I applied in August and got approval letter along with documents yesterday,still waiting for the BRP.
My exact time line is as follows:
Application sent by special delivery: 9/08/16
Biometric done: 17/08/16
After that no reply,I called once or twice to customer service and standard reply 'application in process'.
On 19/12/16 I received a letter that your application is complicated and we will invite you for interview.However I received an email and my interview was conducted in mid Jan,17 at battleship building London.
I waited 6 weeks after interview then I contacted my MP & she contacted UKVI about the status of application.
Yesterday I received the decision and MP letter reply from UKVI that the application took extra time due to complex nature of business.
My application was simple and straightforward.I only submitted required documents.
There are only 2 investment transactions,two employees(not on minimum wages) and accountancy practice business(accredition available and sent with application).
My advice to those waiting for decision stay positive and focus on work!
