Hi dear members and respectable moderator!
i would like your opinion and experience about email reply as under:
"Thank you for your e-mail. Your application is now with a
caseworker. You will receive our decision within 3 week.
Thank you."
However,please some body let me know how long it takes if the case has been allocated to a case worker.
i really appreciate your input and help as i am traveling 1st week of April.
many thanks in advance and your time
best regards,
Sam

If the email said three weeks once allocated then you've answered your own question.

When did you apply? Had it been more than 6 months now?

It's great to see people are sometimes getting non-generic answers. Please confirm if your timeline is related to your older post quoted and when the question/answer emails were transmitted in relation to your application date:

Applied beginning of November 2017

which means about 3.5 months ago.

[SAM143]

Hi all!
yes i applied 1st week of November 2017,and email nationality team on Sunday 25/02/18 and got replied on Tuesday 27/02/18 ,just after 2 days.
And today Wednesday 28/02/18 received letter for approval dated 20/02/18
Many thanks for your help and interpretation.
Good luck to everyone who are still waiting for approval

[ariskar]

I applied 23/10/2017, did biometrics late: 01/12/2017 (second letter) due to Royal mail non delivery of first letter, then mailed the FMT team twice in Dec. 2017 and in Feb 2018, with last response 06/02/2018.

I did get a generic answer on both occasions that it may take a while.

However, on 28/02/2018, I received my approval dated 19/02/2018.

I had emailed them again on 26/02/2018 enquiring about my application status, lets see what they say (after I already got my joint approval and ceremony invitation letter)

Good luck SAM, hopefully yours is on the way too. Royal Mail 2nd class took 9 days to deliver my letter in central London...

Update:
Despite the approval received and ceremony booked, the FMT team today 1/3 emailed me back that my case is with the caseworker and I will hear within 3 weeks.

It seems our experience is the same. Being with caseworker = decision already made

All the best to those waiting!

[silverchloride]

I wonder how they pick and choose who and when to reply... I've been emailing them since January and no response

My experience with 2nd class postman and HO 'love affair' is: 9 days for approval letter delivery, first biometric letter not delivered, second biometric letter 5 days.

Hopefully your decision will arrive soon.

Got the same answer before it was decided.

3 weeks (21 days) answer means they most likely have decided already.
