Hi all,
Called up HO today and i have been told that my case has been sent to Liverpool settlement department and upon asking whether has it been particularly assigned to any caseworker? i have been told Not Yet

has not it been strange as i applied end of September and it is still awaiting for a caseworker to be delivered but at the same time i do not fully believe the information we receive as there are for sure discrepancies in the information we get so it means we must not take seriously into consideration the information we get from the other hand.

I called the HO literally 5 minutes back and the guy checked and mentioned they are still dealing with September. Why is the HO giving mixed messages? Are they enjoying our suffering?
@ Maddy you're quite - all okay?
@mazeen1910 ...Discrepancy in the information provided is just because some experinced satff knows what they are doing and dig deep and give more info then others ...... yes october applicants must have started as I expected the last week of jan they will start anyways ...
Now there are quite few sep applicants waiting ..... yes they should get their decesions soon its just that some lazy case workers sit on some applications for long time .......while some finish the work start taking more apps

Thanks Maddy. Let's hope for the best. Don't forget us tomorrow when you get the good news..

what do you gurus think December applications will start to process ?
Thanks
@2015app

you don't need to wait long mate ...the reason is that there will be quite few applications ...in oct , nov ..... if my analysis is correct you should be getting approvals for 1-2 week in march

...I bet the average time waiting will be 12-15 weeks only ...
I looked at historical amount of applications in these months

@angelstha, for the reasons they have refused your app I've had identical issue but they approved mine so it must be a mistake by case worker to reject your application. Be strong and patient and fight for what's rightfully yours and I'm sure you'll get positive result. Thanks for all your support.
Many congratulations. Hopefully you are feeling great now and relieved. With regards to your wife's FLR(M), it's good idea to send the approval letter to speed up the process. They tend to clear the spouse application withing a week from main sponsor receiving ILR but it's always good to tap them at right time as you have the approval letter now. Hopefully you will receive her documents as well. Best of luck.

What is the avg processing time for reconsideration of the decision ?
I applied for reconsideration last year April till now I haven't receive any replay even I chase through MP but Ho replay to my MP that my request with the case worker they will send the replay in due course. But now I made a new application on17th December I don't know still they consider my reconsideration.
