Wow that is a big, and I would have to say very welcome jump. Tough I have yet to see any outside reports of people who did biometrics after 24 April getting their response. It looks like the wedge may finally be working itself through.

While there is no guarantee on how long yours will take, I am pretty sure they are approaching if not past considering some that were given on 21 May. I did my Bio on 10 May and they decided mine last Wednesday. Keep in mind if they do verification checks it can add significant amounts of time, in some cases several months.

Hi, I need an advice I have my Bio on June 15th but my flight to UK is on July 8th. Is there a possibility that I can get the answer before that date, usually how many labor days do the use for answering?

Also, Is it guaranteed that I will receive my visa or passport by a certain date?
