Vendor claiming property is under first time registration

Hi community,

Question :
Is there a way to check to if seller has requested to rregister the property for the first time?

Background :
I have been told by my conveyancing solicitor and estate agent that seller has requested to expidite the first time registration on the grounds of sale. As per them it was made just after Christmas. We are in mid february,and. I am getting only one response that they have not heard from Land registry. So wondered if there is a way to cross check.
 

Hi Amitkumar - what's the postal address or title number please?

99 Rampton Road , Willingham, CB24 5JQ

Amitkumar - many thanks
Submitted on 14th January. Expedited on 15th January. Partially processed on 3rd February. Unfortunately we needed more from the conveyancer and they were contacted on the 5th February and we await their response.
You will need to contact the conveyancer to confirm and to clarify what has been requested/when they hope to respond in full as appropriate

Thank you very much Adam, much appreciate your help.

I will request the estate agent to get in contact with seller.

Hello Adam,

I have been informed that solicitor has got in contact with Land Registry, I hope it is true. And it won't be long before registartion will be done. I want to finish the completion before end of March to save thounsands of pounds due to stamp duty changes.
 

Hello Amitkumar - if they have replied then it has yet to reach the application itself.

thanks for swift reply, appreciated.

Hello Adam, 

Me again, any update ? Appreciate your help.

As I mnetioned I planning to get the completion done by end of March for obvious reasons.

Hello Amitkumar - still no reply from conveyancer
Do understand and appreciate the urgency but the ball is very much in the conveyancer's court and I'd recommend contacting them to confirm and to clarify when they hope to respond

Thanks Adam. I have been given false stories by vendor on this. I will contact estate agent to follow up with them. 

Hello Adam

DId get following response

“As far as I am aware the solicitor has now answered all queries from the Land Registry and has sent the documentation back to them.”

Hope it will reach to Land registry soon. Fingers crossed

Amitkumar - more has now been received (yesterday afternoon) and added to the application. That reply has bene referred to one of our lawyers to consider and to confirm next steps. So matters are progressing - will check with casework team to see if they can offer an idea re remaining timescales

Thanks ever so much Adam. You have been immense help in stressful times. Can't thank you enough. Hoping we through it soon.

Please do update if you hear about the timeline, thanks in advance

Morning Amitkumar - it's on referral to a senior technician to approve the reply and agree next steps. It's expedited status keeps it moving asap but we won't have a better timescale until that consideration has taken place
