Agreed. While inquiring about my NCS appointment the NCS staff indicated they were fully booked in October due to rule changes. That coupled with postal strike suggest that Sep and Oct applicants may be keeping HO busy. Relax you've come so far....

Dont Wait and getting worried send them an email

Check your bank account money has been taken or not , if money is not out from your account than there could be an issue with the payment

Send you details and mobile number in case they want to contact you back

I applied he same time as you and also on edge waiting for them to take the fees, so I rang them yesterday and was advised that they have large backlog because of the rule change and if my fees still not been taken in 2 weeks time I should ring again.... they did confirm my application has been received and in Que... guess all we can do is hang in there

Its not at all strange ...

It has been just 10 days since your fees have been debited and defintely they take lot longer than 10 days to process, for some its taken months... So buddy, sit back and relax, it will come back when it has do, there is nothing much we can do about it really ...

Same they told me . We are in the same boat. Nothing we can do except to wait.

I think the right question is to ask

Visa/Immigration officer is allocated for my application ?

Ayyubi72 · Post by **Ayyubi72** » Mon Oct 21, 2013 7:39 pm

I think there is no point being so impatient. From current timelines it appear that due to last minute rush there is upto 3 weeks delay in taking the payment. After payment has been taken it takes about a month for the approval.
