@staa99 did you apply from inside the UK? could you share your proforma if possible
i’ve applied in early feb. got referred to TN on 12th Feb. Any Feb applicants?
same february, applied 15th, referred 19th.
looking towards March for response.
Who is still waiting who was referred in January? I was referred 01th Feb
Referred the 21st Jan from outside UK, still waiting (and getting super anxious).
@kontrol are you applying from inside the UK?
I don’t think inside/outside is important for Stage 1. It should be important for Stage 2.
Hi everyone,
Kind reminder that when someone shares their endorsement feedback, we should first acknowledge them — whether with congratulations or empathy — before asking follow up questions.
No one is obligated to share their outcome, and we should appreciate the vulnerability it takes to do so. Creating a supportive atmosphere will encourage more people to share.

Hi everyone. I got my decision today. I did not get endorsed. I applied on Dec 23rd, got referred on the 4th of Jan. I am confused however because I didn’t receive a proforma. The email from Home Office said it would come in a separate email, but it has not come yet and it’s been over 12 hours. When does the proforma normally come in after you get the rejection email?
Hi @edison
So sorry about the feedback .
I think you should email/call them. I recently heard of a case where someone got negative feedback via email but the proforma that was later sent was positive and home office eventually sent another email with positive feedback .
Wishing you all the best !

oh… I did email them, but do you know the best number to call them?
Hi @edison , I dont know any specific number . You can call the ‘generic home office number’. They can redirect you to the right team or escalate to the right team. Goodluck!
I have applied in end of Jan and got referred to TN on 13 Feb.
