how come? You juat submitted your spousal sponsorship and trv and you already got uci?
i think it's because for trv app, you need to do biometrics first before they can process the application. and i know for trv, they would request for your biometrics a day or two after submitting the application ..and you can't do biometrics without having uci. so i guess that's the reason why he got his uci that fast..
 
Hello peoples, can we apply for TRV without applying for sponsorship first?

You can certainly apply for the TRV first but then I don't think you will benefit from the special measures. As I read the rules, you need to submit the sponsorship application first if you want to benefit from the special measures announced.

The confusion is do we need to wait for AOR which is taking 3 months on average these days and no processing is done or even started until then. If AOR is really required, then that goes against this announcement of reuniting spouses because 3 months will be completely wasted. Maybe we should apply for both at the same time to get the TRV as quickly as possible?
 
Hi

Does anyone know if we need to show significant ties to home country if there's already AOR, SA, medical and bio completed and purpose is to spend time while waiting for PR? Is showing travel history to different countries enough?

They did not ask anywhere for this proof, just passport, stamps, visas , and proof of funds, for which sponsor wrote a statement with bank statements as requested.
 
It will
Merge automatically. It did on my husbands file he applied for trv 2 days ago
Sorry I don't understand you well because I'm from France and I use a translator to understand English :)
Did they ask you for biométric again?
thank you so match.
 
@Charbk What reason did you gave in TRV file ,did you submit any extra document or invitation letter in your application ?
It’s the same requirements as before. Proof of funds, invitation letter, itinerary etc. Nothing has changed with the requirements.
 
Well yes you need AOR. AOR is confirmation that they have begun working on your file. And it’ll contain information that you’ll mention in the TRV (file number and pa’s Uci) so that your pr file can be traced. People apply for or and 2 months go by and the file is rejected and they never receive AOR because of missing signatures…forms etc.
Side note: the system can detect what’s been done already the moment you apply because biometric applied less than 24hours later it was marked completed.

No it automatically updates itself. Less than 24 hours after we applied for TRV, biometric was already marked completed because it’s done from PR application
