biometrics

Post by Amygibbs82 » Fri Nov 16, 2018 6:35 pm

I have received my letter for my biometrics permit to take to the Post Office. All the information is correct, name , address and Date of Birth but they have put Mrs instead of Miss. Can I still go ahead and get this done as the Biometrics card does not state the title or do I need to contact them? Like many other people I work full time and with a time frame to meet it is difficult. I have emailed to the address stated but it came back as failed? I have been working so I have been unable to phone the Home Office. Any suggestions greatly appreciated as it is so stressful especially chasing something which is a mistake they have made.

Are you sure it will be ok as i need to travel over an hour to the nearest post office. Also i resent my email and got an automated reply stating that i would be contacted witin 21 days??? This would then put me outside of the timeframe. I am tempted to travel to get it done but i need to be sure it will all be ok.

It is likely a typo. If your name, DOB and all other information is correct, there is NO issue.

I sent a post earlier this evening but I am unable to find it. My letter was sent with all the correct details apart from my title which they have put Mrs instead of Miss. I was unsure what to do and as I have to travel over an hour to the closest Post office to process etc. I was advised to go ahead by this forum but I did send another post asking if this is absolutely correct. Please advise asap. Really stressed

There are no titles on the biometric cards.

I was replying to OP’s second post, which has been merged (the 10:28pm one). The post was originally posted under ILR sub-forum and has no mention of ‘biometric’ letter, so I assumed it was the ILR grant letter.
