Hi All,

Sharing my timeline.

Application received by HO: 20.06.2016
Fees deducted and Bio enrolled around: 26.06.2016
Interview: 09.09.2016
Visa/passport all received back: 20.03.2017

Overall 9 months. Had to contact MP as it was taking too long, not sure if this had an effect but visa received 2 week after contacting the MP. But it has also been 9 months...

Good luck everyone!
