Re: Submitted date vs Appointment date?

I have called UKVI this morning and they have confirmed that online application submission date is the best eligible date for ILR.
This is also confirmed by front end team supporting new process.

Very confusing and it seems no formal confirmation yet from UKVI.

Re: UKVCAS Super Priority Service

Good luck buddy. Did you get super premium service appointment for 15th nov through new Sopra Steria website? It seems the earliest appointment slot is available in 8 days.
Is super premium service appointment available at any other place other than London ?

Re: SET(M) - Applying online after 29 November

Hi fassika

Where did you book the super priority service? Which centres are available? Is super priority service only applicable in London or other service centres.

Please elaborate on the process. Do you have to go to the sopra steria website for booking the appointment?

Thanks Vinny. I guess that might be the reason why PSc appointment was not available. It will be interesting to see the outcome of the new process. I am assuming with all bureaucracy same day decision is no longer available. :?
