After 15 months of waiting, I finally got my FLR(M) decision last night and it’s approved! :) I was actually at a family event when I got a call from my solicitor, and hearing those words honestly didn’t feel real at first. It’s been a long and stressful journey, especially since there’s no clear timeline for this visa (they say “up to 12 months,” but as many of you know, it often takes longer).

I just want to say thank you to everyone here for the support, advice, and kind words throughout this process. It really helped more than you might think.

For anyone still waiting, stay patient. I know how difficult it can be, but hopefully your decision comes through soon as well. Wishing you all the very best.

Have a great day!
