No I have not received mine yet. And my CoS will expire on 17 Nov and my visa decision is not out yet what should I do ?
CoS and visa application these are the legal documents I have and more over on the process its on 9 weeks time span now. I am worried as well. Even after the ISC so what can I do ? Even my sponsor has mailed them about the home office so waiting on for the decision.

If you used a CoS to apply for a visa and still waiting for an outcome, the expiry date in that CoS is irrelevant, it's been already used!

No need to do anything but to wait for a decision.

Hi, just wondering if you have got your visa decision from Home Office yet? I am also on the same boat. I have submitted application of 18-Aug and they said there was an IT error. 12 Weeks gone and still waiting for the decision.

I had applied on the 17th of August for switching from one skilled worker permit to another (priority application). Received an email from the UKVI saying that they need further information regarding my employers’ requirement to pay Immigration Skill Charge.
My employer chased they to for a top-up link, after several back and forth email they finally sent the link on the 12th September. My employer paid on the same day.
I am now waiting for the outcome. It is the 7th working day now, I initially thought my application will be considered within 5 working days after paying the top-up.
For those who did not receive the top-up link. Ask your employer to email the business help desk (businesshelpdesk@homeoffice.gov.uk)
So did you finally received the visa now and how long did it took you?

The CoS and a successful application is what will grant the right to work. So officially you can not work and the forum does not encourage and will not facilitate what is against
the law.
Hoping you can lean on your employer and get this resolved for you as soon as possible.

Thank you for your application for permission to stay in the UK.

Although we would normally decide your application within fifteen working days from the date it was submitted, unfortunately this is not going to be possible in your case.

The UK Decision Making Centre is currently assessing the application submitted by the above named. We are unable to conclude the application currently as we require additional information/ action from your sponsor.

Please note, as we have requested additional information for us to conclude your application, it may not be possible to make a decision within service standard in this instance.

This is because your sponsor has not paid the Immigration Skills Charge, we have wrote to your sponsor separately to request this payment.

Kind Regards,

On 11th March 2024 I got one email from home office atlas that my visas decision will be late because home office waiting for immigration skill charge (ISC) but my employer issue my COS with all relevant fees and also paid ISC fees.

Hi,

I received the below email (not straight forward application ) email for my kids application (PBS Dependent Child). Anyone received same ? If yes, from your experience after how many days of biometric you received the visa decision ?

I heard they send this email when they are lot of backlog applications and hence they will miss the standard SLAs ? Please comment on any experiences around this.

I filed for visa outside UK (India) and biometric was done on 12-April-24.
Got the below NSF application email on 22-April.
It was Standard application (not priority)
Type : PBS Skilled worker Dependent child

Dear XXX,

Regarding Visa Application:ABCD12345

It could be any period from days to weeks. It is a waiting game
