    London Visa Office 2020/2021 (Outland Applicants)

    Thanks. They asked for an updated Police Clearance Certificate, Family information form and probably one or two more similar forms. Probably it all expired because of them taking so long. UPDATE Got Decision Made and GCKey status now says Approved. I can also see a visa information there with...

    Sorry! We are in the UK now. We will be going to Bangladesh permanently. No plans of returning to the UK.

    UPDATE: The application status on ECAS changed to "Decision Made". Saw this yesterday. The thing is, we are about to leave the country soon. I won't be able to hand them my passport in case that "decision made" was a positive one and they want my passport. Should I be sending a webform to...

    We are still waiting! Anyone here applied for and got GCMS notes?

    I think you are talking about ECAS. Sadly, all I know about "application in process now" is that it means that the application is in process now. Considering that their processing can take anything from a few months up to several years, I wouldn't know what to make of it. Just to preserve your...

    I quickly took a look at the Pakistani LVO thread and it seemed like many of those who didn't get ADRs had super fast processing of all the next steps. We didn't hear anything since the ADR (sent on the 23rd of June). I'll check GCKey and ECAS and see if anything changed there.

    Thanks! Please do keep us updated. I sent them the document upload on Wednesday morning. Based on their previous rapid fire updates I assumed they'd respond quick. It felt like now we may have actual employees at LVO who've been assigned our cases to work on and they are just waiting for us to...

    They wanted us to send them new updated forms for Schedule A and Travel History. They also wanted a recent Police Clearance Certificate. Why does it matter where your papers are given that you've already gotten decision made? Or am I misremembering things. IDK!

    Anyone got any further communications from LVO? I sent them all the ADR stuff last week (Wednesday). No communications since then. Just wondering when LVO will emerge out of it's hole the next time and will it be scared of it's shadow or not.

    If I remember correctly, we had to pay that fee in advance when we first sent in our application (July/August 2020). We paid online and was given a receipt which we printed off and sent with the application. We also paid in advance for the biometrics which was later refunded to us because the...

    Just submitted all the ADR forms and Police Clearance. Hopefully it'll all go smoothly from here.

    YAY! Congratulations! See! I told you! That barrage of updates did come your way soon enough. Where did you see the Decision Made status? My ECAS is always so out of date that it's useless. I am guessing nothing will be done for our file until we get to send them the two forms and the new...

    Wow! Congratulations to you guys. It's good to see the LVO files finally moving.

    They said to include "Original signature" in the Schedule A form. Anyone know what that implies? I printed it out and then signed it and scanned and made a pdf all over again. Think that's what they wanted me to do?

    Yeah! It does look like that clarification will soon lead to a Pre-Arrival letter for you guys. I hope we will be able to ready everything and send them all the required stuff by next week.

    UPDATE: Got another email from them today asking for: 1. Schedule A (IMM 5669) :Newly completed, must include info going back all the way to when I was 18 and be signed by me. 2. Police Certificate 3. Supplementary Information - Your Travels (IMM 5562). They gave a 4 weeks deadline on sending...

    Hopefully they won't keep delaying and asking for more and requiring updated docs. While I fully acknowledge that you are being logical, I am not convinced if their process is logical. IF they truly start the security/background checks AFTER the Pre-Arrival, then it goes without saying that...

    My ECAS has been so slow updating that I don't even pay much attention to it. At this point I check and include it in discussions probably out of OCD. If by next month you don't hear anything, please request the GCMS notes or whatever that is called. It'll be 12 months if I recall correctly...

    It's good news for all of us because we have some tangible indication of some work being done at LVO. Someone must have gone through the file and went "It looks okay!". IF there is any truth to this flowchart: It'd imply that the next steps are the bundles of security and background checks. In...
