Re: New ILR process, Time to decision

You should call the number 03001232241 choose option 4 and then 1. Explain your situation and there is an officer nicely taking down your details. You will be contacted very shortly by the caseworker. It worked for me. My appointment was 2 days after yours. Hi manibala, have you got your BRP yet? As...

Re: UKVCAS Super Priority Service

Thank you Daisy but their explanation re 24 hour turnaround time is ridiculous! They could have said they did not promise but aim to make decision within 24 hours! Hi all, I thought I'd share my experience and what I know to date: Nov 28th I attended my Super Priority appointment at 7:30am at London...

Yes, you can upload, remove files etc until you get your biometrics taken. basically, If I submit application and pay today and choose the centre appointment for Friday 7/12/18, will I be able to upload the documents anytime I want in the next one week from today? Can we log in and log out anytime t...

Re: Driving insurance in first year of visa

He can drive with his foreign license up to 12 months and buy insurance on his name. It is a bit more expensive than if he has a UK licence but not very much. He should get UK license as soon as possible.

Re: Timeline for new super priority service

@griftah1981: I think in your case, it is evident that they did keep promise for 24 hour service (16th-Friday submitted and you got email on 19th -Monday)) and the decision they made was to do more checks.

Re: New ILR process, Time to decision

I guess they have a shortage of staff. It is actually a double workload as two systems coexist. Hopefully, from tomorrow when the existing premium service closes (is it today its last day?) the speed of communication will be improved and they will be able to keep their 24 hour service promise.

Re: UKVCAS Super Priority Service

You exchange for new one - just like your driving license or passport. People who have got the ilr recently, just curious, how long is it valid for? Mine is valid until 2024 but I was under the impression that it would not have an expiry. Does anyone know what needs to be done at in 2024. Appreciate...
