Tier 2 Priority delay

Post by nathybes » Tue Jun 12, 2018 3:11 pm

Hi,

We applied for Tier 2 visa (change of employment) on 25th May through Priority Service. However, we haven’t received any reply yet. Do you have any clue about what we can do?

Thank you.

I also applied for change of employment on tier 2 priority post on 31 May but no news still. Let us know if you hear anything.
Have you tried to ask your employer if they heard anything as they can see the the status of the COS.

I have called the home office. They say decision has been reached( on May 30). However, I still have not received any mail from them. The visa application centre has not recieved the decision or our passports back. This wait is not easy at all.

Hi everyone!

I sent an email to Priority service yesterday and they said that a decision was made on our case and the documents was sent to our solicitor on Friday 8th. Yesterday our solicitor came back to me and said that our visa was approved and BRPs have been issued.

Thank you.
