My Timeline - Set (M) NO Dependants
The current Visa then was Expiring 06/08/2012 (I don't know if this has any bearing on the date my ILTR was granted, 06/12/2012)
01/08/2012 Application sent via Next Day Delivery (Recorded)
02/08/2012 Application received by UKBA
13/08/2012 Money Taken Out of my Account (Debit Card)
18/08/2012 Acknowledgement Letter received (letter dated 13/08/2012)
25/09/2012 Biometrics Letter received (letter dated 22/09/2012)
26/09/2012 Biometrics taken at the post office (Abbeywood PO)
10/12/2012 Approval Letter (Dated: 06/12/2012) + Documents/Passports (Mine and my wife's)
19/12/2012 BRP Card Delivered by DX after receiving a letter from DX dated 14/12/2012 claiming they tried to deliver my BRP card but was unable, I rearranged for re-delivery 19/12/2012) and they did at 5 mins to 5pm

So the day I joined this message board is the day they granted me ILTR, if only I had known, I could have put, Approved, Awaiting BRP.

Hi did you still get a letter saying your BRP cards was on its way? or was it just your passport and the BRP card? I got my passport and letter saying on the same date as you got your Passport & BRP card, letter said that my BRP card was on its way and should be with me with 7 working days. Am asking because the envelope containing my documents was damaged (half open) and the post man gave a card to feel in if there was anything missing, he also was told me that I need to feel in a make report in no more than 10 days. So i don't know if the letter is just standard or the letter that is enclosed for people who's BRP cards are on the way. Thanks,,,

Many, Many thanks, you've set my heart at rest, I was worried that maybe some at the post office had taken out the BRP card. I'll wait for it.

From what I have observed on many boards and on this board as well, the people who are currently receiving their passports and BRP are those who did the biometrics registration in and around October.
