If you deleted the other one, then they wouldn't have sent the wrong one as I think they only hit submit (as in send off to HO) after the biometrics have been taken.

I hope that’s the case. I hope they send the documents as they are at that moment on the upload site

Hmm. I couldn’t go in with her and my wife’s not the best at asking stuff. I’m just absolutely shitting it thinking the wrong employer letter has gone from before Thursday...

The wrong one wouldn't have gone off to HO (you;re honestly shitting it over nothing, I promise). it just would be that they may not have checked the quality of the image due to when you uploaded it. As Sputnika said, they only physically hit send at the end of the biometrics appointment. That's when it formally goes off to Home Office.

I feel better thanks you two.

Although they said we’d hear Monday/Tuesday, where is the 24 hours?!

Weekends are outside working hours for UKVI. You can pay for an out of hours appointment, but the 24 hour clock doesn't start ticking until an actual "in hours" time (weekday)

What about citizenship? :)  I think there's a lot to be said for getting it over with while you have some momentum going!
