Although Home Office is famous for being slow with making a decision, it is quite strange that our case was decided at least 3 weeks ago and we have not received the decision yet.

According to the Home Office website: >>> If you don't receive your decision within 10 working days, you can phone us and we will look into this for you.<<<
Called them and they simply said: “wait until the 6 months period is over”
Why would you ask people to call you if you can’t even check a case that is decided. Poor service as usual …
