I will give a detailed post in a while, because I am still digesting this news!!

Attempt 1 -

5 edits and i received rejection in all 3 criterias and TN rejected all my LOR’s and it was discouraging. I gave up on the visa completely.
I came back to it after a month and repurposed everything.

Attempt 2 -

Applied 20 July - Endorsed Today.

Amazing, happy for you.

Was this Promise or Talent?

Can you also please provide details around timelines and edits you had this time?

2281

I received my endorsement today after appealing the initial rejection. I was originally rejected on all criteria, but after the appeal, I was granted the endorsement for Exceptional Talent.

I would like to thank all the amazing and kind people who offered their support.

FYI: I didn’t check ‘Edits’ because I was not expecting a positive response after being rejected on all criteria.

Lastly, I just want to say don’t give up and always appeal

Edits dont mean much honestly.

Hi everyone,
I just tried to check my last edit and noticed that the website no longer displays my application files in view mode, and I’m unable to download them. I suspect this might be related to the new submission method introduced on August 4th. Has anyone else experienced the same issue?

Hello,

I have applied on the 2nd of August. How do I track my application. They had taken the tech nation portal down. Home office doesn’t share any updates etc. How do I view the activity (Edits) on my application.

2291

Hi, Could you share how the revised plan was improved for approval on the second attempt. I have similar Situation. Thank you.

2292

You just wait for an outcome. No more stressing yourself with edits.

Hi
How , and where do you track your application ?

2296

I tracked on technation portal. However I received a decision on Thursdays 14th August 2025 even though it wasn’t endorsed.

2297

Sorry to hear about your non-endorse outcome. So if I understand correctly, you submitted the application on August 1st, got a total of three edits (last one on August 4th), and received the decision email on August 14th?

2298

Thank you for that! Very correct, I also noticed on the letter it showed the decision date was actually 4/8/25 even though I received it on the 14/08/25
