Just had my ceremony today - Surrey council. Probably last one before they move to virtual ceremonies for everyone.

Good luck to you all.

Hi,
Mine is Surrey.
And haven’t sent anything or called anywhere after my approval.. just waited and waited patiently!

Hope yours come in the next coming days.

Hello all,

Finally received my invitation letter today in the post
Dated Dec 2nd.
Approval Sep 30th.

Hope it gives anyone who is still waiting some hope.

Thanks and good luck to all!

I guess further delays caused by Royal Mail (reported in the news today) don’t help either.. just add to the misery!

Approval Sep 30th. Still waiting for letter!!!

Congrats!! And good to know Surrey council are still operating!! Though they wouldn’t book without invitation letter.

Waiting for my turn!

Hello all,
Have been following patiently..
Approval Sep 30th.. no invitation letter yet.
Surrey council and they don’t book ceremonies unless you’ve received your invitation letter. I don’t even know if they are still doing ceremonies.

Can only keep waiting..

Hello everyone,

Good news from my side..
My application has just been approved

Made June 11
IDV biometric Sep 4

Good luck to you all!

Two IDV based approvals in one day!!
Promising!!
And congrats guys!

UKVCAS ditching the IDV app for future applications can mean one of two things: UKVCAS want to restore their stream of income (tough economic times!) OR There are serious problems with IDV app! I hope it’s not the latter and I hope we don’t hear one day the all applicants who used the IDV app need t...

I was able to log in just now - finally submitted my info!
Applied June 11th - no email received yet!

FINALLY!!!!!

Sole applicant. Applied June 11th. Submitted documents as soon as it was permitted. Have EU settlement status for 1yr +. Still no invite and not able to log in. Still confused and frustrated. If anyone can figure out why this is and what the pattern is for sending out invites.. I’d be very impressed...

Thanks and really hope so.

Yes and yes... non-stop!
Can’t login and no emails anywhere..
Just adds to the stress.. was hoping all was going to be sorted yesterday..!

Something is not right and very annoying.. applied June 11th and still have no invitation.. why?!!! Why?!!!

June 11th.. still nothing!

Someone in another group reported receiving an invitation to us the IDV app which they did yesterday!!
They applied in March

Very promising so let’s keep waiting.. don’t understand why invitations are also being done in phases!! Why don’t they send to everyone and UKVI can process in date order!!!

Fingers crossed!!
And it’s “i” “phone”!!!

Also found the app on App Store for idiot-phone. We just need that email/invitation/update now!!
Wondering how long that will take but it’s encouraging so far!

I am also not opting out of biometric reuse and will simply wait for the app.. reason.. not sure! :D Just seems right to get the stored data re-used without the hassle of obtaining everything again.. In fact, I hope this process gets adopted for the future “post-COVID”.. will save everyone lots of t...

Just to be fair and give an update.. I’ve finally received my biometric re-use email in the last half an hour.

Good luck to the rest.

Nothing else can be done, so I hear you.
This will eventually be over one way or another!
Just wish we were spared this anxious wait.

Just wondering over how many days do we expect the biometric re-use emails to keep coming?!! And in which order are they being sent out?!! Applied on June 11th and nothing yet.. applicants with later dates have received their emails.. clearly this is not the fair process claimed and surely it can be...

Applied June 11th.. nothing yet!

Finally an update today.. they are now working through June Applications!!
