The 15 days is extremely misleading and only applies to visit Visas. Priority means that your application will be considered ahead of other applications received in the same month. If you want a realistic timeline for priority, it is within 60 days and typically between 40 and 45 working days. Also, just a polite note on etiquette, if you wish to ask a question, you should start your own thread and not use somebody elses.

Yes, unfortunately it says "we aim" and not "we will". Completely misleading and ambiguous. I've just completed 42 working days today on priority application. There is not one person on this site that I'm aware of who has had a priority application completed recently in less than 37 days.

Hi,

I just checked visa processing times om :

https://visa-processingtimes.homeoffice ... settlement

It says can take upto 60 working days. I would therefore recommend you wait for atleast 20 working days before trying to escalate the case.

I have been reading on the forum with regards to other countries. It does appear even those that pay priority still are waiting despite paying. Some have been cleared though and some have also been told it depends on individual cases in terms of simple or complexity.
