Update From TN/UKVI

Hello, good day everyone!

I received this acknowledgement email, hoping for the best. Please any idea on what to expect? Lolz

"Dear Jim

Ref: 1212-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX/URN2025TNXXXX

Thank you for your application for Global Talent (Exceptional Talent).

Your application has been referred to Tech Nation. Please allow 8 weeks for their consideration.

We will contact you when a decision has been made.

If you need to contact us, please ensure you populate the subject line of your email including the application reference number, the URN and your name to ensure a prompt response (as per our subject line).

Please note, your decision letter will be sent from a central email address and may go into your junk/spam folder. This has been a particular issue with gmail accounts. Please ensure you check your email folders on a regular basis to ensure successful receipt of your decision. If you have not received your decision within the above timescale please do not hesitate to contact us.

Submitting a valid endorsement application does not mean you hold entry clearance to come to the United Kingdom or leave to remain in the United Kingdom.

If your current leave is about to expire you must either make plans to leave the United Kingdom or submit a leave application, Global Talent Stage 2 or another route, in order to extend your leave. This will prolong your leave until the Home Office makes a decision on your endorsement.

Please note that Tech Nation will be closed for the holiday period from Wednesday 24 December 2025 and do not open again until Friday 2 January 2026. This means no applications will be assessed and no decisions will be returned between 24 December 2025 and 2 January 2026.

Kind Regards"

What is unclear here?

This is an acknowledgement of your application, there’s an 8 week timeline along with an additional holiday notification. You need to wait for the outcome.

Exactly. I’m counting on days!

@Jim I can relate to your feeling. Just stay hopeful, and at the same time prepare yourself for the outcomes. It doesn’t mean expecting the worst, just taking care of yourself. As the saying goes, hope for the best, prepare for the rest.

All the best
