Hi, I applied today for IRL (Chelmsford) and asked if I should get a confirmation email from Sopra, they told me I wouldn't and that I would only get a Home Office email once decided. I felt the same way, they should send an email to confirm it has been sent.
I paid for premium so I did get only an email from the Home Office with the decision.

 

Question Re: UKVAS Chelmsford




Hello Angiela:

I made an appointment for the Sopra Steria in Chelmsford: the address on the UKVAS site says Victoria House but it doesn't come up on Google Maps: is that still the name of the
building? Thanks so much.

 

Sopra surprisingly came back quickly! See below, if helpful for others:

Thanks for your email. You would not have received a confirmation email from us. Your document's and Biometrics would have been submitted at the end of your appointment, unless stated otherwise. Once your Biometrics and supporting evidence have been submitted, UKVI will undertake the casework and make a decision. You will be advised of the decision within due course by UKVI. UKVCAS has no influence or information on applications once submitted, so we will be unable to respond to any status enquiries. You can contact them on 0300 123 2241 or visit their website on https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/uk-visas-and-immigration . Your account will still show your documents and appointment as this is so you can use your account again in the future.

 

Nope you get no confirmation other than the staff saying they have submitted the application after the meeting with sopra

currently naturalisation is taking average 8 weeks but can be up to 6 months

 

Hi, the address on the email is correct, the building is called Victoria House and it is near the train station. Good luck

 

Thanks!



Thanks Angiela!
