Going by what I've seen on this forum and the people I know personally I would say many more people apply for FLR/ILR by post than in person. Going by this thread it seems like it's difficult to get an appointment anyway.Originally Posted by Arthur Little
... DO they, though? Okay ... it may be COSTLIER to apply in person ... but I'd have thought it would be a lot less HASSLE ... because ... based on the assumption that all documents were in order ... then surely it means the applicant can simply walk out [from wherever] with his/her visa later the same day as the paperwork is submitted.
You probably won't have to wait for a result if you apply in person (same day isn't guaranteed..) but it's definately more hassle especially if you don't live near a PEO - your nearest PEO is Glasgow, my nearest PEO is Croydon which for me would have been a 2 hour journey each way and therefore would have meant a day off work. Far more hassle than just nipping into the post office and sending it special delivery.
