Hi everyone
I have recently applied for the Set LR application using the super priority method.
My appointment with UKVCAS was on 15th August 2022 @ 10.30 am where I gave the Biometrics.
I received a text that night about 7pm notifying me that they have received the application and documents.
However I haven't heard anything back from them since and it's been over 48 hours nearly.
I checked spam/junk but I have no communication from anyone regarding this application.
Anything I can do to chase up?
Regards
Mo

Nothing you can do. You have to wait to hear back. Priority isn't guaranteed. For whatever reason, you need further scrutiny. It would come when it comes.
No sin in failing, you just have to try and try again!

Thanks for the response. Just thinking when It does eventually come through can I ask for a refund as they haven't even communicated saying it is not possible to process within the time frame as I have read on other posts. In the past I got responses from them saying it will take longer so to bear with them but this time it's been 2 days and I haven't received or heard anything from them.

No sin in asking. If you would get it, is another topic for a different discussion. Nothing ventured nothing gained.

This is being asked a lot on the forum.
The priority visa service is not a guaranteed service. Your application will take longer if the caseworker cannot make a decision quickly or if they need more evidence. There may be checks and verifications required that can take longer. They will come back to you when they are done. No one can tell you when or how or why. Please wait to hear back
You
may be eligible for a refund on your priority fees.
