FLR(FP) Application time

[Meelow]

Any contact email for flr FP application it’s 4 months we done our bio

Hi s786 according to gov website Flr fp standard guideline processing time has changed from 6 months to 12 months but theres no time limit, all depends on the complexity of the case and which route you applied under, im also similar waiting time i applied fee waiver march got accpeted august, applied for flr ,done bio and still waiting , i made a complaint and they just replied application is under consideration , I would suggest you complain using complaint email you can find online stating your concerns and stress your concerns to your local mp to contact the home offcie also on your behalf, unfortunately not much contact out there because if there was direct contact they will be piled in with emails and requests. its just a matter of a waiting game, only on very serious circumstances like a family death or medical reasons they will expedite the case quickly, this is a bit of the response i got when i made a complaint:

"It may be helpful if I explain that applications submitted on a 10-year partner, parent or private life route and also on a 5-year parent route are not currently subject to any service standards.

Our website was updated on 26 November 2024 to advise that applications on the above routes are now taking around 12 months to complete; some may take longer. Further details are available on our website at: Visa processing times: applications inside the UK - GOV.UK.

Applications are considered on their own merits, and we endeavour to consider them as quickly as possible. However, there may be circumstances which result in an extended delay in the application processing time.The timescale for making a decision is also dependent upon the nature and extent of our enquiries. Some of these enquiries are with other Government departments and external agencies to ensure that our statutory requirements have been satisfied. The extent and length of time taken to complete such enquiries varies according to the individual circumstance of each application.Because of these reasons we are unable to provide a timescale for completion, but please be assured that every endeavour is being made to conclude this application at the earliest opportunity.

Our threshold for expediting is only considered in the most serious life-threatening circumstances. We normally only accept a request to expedite an application ahead of others in situations such as where a customer needs to travel to attend a close relative’s funeral abroad, or to attend to a severely ill relative overseas who requires one-to-one care that cannot be provided by another individual. They are only granted in the most serious of cases."

so its kinda a joke that someone have to die or be seriously ill for them make a decision. so they can make a decision quick if they really wanted to but if you dont have a extreme reason they just take their time and chill out but good luck and i hope we all get a decision sooner.

@lostin the system have you heard from the home office yet. We are in the same ship.

Hi I would like to find out if anyone has been waiting over 12 months for extension flrp. Submitted my application in dec 2023. No fee waiver have written to Mp and always same reply. The HO can really frustrate individuals.

Hi Meelow, sorry to hear yours also taking time , the HO is a shambles, badly run, badly managed, huge back log, but whilst I have been waiting I seen many put in applications after me and get a result quicker so god knows what going on, and plus I been granted 2.5 years before a few times so I dunno what's going on with this last one maybe I just got a dearly beloved case worker lol i will contact my MP again this week , also write to the home office ,and I might even submit a PAP a pre action protocol , which ukvi have to respond in 15 days with reasons for delays and it might even make them decide quicker as the pap is letter threatening take them to court, i will request freedom of information act files coz it can show details about the case , so the battle still wages on , I have a Jamaican friend and a Asian guy both married got children been in UK 10 years and they also been waiting over a year for their application, they keep replying they still considering, I like to know what exactly are they bloody considering, they got all my details on the system , they granted me visas multiple times , it's an easy case , but one year on they still considering, it is mentally draining and affects family members aswell ,but if you get through this you can do anything in life coz nothing is worse than dealing with the home office.

I ll update definitely but hope you get your decisions soon fingers crossed. Did you receive any further email from home office if they accepted your expediting request?

[Meelow]

Home Office are really not understanding, I think a petition should be signed to look at applications within 6 months , no certainty. I have 4 children to look after facing eviction. Nothing has been done.

Hi. I didn't receive any reply from home office. I called them again today and they did follow up on my previous escalation.

They said I should here from them within 7 working days.

It's is so unfair. I have given all medical proof but they don't understand the pain we are going through.

Hopefully we will hear from them this week.
