We are in the same boat. Not sure how to resolve it.

Father received ILR on 11th March 2022. Children born in the UK 2018 and 2021 respectively.

Application submitted: 3rd April 2022 online
Biometrics: via IDV app on 13th April 2022
Approval email: waiting
Certificate of registration: waiting

On 18th May 2022 received an email Biometrics not submitted. UKCAS confirmed Biometrics successfully received and no further action required. Submitted complaint to UKCAS and then to UKVI. Got an automatic response that they will reply on 20 days. Still waiting.

It been 9 month since we applied and no answers.
I emailed HO few times and the answer is always the generic one as "we are sorry its in process"
Emailed them again and got this answer
The applications have been submitted for consideration under Section 3(1), currently our policies for consideration under Section 3(1) are under review.



Until we have been given updates for these policies we are unable to complete the considerations of the applications and we have no time frame for when this review will be completed.



Once we are able to make a decision on these applications we will be able to advise you of the outcome.



Many thanks.

It's almost one year since the application been made 😭
