IDV is useless and letting HO give excuse for piling up more backlog and to clear the applicants at the centre first.

Bit frustrated. My partner got his decision the next day, and I then submitted the application with my daughter together. We have waited for over 2 weeks. Hopefully we can get the decision next week. Fingers crossed.

I have emailed the MP and he emailed UKVI to expedite my case on 11/09/2020, which is a Friday. Out of my surprise, I got the decsion letter on 12/09/2020. I do not think it is concidence! But good luck everyone.

If there are others waiting this long after biometrics please post - lots of quick turnaround times (congrats if you've had a fast approval!) but hard to know if that's the norm or the exception.
