Re: BRP card never received - chasing down

Filling the online form is the only option, I think.
You could also try writing to the caseworker, although I'm unsure if they'd do anything in this case other than asking you to apply for another card if it's showing up as delivered.

Hi,
The start date for myinitial visa was 03/09/2014.
If you meet the employment requirements (which will be counted from the date your extension was granted), you could apply 28 days before qualifying for the 5 year ILR route (upto 28 days before 03/09/2019).

Re: Approval received a week ago (second extension); no BRP card received

Why not simply wait the 7 to 10 working days before firing off correpondence in a panic. The brp cards are not produced at the Sheffield or other HO office. It's been a week but DX courier have nothing for him still. I know the cards aren't produced in Sheffield, I think it's in Bristol, but I thin...

Approval received a week ago (second extension); no BRP card received

My brother received a letter a week ago indicating that his second extension has been approved. It was approved pretty quickly. However, his BRP has still not been issued. According to DX courier, they have nothing for him. The letter says that he should wait for 7/10 working days, but looking at th...

Re: I forgot to sign at the back of my photos

Did you send the photos? Also, did HO write to you to tell you about the tech issue with the biometric? Yes, they sent me an email, and I was shocked as never expected that would happen. But at least, they post me a free sticker so I didn't have to pay twice. Hi 1235 Were you contacted regarding th...

5 months now. How about you?
I'm waiting for ILR since 12 May (4 months).

Most people got it in 3 months so quite worried, especially because I need to travel asap due to family member's serious illness.
Let's see.

Re: Switch to Tier2 after extension refusal. Is it possible?

I think you can vary the fresh application and also make a fresh application for tier 2. Don't think it affects the second application as such though depends on the reasons. But why are you worried it'll be rejected? Hi sm12, Thanks for responding. I think such thoughts cross one's mind when one is...

Have you hired a solicitor?
The issue is that you continued for several months even though the biometric card clearly says you can work for your own business only.
