Hi all,
I applied for my visa on 8th June and completed my Biometric on 18th June. I have not heard back from HO yet. I was just just wondering if anyone on this forum who applied in june has received a decision/ interview call/ any form of communication from HO.
I am trying to figure out what is happening my application. I am switching from Tier1 Graduate Entrepreneur to Entrepreneur Visa. It would be great if June applicants could share their timelines. Thanks everyone.

You should probably get a Interview date very soon. Generally gap between the interview letter and interview date is couple of weeks.

It looks like they started to interview large majority if not everyone.

Hi guys,
Has any one received their visa post interview that took place in August or September? I am trying to figure out the timeline. I had my interview on the 5th Sept. I would really appreciate if you could share some information.
Thanks

Hi jenny.
Thanks for your reply. Just two quick questions. I'd really appreciate it.
Could you please tell me how many pages is your business plan (I'm worried mine is too short)?
Did you switch after your first year or after completing the full two years on Graduate Entrepreneur?
Many Many Thanks.
