Yes we are just waiting for the biometrics to be done and then will forward the link as I have heard (correctly or not) that the checks will only come back with right to work after biometrics.
Yeah, I'm not sure exactly when the application will show up in the checking system.
On a side note, when I booked the appointment on the UKVCAS website it stated that I have the option to upload my documents in advance of the appointment and that I need to go through each category and upload but when I checked the status of each file is 'submitted' so does this mean its already been done and I don't need to do anything re: documents?
Well, you said in a post on Sept 14th that you had submitted the application and uploaded the documents... which means there's nothing more to do. So, you just ignore what it said when you booked the appointment, because you already completed and submitted the uploads 9 days ago.
Normally what happens, without all the changes due to Covid is:
- submit the online application, register with UKVCAS and book an appointment... all on the same day
- upload the documents after booking the appointment and before attending biometrics
However, because of Covid and not being able to book appointments right away, the UKVCAS website has had the option to upload the documents before booking appointments. Therefore, if you already uploaded before booking the appointment, there's no need to do anything else.
