Delay referral to Royal Society

Hi everyone,

I applied to the Global Talent Visa endorsement (via peer review) on the 31st August and submitted my supporting documents.
I received the automated message that the documents had been received and that they would official acknowledge when the application had been processed and sent to the endorsement body.

But it’s been over a week and I still have received no official acknowledgment. Is anyone going through the same and this is just a general delay, or should I contact them to try to understand what’s going on ?

Thanks !

Hi,
No direct experience but a friend has applied and was told 8 weeks if you are inside the UK (she was) for some reason its less if your applying from outside.
Did you hear anything already?
:D

Sorry, I don’t come here often !
Yes, I got the acknowledgment email about 8 days after sending the documents, and then my endorsement 3 weeks later. I don’t think there is any difference whether you are inside or outside the UK when it comes to applying for the endorsement.
It does make a difference for Stage 2, which I am now waiting for, and have been waiting for almost three weeks now.
But thank you so much for telling me about your friend experience 😊
