Re: New Appointment Centre UKVCAS

Hi Josh I had the option of buying the document checking service. Maybe because you are going to enhanced centre, its probably included in that.

Re: Premium Service appointment booking issue for ILR (LR)

Hi Allyf, Yeah I agree it could be true what others think. Sopra Steria will only be able to advise about the appointments and logistics therefore I have only asked them to confirm how long in advance they are allowing to book appointments. For the other application date and qualifying period query...

Re: Premium Service appointment booking issue for ILR (LR)

Hi Guys, I haven't heard back anything yet from either UKBA (FrontEndServicesTeam@homeoffice.gov.uk) or to my enquiry Sopra Steria website. Basically there are two issues which we are lost at the moment. First is whether UKBA will consider payment date on their website or the actual appointment dat...

Re: Premium Service appointment booking issue for ILR (LR)

Hi Allyf, Thanks for sharing the information. Yeah I have also read about the 28 days on the official Sopra Steria website which would mean I wont be able to book an appointment before the end of November in order to make an appointment after 24th December. To clear this issue I have also made an e...

Re: Premium Service appointment booking issue for ILR (LR)

From What I have read the premium service centres are closing on 29th of November therefore I think currently the system isn't accepting any appointments after 29th November if someone is looking to book after that like me. I think at the moment only those appointments will show at premium service ...

Re: UKVI Digital Changes, No PEO/PSCs from October 2018?

Thank you loupiol for keeping us in the loop! I’m glad you were able to secure a date for priority service (even though it was rather pricey!) I was wondering if you can shed some light on the priority booking. I’ve been told that the 28 days prior to visa expiration still applies. So does that mea...

Re: Premium Service appointment booking issue for ILR (LR)

Thanks neilajgaonkar. I really hope it’s not the date of submission of the online application. It would be obviously be better if it were the date of the walk in priority service..at least then those people who need to book for December can book a slot ahead of time instead of waiting until a few d...

Re: Premium Service appointment booking issue for ILR (LR)

Yes this 'date of application' situation seems not clear. My lawyers too have advised to hold from submitting as they are waiting for confirmation from UKVI. The old postal system took the date of application as date of postage. I think it is same for the new system. Maybe there is some clue in the...
