I’m right there with you on the same timeline. They didn’t email me for missing documents though. Hope we both hear this week!

It's nerve wracking! Feel like I'm in limbo, waiting for an answer so that we can move on with our lives.

I totally agree! I already rented my house and am temporarily staying with my mother, and I originally told my work that I thought my last day in the office would be this Friday... looks like that's definitely not happening. Luckily I work for an awesome company who is understanding... but I'm ready to get on with it!

Hope you get good news quickly. Like you I was lucky my employer was nice enough to let me just sit around at work lol. Thought I would be leaving in Dec . It will all work out and this will be a memory

Any news today?

I wake up every morning and check my emails hoping to see the "decision made" somewhere in my inbox. Nothing today....

Going to go to the gym to take my mind off it.

I do the same thing!

Nothing yet for us but we finally got our caseworker at our MP's office on the phone and convinced them to call the decision making center for an update. Hopefully tomorrow we will at least get some more information.

Nothing today for me either... I keep checking the return shipping label tracking too in case the email doesn’t get sent. Really hoping tomorrow brings good news!

Thank you all! Only thing is that I tried tracking my ups label I sent in with the application and it said "details are only available for shipments made within the last 120 days" so I'm unable to track it!

Goodness that's awful. Makes you realise how long the wait was...Did they give any reason? Why it was not straightforward?

I wake up every morning and check my emails hoping to see the "decision made" somewhere in my inbox. Nothing today....

Going to go to the gym to take my mind off it.

I spent the money to send another email to UKVI today (noting that it's been 36 working days, I paid priority, and am unsure if my documents made it through with their recent transition) and received a response that my case has been escalated to the relevant department and that I'll be contacted regarding my case within 15 working days. This might mean absolutely nothing, but at least I feel like I've done something to move this forward!

The first time I emailed UKVI, it was too early, so all they did was confirm that my application has been received, so at least this is a different response  ::)

If you had already emailed them, there was no need to pay again. You could have just continued that conversation.  :)

Unfortunately I tried that - no response within 3 days to my reply. The original email I sent was from February so I thought maybe they had a limit to how long you could reply  :) oh well!
