Re: UKVCAS Super Priority Service

I've received a 'your application is still being processed and we can't tell you when a decision will be made' email today which I can only assume means that my file hasn't even been touched yet!

Re: UKVCAS Super Priority Service

After the standard email from UKVI today, I called the same number with option 4 and 1 today. A very rude lady told me that i can only call back after 1 month now as there is nothing they can do. Also, when i said, I want to complain about this helpline she gave me the same complaints email address ...

Re: UKVCAS Super Priority Service

does anyone know of UKVI working calendar over Christmas? Is anything likely to happen in the week December 24th-28th or will the whole thing be a write off? My guess is that they are open 24th, 27-28 but don't think anyone is actually going to "WORK". Maybe 1-2 approvals perhaps but don't expect m...

Re: UKVCAS Super Priority Service

probably a silly question but regarding the £35 document checking extra service...how does Sopra Steria know I’ve completed the uploads? Or am I just required to have it complete within 2 days of appointment? Thank you Highly recommend not using the document checking service. All they do is check i...

Re: UKVCAS Super Priority Service

After reading the thread today and feeling a bit desperate, hopeless and frustrated I have just now written to my local MP.

Let's hope I receive some update now!!!

Getting sick and tired of the constant waiting.

Re: UKVCAS Super Priority Service

Hi everyone, Can someone please remind me, if an appointment is booked with Sopra Steria, are you allowed to change booking if something comes up earlier?

Re: UKVCAS Super Priority Service

Just an update, got 2nd email from UKVI saying that my application is within service standard and bla bla bla. I think I am going to wait and then ask for refund once I get my ILR next year (if I do at all), will ask my MP in Jan also. Not much I can do I think as the escalation process is just a bo...
