FLR(M) premium visa upgrade help!

Hi

I submitted an online FLR (M) application a couple of weeks ago and I chose the standard service (biometrics done at the post office and sent supporting documents by post). But then I found out the I need my visa to arrive sooner than the expected completion date (8 weeks) and I want to transfer my postal application to be to a premium one

I had a look at this link and I am not sure if the upgrade is possible now that the premium centres are closed
https://www.gov.uk/government/publicati ... -available

It seems like now you can only get fast desicion at the time of application submission. Am I right? Is there a new way for service upgrade? Can I upgrade through UKCVAS?

Please help

Thank you

There is no longer an upgrade service available.

You will need to wait to hear from HO.

Thank you for that.

I have been following this thread since I submitted my application. It looks promising that many got their BRPs within 6 weeks!

fingers crossed!
