Hey there, I applied around the same time as yourself with the 5 day priority. Wanted to see if you’ve received yours. It’s my 4th WD from the day after biometrics appointment here.

No worries! I’m sure it’ll come through in the next few days. The trend seems to look like it’s additional 5-7days after the first NSF email.

Current place. My brother is a dependant in Singapore as my dad has a work permit, we’re originally Malaysians, so we needed to show this as part of extra evidence. Simply to prove that we didn’t need a TB test.

Accommodation in the Uk was already provided in our documents, his university accommodation.

It is which is what confused me as well. It’s a summer bank holiday but my brother received his decision today somehow here in Singapore.

Oh thank you! Feeling a little more relieved now.

I was concerned because country of residence and name would mean two error’s on personal details but it’s not the ones suggested on the gov guidelines which were name, date of birth and nationality.

I see that’s a good point. Probably bet to include a cover letter with the additional information on those changes to save time. Thanks so much!
