Biometric Letter not received yet and its now 2 months

Post by nish_patel7 » Tue Feb 19, 2013 3:35 am

I have applied for the ent visa on 18 dec 2012 and have not received the biometric letter upto now. Has anyone got the same problem like me? And is it may be because when I came to this country 4 years ago I gave my biometric from back home, So may be they already have my biometric details. I am not sure what leads to this much of delay.

Thanks,
Nishant

Hi Nishant,

even if you gave biometrics back when applying for the first time, you still have to submit biometric again..

1. have you called up the UKBA to say you havent recieved biometric?
2. Did you get your acknowledgement
3. Has the payment been taken from your account
4. Are you applying through a solicitor(if so have a word with him)

everytime you apply for visa you have to give biometric again, i will suggest you to ring ukba and enquire about the biometric letter.
