standard applications get delays?

Sounds more like they were "unwilling" to accept my application then rather than "willing" without more information. Sounds like an obvious point but it colours the request somewhat differently.

I still find it very strange that I was asked to submit a P60 or payslip to confirm continuing employment when my original application had a letter from my current employer in the first place stating how long I have been employed. Even though the letter wasn't required I included it because I have a complicated travel history (I travel A LOT for work -- I am within the UK presence requirements, but it is extremely difficult to glean my travel history from my passports).

Anyways, nothing I can do now but wait.

As you mentioned about your travel history, might be that's why they have asked for further documents. Best of luck and keep us updated when you hear from them.

Thanks

I applied BC application on 24 Jan last month for me and my family, sent through postal and know the HO received on the following day by checking the royal tracking. Since than didn’t receive confirmation or taken the money from the bank nor biometric request.
Is this normal as i have seen many applications got responses in week or two.
Let me know anyone like my situation please
Thanks

This is normal - response times are variable.
