NEW Premium Service

[S3TM]

From November 2018, UK Visas and Immigration is introducing new, streamlined services, allowing customers in the UK to submit all necessary evidence and personal information to support their application quickly and securely through a simpler journey.

• 2nd November: our partner Sopra Steria will have their appointment booking tool live;
  
  from 5th November: the new UK VCAS centres will start to open around the country;
  
  and all locations will be open by 29th November.
  
  During the period of 5th November – 29th November, the majority of customers can choose whether
  to enrol their biometrics and submit their documents via these new centres or use the existing
  processes via Premium Service Centres.
  
  29th November: Premium Service Centres will close

Anyone have anymore information about this NEW Visa Process? Will applications sent by post already be eligible for this?

Why are current applications on hold sent months ago... so fustrating!!

Where is this extract from? I can't find any reference to this new service on UKVI website.

Don't think I'm allowed to post external links. Someone posted this on facebook

It's a new visa process that will come into effect on 1st November or 5th November. Should be on UKVI website then.
