Yes they will send you a document if you are needed to do the biometrics. The form we were sent can be done at a post office so is quite easy except ours was faulty and we had to go into Croydon.
It took about a month after that for the forms to go through.

It seems the average is about 12 to 16 weeks.

Regards
