Hi,
My wife's case was decided in almost 3.5 months, after a month of my approval. I applied on 12 August 2012 and wife on 11th Feb 2013. My ILR was approved on 1st May 2013 and my wife's FLR(M) was approved on 30th May 2013. As soon as I got my ILR we sent photocopy of my ILR Biometric card and the letter to the address from which my wife received Biometric invitation.
A friend of mine had his ILR approved on same day as mine and her wife's FLR(M) decided same day as my wife, but sadly it was rejected due to English language certificate. It took around 3 months as well.
Based on my experience I think six months is not the period for FLR(m), instead they process soon after main applicant's ILR is approved/decided.
If you have not sent your ILR Biometric card for your wife's application then I would suggest you do it as soon as possible.
Hopefully it will be approved by the end of next week

Take care,
Shad.

Please do advise me how to deal and when to expect the decision on flr(m).
If its late did you guys chased it up or waited until it came.
I applied ILR on 9 th jan 2013 and got approval on 13 th june
wife flr(m) applied on 26/1/13 and still waiting.
You should give it 6 months until you start chasing.
So that means flr(m) posted on 26/1/13, it will become 6 months on and after 26/7/13, and only 23 days more for 6 months.
