Upgrade to Super Priority after Biometrics

Post by ShahryarSh » Wed Apr 21, 2021 3:51 pm

Hi,

Just wanted to ask you how you withdrew your standard application? Was your visa expired already or it was still valid?

I applied via standard route on 03/02/21, and my biometric the day after. I would like to see if I can withdraw the standard application and apply again via super priority. My visa is already expired though. So I’m not sure if it’s possible.

Thanks,
Shahryar

1. Please do NOT post questions in the TIMELINE ONLY topics.

2. You CANNOT upgrade to super priority. Also if you withdraw your application after biometrics, you lose the ILR fee paid and as your visa has already expired, you will be an overstayer.

Standard service can take up to 6 months from date of biomterics. Sometimes it takes a bit longer.

What route did you apply with? If you look at the timeline, SET(M) for example, people who applied in early November, usually did biometrics in mid to late November or early December, are currently getting decisions.

Over the past month or so, the average is 5 months 10 days from date of application, 4 months 18 days from date of biometrics. But keep in mind that could change, and it is based only on what people have reported in the timeline (a relatively small sample of the total).

SET(O) has entirely different times.
