How can I tell authorities that this all is super stressful. waiting waiting waiting. no timeline.
I have tried reaching out to MP and the Deputy Minister of Immigration. I personally met my MP on a Zoom meeting and spoke to someone from Deputy Minister's office and they said they can't do anything and I just need to wait. They said they understand but I am not alone and need to wait for the process to complete which they can't promise how long will take given their favorite excuse "COVID". My application was received July 23, 2020 and was transferred to NDVO on June 24, 2021. No update after that and web form enquires are going unanswered.

Your file has only recently gone over the estimated time period for processing before covid. Given that the normal time period is one year and covid is an actual thing causing delays, their responses are not unreasonable.

It's understandable that you don't like it and it's frustrating, of course. You've expressed that to your MP - doesn't mean every request gets satisfaction. Hang in there.

Not sure which visa office, but assume it's in Warsaw (applicant is from Russia). We requested GMCS notes over 30 business days ago and have yet to receive them.

Application arrived July 7, 2020.
AOR 1 December 12, 2020.
Sponsor Approval January 12, 2021
Medical Request January 12, 2021
Medical Passed February 7, 2021
Pre-arrival services invitation, March 3, 2021

Nothing since then. ECAS says Application Received (since December it has said that). Nothing in GCKey other than "if we require more information we will contact you"
We thought (and were hoping) that getting the pre-arrival services invitation meant we were close to the end. Apparently that was not the case.

Stay strong everyone. I know how incredibly frustrating this whole thing is.

Anyone with experience sending copr documents off to London VFS? Specifically wondering about paying the passport transmission fee, says it has to be done online and they only provide an IBAN which my bank wants to charge me £9 to do.
