Just phoned HO and spoke to an advisor to check for any updates on my application and as usual he said â€œUnder Considerationâ€

How do you know when your applications were assigned to a caseworker? did you call a number to check?

Many thanks for your prompt response

As I am a pre-Nov 2006 HSMP participant, my case was decided on the JR judgement even though I applied on a Tier - 1 form, fulfilled all the requirements and had 120 points. But I am happy for this to end successfully which ever way.

I dont know why did it take the HO so long to post the visas.

I am grateful to every one here for their kind support and guidance through out.

Thank you and best wishes

Waiting for the post and the last minute thrill.

Hope it is good news for you.

By the way, did you call 0114 **** number? then press 2, then press 1?
Every time after hearing the answer machine telling me the current processing date, it drops the line. Should I press 2 for general query?

Thank you guys. Let me also hope for some good news.

Yes i have called 0114******* number. Pressed 2 for Tier1 PBS and then pressed 2 for general enquiry and then pressed 1 for enquiry regarding HSMP Judicial Review. Though my application is not HSMP judicial review, managed to get the response from them.

waitinggame · Post by **waitinggame** » Wed Oct 15, 2008 3:30 pm

Hi Sep01,

I called them yesterday around midday. The CR told me my documents have been posted. Although when I called earlier yesterday they told me my application was still under consideration and they could not give any specific time frame for it to be resolved.

So in short their systems seem to be a bit slow in terms of having current status.

Best Regards

hi all,

I applied on the 16th of September and called the HO this am. They told me my application was completed yesterday and is my documents were to be dispatched to another department and my passport should be received by the end of next week.

any thought on that?

thanks

Jay4you · Post by **Jay4you** » Wed Oct 15, 2008 4:46 pm

Just Spoke to HO & been told that a decision is been made on my application & it's been sent back to me this afternoon and I should receive it in next 2-3 days. Judging by the last few posts, it seems that many applications were posted out at the same time?

Next couple of days will be hellish

Let's hope for good news
