I wouldnt worry too much Bev as I am sure u will have noticed that UKBA are in the news again si it seems they are under staffed and under resourced so timing issues are likely to get worse. What is so annoying is that we pay a lot of money for this service, its not out of public funds so I see no reason why they cant provide us with a fair and reasonable turnaround timescale for what is a fairly simple process for the majority of FLR applications.
