Hopefully nothing to worry.

MAXWELL U R THE BEST & VERY HELPFUL. PLEASE ADVISE ME WHAT TO DO.MANY THANKS IN ADVANCE
Thanks my friend. I'm not professional. Just my opinion. It looks like there are some delays now for some people with biometrics letters. Probably it will arrive soon, if not, contact them, nothing else can be done I suppose. Don't worry so much, even if it was lost in the post, it is not your fault but I think most probably it will arrive soon.
:wink:
Thanks Maxwell again... It's feel better when you heard something positive from an experience person like you. I"m praying for every1...

Congrats!

Any reason why it took longer than normal. Did you push your case through your local MP or you were not bothered?

Thanks

cant remember, it was Croydon public inquiry office.
I will dig out tomorrow and let you know.
Actually the guy sounded quite helpful and straight forward. I called to ask in case they needed additional documents and also to check if my case has been assigned to someone. He said, yes it is being processed (the usual line) but also he could confirm that it was long assigned to a case worker and currently they were clearing out July applicants.

Thank you Esmsi. to be honest this wasn't as bad as Amjadeeds or other people who applied last Oct or Dec. They had to wait for very long time.

This is the month where my heart beats on every knock on the door or I wait for the whole day to come home and check my post! :D!

Good luck everyone.
