Email 2 weeks later from Home Office Atlas saying my son’s biometrics had not been enrolled. Called to try and find out what had happened as both done on same day. Ensured the email was an error.
Email received two weeks after this to say both of our biometrics not received. Made numerous calls and sent numerous emails to try find out the problem. Yet again ensured biometrics done. Eventually received email from NationalityExceptionsTechnical@homeoffice.gov.uk saying that checks had been done and there was a technical fault resulting in my son’s biometrics not being received. This was being investigated and no further action was required from me as they could see both biometrics had been done on the same day.
Now week 11.5 and still waiting for an update.

Following our assessment of your case, unfortunately it appears your application will not be processed within the 6 month target. This is because it is taking longer than usual to process applications because of coronavirus (COVID-19).
it's been 4 months, still no update.duranduran wrote: ↑Wed Aug 03, 2022 9:58 amIt’s been 3 months since my application and there is still no update. I’ve contacted to national inquiry and other emails I’ve found in this forum, all replied with automated replies. Also contacted MP, she said she she won’t follow up since the process takes 6 months.duranduran wrote: ↑Thu Jul 07, 2022 9:59 am- Eligibility criteria: 5 year Tier 2 + 1 year ILR

I've received an email on 21/06/2022 to submit my address history for 2017 to 2019, I've submitted this information the same day. I haven't received a reply for that email even though they said they will reply within 14 working days. Not sure if i have to contact them at this point.
Still waiting, it’s so frustrating.
