Shibly, are there any news on your side? We applied for appeal in August and waiting for over 9 months now. Not sure if we should try to chase the tribunal or ask the council? Or do we just continue waiting? Anyone, please share your experience?

Hi all,
I am really struggling to find information on EEA appeal timeline. We have submitted my mum's appeal in august 2016 and still no news on the hearing date. Is anyone else in the same situation? What can i do to speed this process up (if anything)?
Hi all, I have received a refusal in July 2016 and submitted for appeal within 2 weeks (early August). Looking at your timelines I don't think my hearing date will be before August 2017 and am very worried that Brexit may impact my case (as they plan to trigger Article 50 in March). I wonder if I am...

Also, did anyone travel in / out UK on a tourist visa whilst the RC application was under consideration?
