Finally you can rest in ease!
Could I please ask how your hearing went?

We have our hearing coming up in 2 weeks and to be honest i'm really scared for some reason haha.
I've never been to a court and don't know what to expect.

Did you and your partner go into the hearing together?
Did your barrister do all the talking?
Did the judge ask you any questions?
Were they easy questions?

Sorry if thats too much but would really appreciate any info you can give little or small as it would help a ton!

Thank you and congratulations once again!

Thank you so much.

Oh and I was reading your case,,,
The judge probably allowed your decision but home office may have appealed against it. Thats why its taken longer.

You can contact the court and ask them the status, they will be able to tell you

Phoned them last Monday they said judge haven't made a decision yet because of backlogs.they can't put a time.so it's just a waiting game.did the same on the court day.was at 10am but went in at 3.45.it's jus it's been such a long journey and with the outcome of how my court went.my barrister said its a positive feedback.

6 months isn't too long. I have waited for 8 months for a simple private life case where they have to decide if I have lived half of my life in the UK and still got no reply. I have seen people here waiting for 12 to 16 months. I don't know if contacting them helps as I have contacted them last month.

[oluwatoyin77]

people waiting for 12months is out of the way, the standard time is between 6 to 9months,maybe your case is out of hand or you dont chase it up ,if you have a straightforward case I dont see any reason why an application will take that long,your reply is not encouraging, u replied has a lawyer who dont know what he or she's doing as a lawyer

[Gyinka1]

Applied July 2016 and solicitor just confirm my approve letter today over 2 yrs,so guy all case are different and mine is extension but I still thanks at the end

Wow, a big congratulations to you. We applied same day, though I submitted mine by post on the 27th April 2018 with a British child and a British partner. I called my solicitor today and he said there has been no update about my application yet. Am sincerely happy for you.

Hi,
Have you heard anything from HO i have applied on 17th may . just wanted to check if they are processing applications fast in 2018

[Sk10]

I did create my own post but did not get much response to it so i am posting here the same.
I need advice from respected members of this group.
We have applied in Oct 17 as a family on the basis of our child who turned 7 in sep 17. We have our biometric in following month. In feb 18 Home office sent two forms back with missing signature which we have signed and sent back within a week. Since then we have not heard anything from Home office. We have contacted our local MP four weeks ago who requested home office to provide the reason of delay and prompt action on the case. Home office did not reply to MP yet. But my Solicitor received a letter from home office on 7th Aug to provide the proof of residence of the child to confirm that we are living with child on the same address and they did say in the letter that they are aiming to take prompt action on the case once the information is provided. We have sent letter from gp, school reports and utility bills yesterday by recorded delivery.
I just want to ask if is it a positive attitude of home office that they taking long and asked for this kind of information. Or they are just delaying purposely and going to refuse. Thanks in advance
