Just a question regarding timelines

Just a question regarding timelines, How long does it take for UKVI to send receipt of application after attending the TLS contact biometrics appointment? I have attended the biometrics appointment in TLSContact ( Leeds) on 23-01-2025. The biometrics confirmation email said "UKVI will confirm receipt of your application." but I have not received any acknowledgement of the application yet.Also in UKVI site, when I login, it is still showing "Book Appointment" which gives the feeling that they have not acknowledged that I have attended biometrics. Could someone shed some light on how long it took for UKVI to send the receipt of application ( not approval - just some email confirmation that they have received application )

Please don't post questions in the TIMELINES ONLY topic - it is only for timelines!
Carry on here.

Often emails are not received .... your next communication will be your decision email.
There are also no progress updates - UKVI advise that processing time is 6 months, often much shorter, sometime longer.

UKVI don't send acknowledgements of having received applications. The hardest part starts now - that of waiting.
