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

Hi everyone, I guess I am one of the first users of the new service operated by Sopria! Given all the information I got from the forum (thanks everyone!), I want to share my experience. I'll be using the new service this Monday in the Premium Lounge in Tower Hill, London. Here's the process I've be...

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...

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

Hi, I am really confused. I can apply for ILR from 7th December Set(o) route. I was planning to use premium service with a paper application, which seems to be impossible now. What would be the process now in order to get the same experience with the new service: 1) Do I need to go to Standard link...

Address changes

Hi everyone, I was hoping someone could give me advice regarding address changes. I have moved 2 times in the last 2 1/2 years since my last Visa application (so 3 different addresses). As you know for the visa application process, proof of cohabiting with your partner is necessary (6 each of you do...

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

I spoke to an immigration lawyer in London. They suggested the super premium service. It can be used by upto 4 unrelated people, sharing the costs. The service is practically on demand and they come out to the customers premises (house, office). For people in a fix like me for FLR(M) that could be ...

Re: ILR - Premium service - No slots available for next 45 days! HELP PLEASE!!!!!

Keep in mind there will be no more PSC appointments available after The end of November. Do you mean because of Christmas / New Year, or just in general? The PSC will no longer be taking appointments after November. The new online process will allow applicants to make priority appointments through ...

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

Yes, they didn’t mention anything about that, so it can be assumed that the 28 days is still applicable otherwise they would have spoken about it. Remember it is a regulatory requirement. Thanks bizman, I do you agree that it will probably be assumed 28 days is still applicable… However I’m wonderi...

Re: SET(M) confused with 60 Month time period & 28 days rules

The initial FLR(M) grant date is the start of the 5 year qualifying period. It's completed after the 5th anniversary. Then subtract 28 days prior to that. As you have until before expiry of leave, 14 Jan 2019, why take the risk that the UKVI may disagree with the boundary dates? Pick some safer dat...
