is it tls or the high commission you spoke to?, cause i also did keep my passport, so i know how best to follow up

BolaT53:


Yes oh after I disturbed them very well. I’ll start disturbing them again. And yes the lady said a week.

wow finally they asked you to submitted your passport. Thank God. i believe within a week you should get your passport back.

BolaT53:
Hello everyone please where do they stamp our passports. I submitted my passport on Tuesday I opted to hold my passport while my application is being processed.

fingers crossed tomorrow or next they will mail you. the next mail we will see by God's grace from you will be visa alert

BolaT53:


At all oh. When I got there the lady told me they have to send me a mail to bring my passport that I should just hold on I’ll get the mail soon because she took the print out I had and went to check their system.

any luck submitting your passport?

BolaT53:


Oh you submitted yours without a mail and they collected it? Thank you let me try my luck and submit mine.

No, i am unsure but speaking to someone at tls abuja and they said one week. ps the person is not a staff, just one of the people that stand outside tls, helping people get biometrics date but i think you can return your passport without getting a mail to return it. i dropped mine off yesterday. but i don't think they have gotten to my application. did biometrics on the 5th of jan.

Good morning. In my case I haven't been called to submit my passport despite a decision been made. Fingers crossed.

Any idea how long does it take from submission of passport and placing the vignette to return of the passport to applicant?

maybe call ukvi againt to escalate it or good to British high commission

9th December, TLS Ikeja.

Where did you submit your biometrics?

to the best of my knowledge they have not yet sent 17th to VAC as at this morning, maybe that would be done later today, so i think you can expect them to send you an email to submit your passport soon

BolaT53:
Good afternoon everyone. I did my biometrics on the 17th. Sent a paid mail on Friday and I was told my application is awaiting a decision. Sent another one today and I was told a decision has been made. Please I opted for a keep my passport option.

Have you submitted your passport back to tls?

BolaT53:
Has anyone opted for the keep my passport option. If yes please what is the procedure I have been told a decision has been made on my application.

have you submitted your passport back to tls?

Russkii:


I applied also using the keep my passport service. Decision has been made since 23rd December but no collection mail. TLS Ikeja. 9th December Biometrics
