Congratulations to tradle1 and thanks to maahir for the information. Yes it appears the amount of supporting documents is not relevant, it also appears that the 9.5 weeks average time is getting skewed.

Mid Week

Hi all,

It is Wednesday evening and only one passport has been returned yet. I was hoping at least three or four people would have moved up the list by now :(

vien1206 mate, you said you wrote to the UKBA around mid October, have you heard anything back from them yet?

There is no need to send any other material like employment letter, bank statements etc. I don't think the caseworkers pay attention to that. I have sent extra docs myself, e.g. gp letters, bank statements, employers letters, pay slips. it would be stupid to ask us to provide them, even if they wer...
