I am not sure if getting my MP involved would be a good Idea or it is too early . :| I am nearing 6 m...

Re: **** COVID19 Biometrics appointments and UKVCAS ***** (Discuss here ONLY)

Thank you all those who responded. Just for an idea, as of 830am today, around 25 members reported (both in ILR and BC forum) who submitted via IDV app only are waiting. Only 1 member reported waiting via the appointment only. Lets wait and see how the trend evolves. I applied on the 3rd of June an...

Re: **** COVID19 Biometrics appointments and UKVCAS ***** (Discuss here ONLY)

Is it actually possible to reschedule an appointment? When I go to manage services there is only an option to cancel. Does it mean you need to cancel and rebook? Hi, yes you can rebook but be aware you might get an appointment that's not close to the date you have. I cancelled my Friday appointment...

Re: **** COVID19 and UKVCAS Biometrics Appointments **** (ONLY discuss here)

I'm sorry but this backlog is artificial. UKVCAS needed to have on the 22nd of June (when they reverted to paid appointments again) done the following. 1. Opened up the booking system for 4 months rather than the current 1 month system. 2. They should have given people from 27 March to 30 April 1 w...

Anyone got any communication from UKVCAS? (Today is 10th so I was expecting something to be in my inbox when I wake up) It will probably be after 1700, these guy's are playing games. They will probably wait until the final group's deadline of today opt-out passes. It's like playing with our minds, ...

A member who opted out of IDV app in ILR group posted to be able to book an appointment via logging in to the UKVCAS even without an invitation. Applied through solicitor. Invitations were meant to come after 10th for booking an appointment. Can more members who “opted out” check if you can view ap...

I am so angry, did my application on the 3rd of June, last did biometrics in 2016. This is so frustrating, I have logged in and cannot see any free appointments, this is ridiculous
