Re: Stage 2 Timeline

I submitted my biometrics via IDV app only on 30th August. I am still waiting...Should I go for in-person appointment? Any advice please? Based on the fact that almost everyone here who did IDV and then did in-person and then got a decision a few days later. The pattern is clear so that should help ...

Re: Stage 2 Timeline

Re: Stage 2 Timeline

No issues. I already received my GTV visa. I had only self-uploaded the bio page. The UKVCAS staff at the appointment also scanned only the bio page. It is only for ILR & naturalisation applications that you need to demonstrate that you have had continuous presence within the UK (barring absences ...

Re: Stage 2 Timeline

Sorry, I am not clear what you meant by "check in UKVI application that I am required to do an appointment"? If you go back to the visa application on the home office website it will say you need to book a bio-metrics appointment by a certain date and that takes you to the ukvcas website. Since ...

Re: Stage 2 Timeline

No update. Submitted biometrics via IDV app on 28/8. I think it is the app that is holding me up. Alright. We both submitted biometrics via the app on the same day (28 Aug 2020). Since your application was submitted way before mine, I think you should get your decision imminently. Although it ...
