All December and January Initial Applicants Please post here your experiences.......
I'm starting this thread since December/january applicants might be confused where to post.
I want to share my experience -- I'm still waiting for approval ....
I've sent my application on 6th Dec through FedEx ... they have provided good tracking facility
It reached HO on 10th of Dec
Payment mode is Demand Draft and it was encashed on 17th of December. ( I've called them and got to know)
I recieved a mail on 19th of Dec with Reference number 2418**
On the same day i have recieved another mail saying
" We are in the process of completing your application for HSMP. However
before we send out your decision letter and supporting documents, we
require your residential address. We cannot send out the decision letter
and supporting documents to the 'care of' address provided, they have
to be sent to your residential address. Please provide your residential
address as soon as possible "
Since i'm staying in rented house i have given care of my owner.
So please dont write C/O( Care of ) in your address even if you stay in rented house.
I have replied back giving my permanent address and was waiting for mail and the holidays to finish.
Finally on 27th i have called up HO .. to know whether the address is updated ...
They said they dont have any information and they asked me to re-reply the mail.
I have nothing to do other than re-replying.
and on 3rd of Jan i got a mail saying your address is updated.
I have called HO today for the status....they said to Wait Until you get a mail to arrange the courier.
Little bit tensed ...for me its 19th Working Day.
Lets see whats going to happen....
Rgds,
Ashhok
