Hi Eagle123,

Congrats to you after so long and I hope you're finally feeling good.

I wanted to quickly ask you if your BRP was received by your lawyer or if it came to your address.

My granted was approved on 17th Jan and I have yet to receive my BRP.

Thanks

Re: UKVCAS Super Priority Service

@momozz, My scenario is same as yours, was in PSW then in tier 2 with same employer. I haven't heard anything from Home office, no phone calls nothing. During my 5 years in UK, I traveled total of 11 times so not sure if that's causing any issue in my part.
