@heyaheya - thanks so much for the well wished. Good luck to us all, if it wasn't for this forum and everyone updating their statuses and asking questions. I would've gone nuts

@bizman - many thanks for your words of encouragement. It has been draining honestly more than anything, the worry, the uncertainty it was terrible. I am not really sure what will happen with Beckett House yet, but I will show up to my next appointment and notify them of my approval. I will update the Beckett House thread when I know more myself. Thanks again.

@jafersadeq -thanks, I have learned the hard way, trust me I will not be making the same mistake twice. Also I have learned not to trust solicitors and barrister blindly (they filled everything on my behalf and I skimmed over the paperwork thinking they know better). You have to review everything yourself because at the end of the day it is your neck that's on the line.

Passport and all remaining documents arrived today 21/11/2017

Not sure if any of this has to do with the fact that I contacted my MP, or whether it had coincided with the Home Office processing my case. Either way, glad that it is over on a positive note.

@bizman - Honestly amidst all the excitement of getting my BRP and documents back I forgot to check until you mentioned it. I checked just not and there has been no refund so far. Will update again if and when it turns up. Thanks for the reminder

You persevered @annoyedattheukba Congrats!
Hopefully you are a stronger person through this process but there is no denying the system is extremely complex and takes its casualties incl. what it means to a person's mental health!
