Permanent Residence Card - Processing Time 2017

[dijasu]

Anyone submit their application at the end of May get their biometric appointment? Going on 7 weeks now for me & waiting for the mail is excruciating.

Paid for mine online on the 31st, biometrics received on the 30/06

Ah, thank you! Not sure if that's comforting or not...lol...but hope it means I'll at least get that appointment letter soon!

I applied online in April, I can track my application using the Roayl Mail tracker -the one that council gave me- something like ARXXXXXXXXXGB . It says that decision was made on 19 of June but I haven't received anything- I was trying to call but they couln't help me- they charged me 20 pounds and didn't say anything. Any one have an idea what is happening and why I'm not receiving anything?

Myganet
Did you receive the decision letter and your documents back??

R u non eu citizens

[GabriellaG]

Hi All,

I applied for my PR today on basis of Retained Right of Residence. I am a non-EU family member after divorce with EU Spouse.

Hoping the processing time is more around the 4month mark but by the looks of it it is much longer and I should just expect it to be 6 months.

Any non-EU applications taken quicker than 6 months?
Will be tracking my progress. Here to help anyone too who is applying on same basis:

Enter your Case ID number without entering zero so let's say for examaple your case ID is (0123456), you should enter it as (123456) exculde the first letter of zero. Hopefully it will work for you.

Hi All,

Apologies for asking the question again but seems relevant here again. My status says "Decided" with the date of 8th of July.

My question is can you make an assumption based on that that you've been successful ?

My application was made online on the 10th, documents received on the 12th and no further communication in between these dates.

Many thanks,

[Crentsil03]

12th may or April

It's pointless because I have no ''0'' in front of my CaseID. So I just have to wait. But thanks anyway.
