interesting point. I scoured uk ba site looking for wording which would clear up the matter, one way or another, but couldn't find anything which says 'applications made before april-06...' common sense and the spirit of the new rule implies that they should take the application date into considerat...
There is no way you can delay enrolling biometrics beyond mid april as 104 post offices all over UK will start accepting biometrics from april-10 and the option to enrol in PEOs will stop in april. If you book an april-end or may start PEO date now(if at all possible) it may look suspicious to the c...
How do you write down 10 years residence address. I have about 5 different addresses. The form provides only one box. same as you do with extra info in your T1 application - in an extra sheet of paper Hi, It clearly states in UKBA letter. Select option 1 in section 2. Leave 2A and 2B blank. Secondl...
I have already posted my extension application form. But I doubt I have written my Full name on the back of the photos. Is this a major mistake? have you tried calling uk ba customer care to ask them the same question ? my guess would be they ask for the name to be written so they can trace it back...
Part of DAT1 form. 2. Personal Data Sought The police in Northern Ireland hold information relating to prosecution /conviction/caution history. If you require access to this type of information please indicate by ticking the box. I require access to prosecution/conviction/caution history: Yes No Wh...
thanks doc44 for the information. it helps a lot in making guesstimates about processing times. I read in another post that PSNI typically takes 12-14 days to run the checks and send results back to uk ba.
rajvam has posted in a separate thread that UK BA sent a letter asking to Complete the data protection subject access form(DAT1) a month after submitting biometrics. This is for people who stayed in NI. But apparently not all applicants who stayed in northern ireland are asked to go through this ex...
D5. Are either the applicant’s current and/or any one of his/her previous passport(s) or travel document(s) that he/she has used to travel to, and remain in, the United Kingdom which shows his/her current leave unavailable? you don't need to fill questions D6 to D10 if you have submitted all your pa...
currently even credit/debit cards payment is being taken after 7 days, bankers draft you can add another 3 days on average.
my application had reached uk ba on 6-feb, paying by bankers draft, and i got my acknowledgement letter on 20-feb. still a long time to go for you before you need to worry

This UK BA page says we can enrol biometric info only at post offices from 10-april, but I have an appointment for biometric enrolment for 13-April in Belfast http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/aboutus/contact/enrol-biometric/biometricenrolment/ Whats up here ? Is my and other people's peo biometric ...
I selected Tier1-General option online and then No in premium appointment question. Got back some available appointments in Belfast, selected one. Put in the Case Ref number I found on the biometric letter(not Our Ref number in bio letter) in field Case ID in online form and submitted. Got back a Re...
I can't find any link, but someone posted in this forum that from next month something like 117 post office will have biometric appointment facility. I am sure that would also include NI. Thats correct, 104 post offices. But it starts on apr-10, and i wanted to avoid cooling my heels for the next 2...

Thanks for the reply, yes I sent the forms & all supporting evidence yesterday. Worried if this form will be rejected just because of this... won't be rejected, don't worry. you can have complete peace of mind once payment is taken, that is the sign that application is valid, form,photos etc are in...
Hi, I am going to apply for my tier 1 extension on 2nd Feb. Just need a bit of advice -should i pay my fee through debit card or bankers draft (I have herd rumours of some time machine not working at HO when paying through debit card) ? Is this premium application or postal ? Safest payment option ...
Appears water tight to me. I submitted a similar letter from employer explaining errors in one of my payslips. Added advantage is your premium appointment where you can explain firsthand if CW has queries.
how old ? If the photos are as per guidance and you don't appear too young in the photo to the case worker then you will be fine. Someone had forgotten to include photos and he was asked for them via email by UK BA. Sorry, but never heard of anyone asked to re-submit old/invalid photos. Your best be...
For T1 extension your passport needs to be valid at time of application, so you should be fine. Based on current processing times your application should get decided in 10-12 weeks for a postal application, far less for PEO application. I dont think that there is a travel restriction if six months o...
