Stage 1 waiting times?

I understand, just consider it like a visa application where every application/applicant is different. Some might get result earlier and some might later. But everyone will get it within 8 weeks. Fingers crossed for you.

@kundan_kanan @pmcallis88 Just a small update. I’ve messaged the Home office last night to see if my application is through and being assessed. They have kindly messaged this morning saying it is still with the TN assessor. I’ve noticed that a few minutes before the email, I had the very first edit on TN portal.


So if anyone is reading this thread much later - I don’t know my result yet, but just for the record, there are cases that you don’t get any edit until the beginning of week 6.

I have been rejected. Not going to appeal it. As I have said in my post earlier, I am happy where I am but still gave it a try. All it tells me is the incompetence of tech nation to evaluate and UK to not get entrepreneurs to contribute.
Good luck to all of you.

Congratulations!

Looks like your usage of reference letter as supporting evidence for OCs worked!

Thanks! Yes, it did, but I think it helped that all my reference letters were tied to other pieces of evidence.

Is this for exception promise? Keep us updated🤞

Is this for exceptional promise? Keep us updated

Just submitted. Fingers crossed

Submitted application on 20th May.

As of today 14th June no decision. Last edit on 3rd June.

Applied under exceptional talent business route.

Is it normal to have such delay as most people get decision in 3 weeks?

Also, is it more likely to get an approval within 3 weeks than if it takes longer? Please advise.
