Settlement Priority Visa Processing Times

[ganesh46]

Hello All,

I have been following this (Freedom of Information) website to understand the UK Settlement (Priority) visa processing times.

Attachment (‘FOI 45048 Annex 1’ – scroll to the bottom) from the below URL speaks about the processing times for settlement priority visa for the decisions made in Q1 2017. This information comes directly from UKVI and it claims that they have processed 89% of priority application in less than 9 working days. Any thoughts?

Hope I haven’t broken the forum rules by sharing the URL.

Have filed Settlement Priority visa on 3rd Oct 2017. Good luck to all waiting!!!

Also the visa application processing times website has been updated with September 2017 data however settlement visa data is missing in some of the cases (for e.g. Hyderabad, India). Looks like things are speeding up!

I am waiting for my new Non-Priority application. We only did the bio-metrics the other day. Following this feed will certainly be of benefit to me. Please keep updating.

I have read many feeds are in regarding processing times and have read the official UK gov website which implies processing times from 1 - 2 months. The threads on here propose a different story of anything between 2 - 6 months. I hope the HO process visas quicker now the University students are now in full flow.

With all due respect, there are many applicants (priority and standard) waiting in excess of 60-90 days. We do not need another never ending topic on this with low value 'still waiting', 'when did you apply', 'where did you submit', 'any updates anyone' type posts.

Lets keep the one we have (for now not locked as yet) instead of starting new topics.
