Sent an email requesting application status update, this was the reply:

"Dear Parent

We aim to process all applications within 6 months from the date submitted. However, in certain circumstances this target is not possible. Following our assessment of your son’s case, unfortunately it appears your son’s application will not be processed within the 6 month target.

This is because it is taking longer than usual to process applications because of coronavirus (COVID-19). This will not affect the decision. We expect to make a decision on your son’s application as soon as possible, but we will write to you again if this is not going to be possible.

Yours sincerely
Home Office"
