I got a reply by email yesterday that my CTD has been dispatched on the 23rd also called to confirm today and they said it was dispatched yesterday (25th) and gave me the tracking number. So I assume they worked on it as soon as i sent the complaint. I have been waiting since December 3rd 2012.
So a tip for you guys, if you have been waiting for more than 6 months, don't bother calling. Just send a complaint with all your details by fax and also by Email to their complaint email address. They take complaint seriously from what i gathered.
I wish you all goodluck
That's a good thing to know, Michael.U could you please give us the fax number and that email address?
thanks in advance

I contacted the UKBA under the Freedom of Information Act and asked them about the date of the currently processed application and they replied on 5th July 2013:
"At present for those applications dated before the 1 January 2013, we are processing those made in August 2012. For applications made after 1 January, we are dealing with those made in February 2013."
I applied on 15th December and it seems that I have to wait for another 5 months!!

hello guys
to be quite honest
i think its based on individual cases and their circumstances
some applications might need further review
some might not need indepth review at all
but those who are recieving CTD , some early and some extremely late, i think its because of that.
Anyway all chin up and hope fasting for all of you is going good Alhamdulillah
my 1st TD came in 2 months exact, hoping the renewal will too, so gonna wait till 12-15 of august and hoping In Sha Allah i receive my CTD
really hoping to travel soon
please if you guys have any updates, let us know, because in a way it gives us a little hope
thankyou

I applied in December 2012 so it'll be a while before i get it. Keep us updated on the status of your application, if they were processing August application last month then yours should be very soon (hopefully)

I was granted the first TD in 2008 within 3 week but the renewal one is more then 5 month taking and still waiting I don`t know what can I do in first of June this year our MP Call the home office to get information about processing. The lady from immigration department says we are processing the Feb 2013 application should your client receive in the next 15 to 20 days but even after 68 days nothing heard anything and just hopping.
best wishes

we are at the same boat, my friend, I called them, but mine is the 1st CTD, we should wait for 6 month, then write a complain letter, then they will just do what are supposed to do.

2 months is too early, at least you should expect waiting for it for 5 months...
