Durham is still taking forever for foreign applications. Adult renewal (old one expired)

Submitted end of June
Officially received forms 3 weeks later, entered Processing right away

No updates since then. I have escalated via Twitter multiple times. Crickets.

I suspect they are not prioritizing foreign applications. Domestic applications are turned around in a week or 2, foreign applications go to the bottom of the pile.

This is a horrible, immensely frustrating experience. I understand it’s slow. But it’s insane that some people are getting them from Durham in 1 week, while others are waiting 1-3 months. First in, first out. It’s not hard to do this fairly.

I have now been waiting 3 weeks for my appliance/documents to be received in Durham (sent from USA)

Twitter DM said that I should wait at least a month total for docs to even be received.

Honestly it appears they’ve given up processing foreign-received applications in favor of prioritizing domestic received applications – which seem to be moving fast enough now.

Has ANYONE who applied to Durham from USA had any progress or still “waiting to receive documents” (Yes, I am sure they’ve had my docs for past 3 weeks, signed for by B HUMBLE)
