Hi All

Just thought I'd contribute to this.

Applied: 10/4
Bio given: 25/4
Interview letter: 20/6
Interview: 20/7

Why is it taking them so long to make a decision after interview?
Has anybody who had an interview in June or July had an answer?

@ speshow


worst service ever !!


Their fees is increasing and in return really third class service.
They should have some standard while they have the best customer service in UK.

I pray everybody gets their visas .

Please do update.

Best of luck !

Hi everybody! any updates?

[Momi]

Most of the entrepreneurs got their initial visa in 2013 so probably home office have 1000's of applications to deal.
Very few people got visa in 2014 so things can change by then.
I know few people who got their extension but they never update on the forum.

Got the extension while in the same timeframe i.e. applying around spring time?
do you know whether they did it with or without the interview?

Thanks!

[Momi]

One of my good friend partner got his extension in June applied in 1st week of May without interview.
1 of my college fellow got extension last month applied in May without interview.
Most people don't update here because other members start asking too many questions and documents.

Most don't update here because they got what they wanted. Majority of the people on the forum are those who have problems and questions. Others are silent observers. That is the reason views on any topic are loads and comments are just a few.
Obviously there are exceptions namely zimba88.
In my personal opinion it's not fair but I guess that's life.

[Mrchaany]

Forget about those who don't updates their outcome but those who are updating 95% waiting from last three to four months

That's exactly what I was referring to those who are updating on the forum are the ones who have issues like not receiving an answer etc.
Those who have gained from the forum in any whatsoever way have a moral duty to help others and one help is by letting everyone know when the applied and what was the timeline and result.

Would be interesting to know what is the average wait time after interview...

I read about people who waited 9 months in total and over 2 months after interview... But those weren't applying in April...

Hello Guys

I made an application in last week of April'16, Interview given on first week of Aug'16 and still waiting its been nearly 4 months and its look like they are holding all the applicants same as initial application in 2012-13.

Now only just wait and watch.

Good Luck to everyone

[ant123]

I there a "maximum" wait time? I heard something can be done if no response received in 6 month?

Not really, however if its been over 6 months you can call them to get an update but they are usually very ambiguous. The best thing to do is be patient and wait to hear from them.
