be submitting only 1 payment slip for all applications made together.
Someone on this thread has done this on advice of NCS.

Hi, I don't think so that you have to send one payment slip for more than one application, if you are making family application, individual application form has to be attached with the individual payment slip, this can be same account or card details for all the slips but the money will come out of the account as lump sum. that is what happened to me. I made four applications, me , spouse and 2 kids, with different pay slips, and all money came out as one lump sum.....

Glad it worked for you mate. I had 2 applications with 2 payment slips using 2 different cards. As the bank sometimes block big transactions, we gave different cards. Sadly did not work for me.

Hi guys, got a letter from home office requesting for some clarification before they "proceed to printing certificate". I applied on 15 May. Letter dated 28 Aug so looks like HO is starting to hit mid May applications. :D

Hi Guys,

FYI, A close friend of mine who applied on the 1st of May 2015 got his approval yesterday.

This kinda suggests that they have started looking at May applications too but not sure in what order! :?
