FLR(FP) Application time

[SuccessM2]

A friend of mine got her decision yesterday for her third renewal. It was Approved! She did fee waiver in October 2024 and fee waiver was granted about 10 days later. She submitted application same October and got her decision yesterday. I guess they kept to their 12 months waiting period. Hopefully people waiting for one year already will soon hear good news!

just thought to post good news here for anyone waiting.
I'm a birtish citizen who is married (and we have a british daughter) to an asylum seeker who's asylum claim was denied. We were desperate to get him status after a few horrible asylum solicitors.
We hired a very good solicitor for his flr fp. We sent a huge number of documents with the flr fp application(pictures, written statements, letters of recommendations, medical reports) explaining how he had established a life in the UK and how devastating it would be for our daughter and myself if he were to be removed.
The wait was the hardest part, so thought to write this to give some of you with complex cases some hope! HIS FLR FP HAS BEEN APPROVED.

flr fp submitted: February 12th 2025

Husband's flr fp approved September 11th 2025

Hello,

Can fee waiver application be discussed here?

If so, I wanted to ask if it's normal for a 2 months wait with no updates?

Thank you for your help!

@Vini Yes its normal not to get updates on fee waiver application. I applied through lawyer for fee waiver and there was no updates till the grant waiver email after 7 months. But that was 2024.

where did you message them any email id? Will be great help
