Applied for ILR Route : SET (O) - PBS Dependent Super Priority Service

UKVCAS staff confirmed if you apply during the weekend using the Priority it counts as you applied in the following Monday (which I found bullshit because if you pay for a priority service, you might as well get it).

Thanks for all your help and see you next year (new soap opera in my life now called citizenship).

Thank you for your Super Priority Application.

We have attempted to process your application within the 24-hour service standard, unfortunately it appears your application will not be processed within the 24-hour target.
