Hi gvkhem,

How do you know that the documents are sent to Integra?

I applied in Chennai on 3rd October? How to track the status other than VFS Site?

Thanks,
Tamil

hi,

I think there is no other way to check status of Tier-1 as vfs site. It is only the HO can tell us.

Rang HO this morning and a recorded message said they are now processing applications received on 8 October 2008. I haven't read or heard of any applicant who has dared to call at HO offices in Sheffield. I think such a move could prompt them to withdraw one's application. Lets hope that we will receive our visa stamped passports before the end of October,2008.

your are right pino. It is just 3 weeks since applied. HO promises to process within 5-6 weeks. Let's all wait for the best.

:D
