Hi everyone, My wife has the same issue. Her application was submitted on 7 June, she hasn’t received any email yet even though the website states that an email should be sent before 23 July. If they are reusing your biometrics, when do they send that email?

Even if you get the biometrics reuse email, that doesn't mean that you'll get a decision soon.
As UKVI is working on a system through which we would be able to send our facial image.
I got that email close to a month back but I'm still waiting for another email wherein I could share my photo.
Hooefull it'll be there soon.

Same here, my boyfriend was told on Jul 3rd that he was eligible for re-using his biometrics but ever since then we heard nothing. I was wondering if anyone already got a follow-up email or submitted anything? He submitted his original tier 2 application on May 8th...

I haven't got anything about facial image and re-use uploading mail even I have mail about their plans about sending the link. Probably, nobody has got it yet.Hope it can be sorted in soon.

Got an update the other day, saying that the app for submitting biometrics will roll out during August. Apparently one can opt out of the app until Aug 7th, hopefully the app will be functional around that time.

Anyone who attended a biometric appointment at a UKVCAS centre and received decisions, please could you post in the 'in-country timelines'?
Thanks

Hi everyone,
I got an email saying that I'm eligible to reuse my biometrics and I don't need to go to an appointment and in a couple of weeks I'll get another email with instructions about it.
I registered at UKVAS on 27th April. Tier2 visa extension.
Regards.
I am also got the same email that they are going to reuse my previous biometric and I was registered at UKVCAS on 2nd April, switching from tire2 dependent to tire 2 general
Hi, did you submit the Tier 2 ICT dependent to Tier 2 General within the UK? Have they accepted your application? There seems to be quite a lot of confusion.. please confirm.
