Has anyone recently applied for GTV Stage 2 from within the UK using the standard (non-express) process? If so, when did you apply, and how long did it take to get your approval?
I completed my biometrics on the 3rd of April, and it’s now been three weeks with no update on my visa decision. Most of my friends who applied a few months ago got their approvals in under a week—some even within two days—so I’m starting to get worried.
UKVI sent me an email on the 4th of April stating that a decision would be made on or before the 21st of May. But based on how quickly others got theirs, I’m feeling anxious.
Is this delay normal? How long did it take for you to get your approval after doing biometrics?
