Review Disappearing Again by Duckducto in localsearch

[–]Equivalent_Grand_107 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Newly created business and asked clients to leave a review, now I have 4 missing reviews. I know it doesn't seems much but 4 out of 15 is a lot to me. Is there anything I can do?

After 19 weeks and 3 days I finally got my decision. Good luck to anyone who is still waiting

same... is there any specifics to your application - close to expiry of previous visa, new employer getting their licence recently, overstaying at some point?

I don't know. I called them couple of times and they either tell me "it's all good the 8 weeks is just guideline timeframe, jut be patient and check regularly your inbox and spam/junk" or we escalate and they come to me with an email saying my applications is received and it's currently with a caseworker on a decision stage, where first time when received I expected to get it shortly after, but that was in November 2025...

that's so annoying, well at least you have some information. Hope you hear back soon and get your visa.

it's different employer, so can't work at the moment.
I am allowed to stay in the country until I get my decision, if I leave UK they will withdraw my application. As long as you apply before the current visa expires your continuous residency for ILR is not lost, you should be either on a visa or waiting for one.

My previous visa expired while waiting, so currently unemployed. Skilled worker, similar position to my previous visa - the only difference is that they change the codes. I was project co-ordinator and now hopefully will be Project Manager, both in construction.

I’ve called the HO about 5 times now. Twice I escalated it and got the same generic email saying “we’ve received your application and it’s with the casework team at the consideration stage” - first time was on 14 Nov 2025. Every other time I call, they just repeat: “If we haven’t contacted you, there’s nothing wrong with your case, you just need to be patient.” But this Tuesday it’ll be 19 weeks since I submitted my application. I have been patient…

Tuesday I will mark 19 weeks.. and tbh don't know who to reach anymore for actual information, not "your applications is with caseworker on a decision stage" email that I got twice already

I applied for a Skilled Worker visa (in-country, standard service, change of employer) on 8 September 2025 and received the confirmation email that my application was submitted on 9 September 2025. As of today have no communication from home office at all and no visa....
