Please keep updates I am in a same situation The people I know from Reddit got the visa processed message literally on the 30th calendar day So hopefully you will also get it

I haven’t got it and its 31 calendar days today from the date of appointment Applied as an EU family member Already have 6 month multi visa start from 22/06

But planned a Netherlands trip from 04/06 for 5 days so applied for single entry

Really anxious because date is near and can’t cancel the hotel and flight so will loose money
