lightpace,
Which other pilot countries are you aware of?. These will definitely increase the processing time of applications from those countries. Maybe some June /after june applications are undergoing this home country verification.
I think we can sample situation by answering the questions below. This will serve as a guide and a way of predicting the processing level of the scheme: 1. Do we have any June Applicant that hasn't got a decision from HO and has he got in touch with HO and any response from them. 2. Do we have any o...
My application was received on 27th Jan. With the present situation that early January applicants have started receiving their decision now. Will I be luck to have my application process with the next few weeks or will I join the long queue of 8months +. Can anybody predict please?
Based on opinions and recent publications, it likely the new changes take effects from April or May after the election. So 1st March is still alright but its better if you can get it in earlier.
Although my application was delievered on 26th Jan (From DHL tracking), I am yet to receive my reference # from HO. I hope HO will not claim that I submitted after the new change as payment (used UK postal) may be delaying the acknowledgement.
