This is a timeline thread, not a general question about your application thread. If you read the timelines above your thread you will get an idea of how long it can take. HO sends you biometric letters. Try and do a bit of research and reading on the forum to find your answers to such basic questions or read the FAQs sticky Topic.

As Wandsworth NCS was used so assume Yes

That's why you got quick decision. Because giving unofficially the priority treatment to pilot scheme users which is such a shame on them as they cheating other ones already in queue.
