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

Thanks for the info. I was able to finally scan items with perfect resolution below the 6MB restriction...with the help of my husband who had a few tricks to adjust the size, but keep picture quality the same. There was a lot of cutting and pasting and cropping which took most of our evening, but i...

Re: New Appointment Centre UKVCAS

I am applying through Set M and just to be safe I have uploaded every single page of my passport (new and previous old one which had my fiancé visa) and my husband’s passport. It was very difficult to get the scanned pages down to under 6MB each. I’m not completely sure myself how my husband did it....

Re: UKVCAS Super Priority Service

This is why I will be making an official complaint about the helpline, it's a warehouse of clowns. It's not their fault, they are badly trained and given no powers and poor information. The people themselves are generally ok, with a few failed middle managers thrown in for good measure. You could s...

Dear Swskum Many thanks for kind and elaborate information, I am so glad that I was seeking answer in this group. Your situation is exactly same as mine. It's such a shame for the sophisticated home office for publishing a new portal without any guidance... (Maybe they wanted us to hire solicitors ...

Re: New Appointment Centre UKVCAS

I should clarify, those who applied in November when the directive was quite obscure will probably be OK with applying earlier however, I think it’s pretty clear now that the application date and submission date are the same. In theory it should make sense as appointments should be available within ...

Re: New Appointment Centre UKVCAS

I seem to recall reading that if you cancel, you have to book again and may lose any payment you made but not sure that was a certainty. However, I think you may well be worrying unduly and you will get an early appointment when you apply, keeping in mind though that the holiday will eliminate a co...

It was actually my nephew going for FLR(M) for his wife and a friend of his going for ILR so no links. My nephew says there were quite a few available and he could have even got an earlier one. He went for a free one but could have paid £60 for an earlier one. Thank you for the clarification! I wil...

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? Or do you have to cancel current appointment and re-book?
