I had submitted visa application for extension along with one dependent application on 12.11.2012. I did received an acknowledgement letter within a week but till date haven't received my bio-metric letter. I am really worried now

. I am just wondering that did anyone applied for visa during the same time frame and have they received their visa or not.

Normally I wouldn't mind waiting for the documents patiently but I got invited to perform a solo concert in a very prestigious venue in helsinki on the 15th of february. I don't want to miss it and the opportunity is rare. I am very depressed at the moment. Also according to the UKBA 'helpline', being a dual passport holder doesn't help.

With my experience, the backlog is the problem. Once they get to look at your application, the process is actually pretty fast.
