That's so annoying you have had to wait for this long and I hope you hear back soon. I am not sure which family route you applied but my spouse applied for a spouse visa extension in the last half of 2021 and did receive the visa within the official times prescribed.higgs1818 wrote: ↑Sun Mar 06, 2022 11:58 pmI'm sorry to rant on here... Is anyone else in the same position?! I can't be the only person waiting now into my 7th month to hear anything, anything at all, from the HO about my visa extension to remain in the UK?
There's been absolutely nothing.
No email/txt/letter to say that it would be more than 8 weeks...
My complaint email received no reply...
My MP a few months back, who wrote to the HO, received no reply...
They cannot tell you anything on the phone line...
How long am I supposed to wait in this visa black hole?
I do have great great sympathy for all those affected by the pandemic, Afghanistan and now Ukraine... but I still have a right to know, how long is the HO backlog, and when I might hear something on an application, that a solicitor originally said should be 'a standard straight forward application'. Why can't they even just say, that due to the current issues, there is a backlog of 6 months or a year?
Has anyone successfully had a family visa extension to remain in the UK, applied for and accepted within the last 6 months?
I'm honestly wondering if mine has simply become lost from the system. How would I know when they don't communicate?
Your experiences / feedback is appreciated.
I've created a poll too - please indicate how long have you waited for your extension to remain in the UK - If you submitted it in the last half of 2021. Thank you.
That may be news to both the MPs and the Home Office.
