Hi Guys,

Is there any tread on the forum with EU Settlement Scheme application processing times?
It seems the processing time is currently well exceeding the time frame displayed on the HO website.
I've been waiting myself for over 3 months now and I don't consider my case as complex (EU citizen, 14 years in the UK, no criminal convictions).
I've submitted my application on the same day as my partner and she already received her decision over 6 weeks ago.
Perhaps someone here has a similar experience with waiting times?

Thanks,

As fas as I'm aware, there is no timeline topic for EU nationals, because their processing times are usually so quick compared to non-EU nationals, that a whole topic seems pointless (There is one for non-EU nationals).

Seems like a case for escalation with your MP.

Thanks kamoe for the great tip.

I've just sent the letter to my local MP. Will keep you posted about updates.

I can add my two pence into this. Applied for my daughter mid June 21 and still did not even get a COA.

I also thought we have a very straightforward case: she is EU, born in UK, parents both have pre-settled status. Called the resolution centre several times, they keep escalating and telling me “it’s normal waiting times”.

Ive been looking all over the web for such a thread, it would be very helpful, given where it is now, which is nowhere close to 5 days, and into realms of many months.

Given todays stats from the Home Office, still over 400k cases pending and only 20k backlog case reduction since June 30th, despite processing over 260k applications it seems they are standing still in terms of progress and dying under the weight of applications, including 100k late applications.

There is a facebook group if you search for EU settlement scheme with 20k members, its a mix of Family vs Regular applicants but theres clues to processing times within it.

But, speaking for myself, a timescales thread would be very helpful.

Interesting.

Well, by all means one of you can just go ahead and start a EU nationals processing times thread!
