Cheques are being phased out because they need to 'clear' (3-5 working days) so I imagine they're not so popular. Cheques are NOT being phased out. :x Ayyubi72 Did you pay be cheque or anyone you know who paid by cheque? The only reason I am so concerned is because the new language requirement rule...

I think it will be good idea to include present nationality as well if people don't mind sharing this information.

Re: FPN and many PCN's

Imran 22, Since you have a clear year without FPN you can apply but disclose the past FPN on your application to avoid being rejected on the ground of deception. Ignore the PCN's and make sure you do not get any more. I presume you settled all the above without any going to court. Good Luck vr Than...

UKBA tolerance to mistakes from Referees

Hello Members How tolerant UKBA is on mistakes committed by the referees? Just spotted that one of my referee put the date of the signature as 3rd OCT 2013 and according to the guideline they should have put 03/10/2013 instead.

There is no problem if the referee signed before the main applicant. That is normal, you put the date you actually signed the form. Thank you Amber for putting my mind to rest.

I think there will be no plans and the correspondence will be sent using the Royal Mail as they normally do. This is what they did in previous wave of postal strike few years back. I remember that when I was going through my Tier-1 visa process. It was nightmare and a lot of hassle for many applicants

Re: Signature of Referee

Imran22, It is natural to be anxious about imaginary issues in the final leg of the immigration journey. You can get the signature of the referee 1 month before you actually get to submit your application or if you are a person who plans meticulously you could have even got their signature earlier....
