First team member full paid off money which he put it into business through director loan. And last year accounts also shows only one director name and also all invested funds shows with one and only second director name now.
Does it make any problem for second member when he apply tier1E??

This nothing to do with 'processing time'.

Rather than tagging onto an unrelated topic to further confuse an already ragtag and jumbled topic, suggest ask own question in own topic.

This could take two to three weeks to arrive ! You need to stop panicking and WAIT to hear from HO

A timeline is where you share your timeline, not demanding updates or asking if someone else got a letter, etc.
These kind of posts add ZERO value here and do not add ANY value to your case either !
Also under Tier 1E route, WAITING TIMES SEEM TO BE SIGNIFICANTLY LONGER.
Your case is a separate application which will be decided on its own merits, expect long waiting times ! :!: :!:
