Thanks, Nigel, I am sure they are working hard I just find the inconsistency baffling. My wifes and sons sent same time and hers has been back here 2 weeks now.
Our timeline is this-
12th july- application submitted
12th july- ask someone to verify
12th july- verified
14th July – doc received
28th July- application processing
This is at Glasgow. Looking at the above there’s consistency in that it was 2 weeks between docs received and processing. We have bow been processing for 16 days. We are due to fly tomorrow, though have a credit note on flights so nothing actually booked. I have to be back in work by 25th August, so if it comes by 18th/19th August we can still get some sort of trip, however, my hopes are fading!
