My solicitor wrote to home office. And we wrote our MP and received an email from him that he asked for follow up from home office. My biggest worry is I haven't received delay email like the others Thanks all

Been an absolute nightmare with the lack of information even when calling UKVI customer centre. There is no way of knowing anything...hoping I am almost there. But you just never know!
