Hi,
We have just been asked for original copies of police certificates, final residency fees and medical request. Money and police certificates not an issue and will line up medical asap.
Some questions though if anyone can help?
What I would like to know is how long after sending all information and having medicals will we get the final request for passports and decision?
Is there a wait normally to get a medical done?
and finally what does the medical entail?
Thanks
Julie

Thanks. To be honest this is what I am worried about most. All points system stuff we kind of knew was going to be OK but worried they will find some otherwise unknown medical issue and end the dream after so much and so long. Paranoid now so close ;-(

As far as the wait is concerned, I rang the practice in Knightsbridge, London, and was told I could probably make an appointment within a week (though there is just me, so you'd probably have to wait longer for a family appointment; best thing to do is to ring and enquire, which costs nothing).
Good luck

PS Just as an afterthought - I've been asked for my medical and final fee, but not a mention about police checks. Does anyone know why that might be? Will I be asked later?

If you're all in good health otherwise... why worry? Easy to say, of course... but I know of people with pre-existing medical conditions (including those who've had major surgery) who've still made it through.

Requesting for medical and landing fee is normal and if they haven't ask for PCC, they may not need. I suggest the place where you last stayed for more then six month, get copy of PCC in advance...just in case...to save time..

Trackitt indicate average 2-4 months for PR request for old cases and 1-2 month for new case. All the best
