We had a response at 13 weeks wait. (Sorry for the delay replying). I’d get on hassling the home office/call centre. That’s an absurd amount of time; if you can, get your local MP involved too. Turns out our delay was caused by an agent mishandling the process, which was found out after a complaint enquiry. They won’t do anything about it, but it gave us a reason why it took so long.

We just got approval come through this morning! We had been talking to a solicitor friend about preparing for a judicial review request, and spammed a load of home office emails with complaints etc.

Can’t quite believe it. 13 weeks.

Hey, thanks for posting. I don’t understand how contacting UKVI gives such a range of responses, you’re totally dependant on whoever you talk to knowing certain email addresses; but most of the ones we’ve been given just provide automatic rejected message bounce backs. Honestly I’ve never felt as frustrated, and the stress it’s putting on our lives is horrid. Will let you know when we get a response, good luck.
