delay in tier 2 visa

Post by Akaolisa » Fri Mar 23, 2018 1:16 pm

Hello everyone
I applied for a tier 2 general visa along with dependants (wife and 2kids) from Nigeria. We went for biometrics on 2nd Feb. Got a mail from UKVI on 7th Feb saying that application has been recieved.
Since then I haven't heard from them or the VAC. I have called UKVI severally and even escalated my application twice (2nd time was last week friday)
Processing time for Nigeria online says 97% within 15 working days and 100% within 30 days(it also says that this is for all decisions made in february--but did not state when the applications were made)
Today is day 35 and till nothing from them. Please is this normal? What else should I do?

Have you contacted your sponsor to ask them to check or if they have been contacted for additional information?
