Any US April applicants still waiting? I'm at day 66 today (April 26th bio date) and no word.
What date were your documents received in Sheffield for processing? The biometrics date is irrelevant... they don't start the processing time until after they have received the documents and have logged your application into the system.
Also, did you pay for priority processing, or just send it non-priority?
I did, and in my wait I've contacted the enquiry service a few times. All of their response emails state they count from the biometric date.
That's general advice for all countries - however, each country has a different method of submitting the application... in some countries you submit your documents on the same day as the biometrics appointment, so UKVI get the documents immediately and can log them into the system and start the processing time from that date.
However, in the US, you give biometrics before submitting the documents and then have 5 days to mail them to Sheffield. Then it takes a couple more days for them to be received and a few days or even a couple of weeks for the application to be logged.
So, they can't really start the processing time on the biometrics date, because the time between you having biometrics taken and them receiving your documents is your responsibility, not theirs... they aren't going to include the time it takes you to get the documents to them in the calculation of how long it takes them to process the visa.
