EEA PR application - how long for COA?

Hello all,

I lodged my EEA PR application in late-September and got the biometrics done by 13 Sep.

I noticed on the timelines thread that most people who submitted their biometrics received their COAs in a week to two. I have been waiting 3 weeks now.

How long does it usually take for applicants to be sent their COAs?

Was wondering if I should write to them and enquire.

Thanks,
Hari

Hi Hari,

It usually takes 3 weeks but I have seen some applicants who waited for 6 to 8 weeks.

Good Luck,

Alps
