@Arsal385 ... Just wondering how did you get the numbers 800+ apps for aug ..did they publish the number of applications on UKBA website last time some one requested to know the number of applications and they were refused .

97 staff deciding 800 apps working 6 Days a week ... upto 6 apps decided in a Day by one case worker according to HO FOI request the stats

so even if they have ..... 75 staff present doing at least 2 apps a day i 150 apps a day .... so In theory they must complete all apps in 10 working days .....lets wait and watch ;-) ..... unless they sleep on applications ahhahahahahhahahahahhahahah[/quote][/quote][/quote]

Just wondering how did you get the numbers 800+ apps for aug ..did they publish the number of applications on UKBA website last time some one requested to know the number of applications and they were refused .

It is true that they didn’t publish or disclose the figures yet but based on the fact that August/Sept are always the busy months of the year plus taking into account of the number of the applicants in August last year and growing number of August applicants for this year every day, I am now quite certain that It could be somewhere between 800-1200 applications for August alone.

Full 97 staff not always present to clear your application backlog and not everyone is working 6 days a week.

Not all the applications are similar in nature. Each application is different in terms of its complexity and requires co-ordination with other departments/agencies so obviously time should not be calculated same for each application. June/July applications were low in quantity but still there is a backlog and they haven’t decided all of them yet including our small tracker.[/quote]


Bravo@ Arsal385.. Lets hope for the best ;-) take one day at a time it was a dry day yesterday with no decisions hope we get some today updated on tracker ;;

they will come towards the end of this week. bear in mind there may be more than 800 applications in August alone. which will certainly push all the sept oct applications towards the start of new year.

I getting a bit worried regarding my application.
Here is my timeline:
Application sent: 28-06-14
Application received by HO: 30-06-14
Biometric received and done: 15-07-14

Since then I have been waiting i think there are dealing with August case now.
Everytime I am calling, the call center they say that my case is still pending.

Is it normal?

Thank you for helping
Dear all
I have an exact problem with the very similar dates. Just wondering why the decision hasn't been made yet?(as it's a straight forward application made at the end of june-nearly 4 month and 2 weeks now)
Any advice would be much appreciated.
All the best to the members who are still waiting for their approvals

I gave them an IELTS certificate that I did in 2009 when I went for the interview back in August. Let's hope it's not going to take any longer.

Just wondering if HO are fast enough for August applicants looking at Google drive, it appears that HO have only approved 9 out of 49 applications made in August. Today is 10th already. Hope to get some positive feedback this week.
fingers crossed.
