Hi all,
Just posting an update.
My partner is still waiting for his visa. It has now been 40 days since he gave his biometrics.
The MP wrote to me last Thursday saying we should receive an answer in two weeks. This coincides with 15 days after his case was "escalated". My partner also submitted a claim Tuesday last week, since it had been 35 days since giving the biometrics, with conflicting updated and little communication from UKVI.
I called the UKVI and of course they were completely unhelpful, saying we have to wait 15 days after the escalation and that they will let us know. I am pretty desperate at this stage, with lockdowns in Italy and UK, I am not sure we'll be able to be back at all. Also, our house contract is expiring and we cannot renew, since we do not know if we'll be back to the UK.
So at this stage, I don't know if we'll ever receive a reply. All of this for a 6 months visa.
