It is unusual to see not much approvals this week.

Hoping to see a surge of approval letters mid of next week, hopefully if HO dispatches a lot of them today. ! Not sure if that is the way they do it, though.

Sounds exactly like the same song since the last 4 weeks mate!

Are they not running late compared to last year timelines , last year at this time they were onto jan 2week application.

Any thought why ?

Because rules changed on 28th octobr 2013 and that caused a pile of application as the back log

Send them original straight away, if degree is studied and gained in UK, no need of Naric.
and also, don't worry, they can ask for originals even if submitted by NCS. It is normal, they randomly apply their procedure.
Good Luck!

Hi Guys,

I have a quick question, I applied on 7th of Nov and my money was debited from my account on 20th of Jan, I Got a letter from UKBA requesting to send me the original documents for English and life in the UK Certificates. I had submitted these documents through NCS services.

I have UK Master degree and had submitted a copy of my degree certificate, are not UK universities deemed to UK NARIC, should i need to send my Bachelor's and Master degree to UK NARIC to get certified.

I will be sending my Original UK Master Degree Certificate and Life in the UK Test certificate tomorrow, is that not sufficient?

They have asked to send documents by 14/02/14

Any reply will be of great help

Get it to them as quickly as possible, your application is definitely being looked at for final decision, my thought! The original docs should suffice.

They shouldnt ask for these documents as you have sent these documents through NCS, whch verify the documents ad them send the photocopies to HO.
ANYWAY TTOE is right send thm quickly as it looks like you are the next to post your approval here
