Hi everyone

I did my Biometrics on the 2nd of July(priority), yesterday(9th of July) was the 5th working days but I have not received any mail.

I tracked the application and it's still showing " application received by DMC"

Please has anyone experienced this before?
You'd have to relax, e go still come out. Some of us experienced the delay

So true .. . But this applies to stopping over in EU countries as UK don Brexit

This shouldn't apply to African or Middle Eastearn countries
Yes but most countries with cheaper flights fare are on the red list. So prepare to pay 1750pounds before leaving

Will one need a transit visa if you are taking Royal air moroc?
Air Maroc wouldn't but then it is not even affordable. British Airways rate is even better especially Abuja to Heathrow

Thanks for the great work here, I have really learnt a lot.

Please can one submit a statement period of 33days?
Also, hope it doesn’t matter if the statement period is different from the transaction period?

Thanks in advance for your response.
It doesnt really matter, my statement was from the 30th of April to 1st June.

This is so true, I think my blood pressure was high all through. So my application was standard and was due on the 25th of june (friday). I ended up getting my Visa after 6 extra days which was yesterday. Those six days was hell. So give them till today or monday.

I can imagine how you must be feeling and the thoughts going through your mind, take solace in the fact that even priority applicant are still waiting for collection mail, I believe the issue is with UKVI, they must have their plates full, this is unlike them not to keep to processing time, but be rest assured that we all will remember this day and time be thanks for how it turned out
I believe so

That’s the same thing I am experiencing.. I seriously wish I had done priority, I chose standard because I felt it was too early and no need to rush since collecting mail takes just 15 working days.. Now application still shows received by DMC since 7th of June.
To be honest, I don think taya
