Hi all
A quick question for those who've been through the process...when London actually starts processing, do they issue a new Client ID/File ID for the sponsored spouse or does the same Client ID that I received in my sponsorship approval letter stay with our application until the end?
My wife changed her name on her passport to my surname after we sent in the application so I need to submit a new passport scan. I was told by the London VO that it would be no problem but I should wait until they had begun processing. Unfortunately I don't think they send out AORs and my eCas hasn't been updated to "In Process" even though it has been more than 40 days since the file was transferred. I'm thinking of submitting it anyway in case they're working on it but just not updating eCas, but don't want to do it if we're due to receive a new ID of some kind.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
All the best,
Mike
