How to find timeline for standard visa?

Post by sneha1594 » Thu Jan 02, 2020 9:56 am

Hello Folks,

I applied for T4 visa in standard service on 13th December 2019 and my course starts on 20th January 2020. I received mail that my application is received in Sheffield on 19th December 2019.
I haven't booked my flight and accommodation since I am waiting for my visa.

As per UK holidays, I am assuming its 13th working day today to my application. Please correct me if I am wrong. Could you please tell me if I can contact UKVI to know the timelines for my visa?

Hi,

I think the 2nd of January would be your 11th day working day. You have to exclude Christmas and Boxing day, as well as New Years. I applied on the 9th of December and am yet to hear from them. The standard visa time is 15 working days, but if there are any complications it may take longer.

Did you get any email yet? I've also applied on December 12th and still haven't received any mail. I have my flight on Jan 9th as my course starts on Jan 13th. I had called UKVI on Monday and they said a decision has been made and that I should get a mail from my Visa Application Centre in 2 days max.
