The UK Border Agency has announced that immigration applicants may now book appointments online under the following circumstances:
- an applicant may submit a “premium application” (for a higher fee) to receive a same-day decision during an in-person appointment at a public enquiry office; or
- an applicant who submitted an application by mail but needs to provide biometric information at either a public enquiry office or biometric enrollment center.
Family groups of 11 or more applying collectively must use the telephone booking service to schedule appointments. The telephone booking service will remain operative for individuals without internet access and for those who prefer to call.
