No available UKVCAS appointments in any services

Post by mma_jd » Thu Jun 18, 2020 11:57 am

Hi, I'm starting to get pretty worried now. I applied for citizenship over 3 months ago and I still haven't had my UKVCAS appointment done. I still need to get my biometrics and documents scanned. Obviously for 2 months I couldn't do anything as all the UKVCAS points closed, but they've now been open for nearly a month but every time I check theres no available appointments. Will this in any way affect my application, and also has anyone here been able to get appointments since they re-opened the service points on the 1st of June?

Hello

Apparently they are processing the backlog first. It means they give priority to people who had appointments before but were cancelled.

Also, with the social distancing measures in place, I don't think they are operating at full capacity. Probably the output is lower if they need to comply with current measures about Covid-19.

Keep checking the system at various times until you manage to snap an appointment.
