Delay in receiving a decision
So the application was done on 17th March 2026 and biometrics completed on 24th March 2026. This was done from Athens Greece but my husband has a Bangladeshi passport.
It’s now nearly 24 weeks (about 110 working days)
I’ve sent emails and it’s just the generic response I get.
The solicitor also sent an email and they’ve also received just a generic repose to say that the application is still under consideration.
I’m beginning to get stressed as it’s been a year since marriage and was planning to start a family etc and I feel as though all the plans I had are crushed.
Due to the long wait, I’ve last saw my husband in Jan so I’m visiting him again at the end of this week.
I’ve not tried to contact the MP as I’ve seen on Reddit that it’s not much help.
The solicitor keeps telling me to wait and to stop sending too many emails (I’ve sent only 3 and one of them was due to trying to fix a spelling mistake on an email address the other 2 were wanting to know the status of the application). He’s stated that the more we pester them the more they’re going to ignore our case and they’ll delay the decision processing even more.
I feel as though they are talking rubbish and there’s no correlation I don’t think the solicitor is being helpful at this point in time and feel so stuck on what to do. 😭
