Although looking at the wording, it looks mightily familiar and right now you want to be treating yourself to a celebratory cup of tea.
Congrats!!!!!

Re: First Steps! UK -> Canada
The document I have doesn't say anything about putting the file id on the paperwork I send? Should I wait for a proper letter before sending anything?

Re: First Steps! UK -> Canada
Hmm that's odd. I printed out the attachment in the email and it requested the File ID on the top left of the page where you fill out your name, address, passport number, etc. It's titled section 2.

Re: First Steps! UK -> Canada
Ah yes, totally misread that due to excitement! So now I have 3 different ID's for my case? I guess file number = UK office generated, thus use it on the form. I totally wouldn't have know it was from the subject line. I can't rep you again sadly!!

Re: First Steps! UK -> Canada
Yeah so the file ID is in the subject line of your email beginning with B. Just plonk that in the correct box on the form with your details, send it off recorded with your passport and a self addressed envelope (don't have to prepay anything) and sit back and wait for your shiny visa.
Simples!!!
So chuffed for you.

Re: First Steps! UK -> Canada
I do actually have one last query. They haven't used my sponsor's current address on the letter I give to migration, they've used a previous one!
Anyone have a clue how I sort that out? The only number we have is some automatised line that is little use!
