Since then it is now routinely taking longer across the board for most applications affecting foreign national applicants and temporary residents alike.
Whilst it is still very early on in the life of the Enhancement Measures to discern any specific patterns, it is more than likely (it always is) that the disruption will settle down and case processing times will once again get back to normal.
But for now, just hang tight – the delay doesn’t automatically mean your application is in trouble – it just means ImmD themselves need to adjust to and accommodate the new policy measures – so best to sit tight and wait for your application to unfold during the [new] ‘normal’ course of events.
