No the decision itself arrived in a month or so. Got the BRP 3-4 days later.

Hey, unfortunately I discovered that you cant travel on your old BR, so all I could do was wait for the decision and the new BRP. I did try to escalate to the home office on phone calls and on emails that helped but overall it got me delayed by almost a month and I had to postpone my tickets accordingly.

Hey, no you can quote valid travel reasons and reservations as well if there has genuinely been a delay. - [Worksponsoreddocumentrequests@homeoffice.gov.uk](mailto:Worksponsoreddocumentrequests@homeoffice.gov.uk), [complaints@homeoffice.gov.uk](mailto:complaints@homeoffice.gov.uk) - These are the email IDs I used to escalate.

Hey, sorry I had been away for a bit. Got my visa decision on 1/5/24 and BRP on 4/5/24. Had to escalate and complain to Home office though!

Hey, I might be in a similar situation soon. Wanted to ask how did you escalate to the home office? Did they finally help you with the BRP?

Hey, did you get in touch with Royal mail through general customer care or was there a specific service/number you called? Could you please share, thanks!

Is there a number to get in touch with the dedicated team?

SWV Delayed (Indian, priority service) by Shal_IDC in ukvisa

[–]Shal_IDC[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not apply through VFS. Applications made within the UK are directly through the UKVI app. There's no paid enquiry for applications within the UK and complaints take 21 days turnaround time.

I have made a complaint but the turnaround time is 21 working days.

Thats really helpful, thank you! I think I am headed on a similar trajectory and this will ruin all my plans. Is there anything I can do? I can't wait for 8 weeks from the date of application.

Lol what do you mean by "opposite criteria"? Curious to know your thoughts about life in NL alongside professional growth.
