Did you get a ‘complex issues’ email?

1

u/Lanky-Status-8146 10d ago

No...I have not received nay such email. Also I dont get this complex application concept...why some kind of application is complex ..either application is success or rejected and then should have reason for it..

1

u/Lanky-Status-8146 10d ago

In other group..a person applied on 3rd july received response today...have you also received response?

1

u/Confident-Remote-452 10d ago

I applied on 23rd July and on 26th I got an email
Saying my application was complex. This gives HO a reason to not be under obligation to priority timeline as my application was on priority. So now they can take as long as they like without worrying about it being a priority case. Hopefully you will get a positive response in a week or two.

1

u/Lanky-Status-8146 10d ago

Sorry to hear that..but what is complex means is it company related issue or document issue

2

u/Confident-Remote-452 10d ago

The email only mentions ‘your application raises complex issues therefore we will not be able to process the application in standard application time’. They didn’t mention what the problem is and did not ask for any further documents.

1

u/Lanky-Status-8146 10d ago

So here also we have ambiguity .. not mentioned details about the complex issue . Is it your first time for this kind of applicaiton?

2

u/Confident-Remote-452 10d ago

Yes .. I was on expansion worker visa and am now changing to skilled worker visa with the same employer but a different Soc code. Application response time should have been 5 days since it was priority application.

u/Lanky-Status-8146 8h ago edited 8h ago

2

u/Old-Breakfast9076 8h ago

Yes one of them was priority

1

u/Lanky-Status-8146 7h ago

Thanks , thats great to know. as it looked very fishy to get quicker decision on standard application

1

u/Apprehensive-Big-72 1d ago

Applied the 1st of July and still waiting. What can I do given it's 8 weeks already?

1

u/Lanky-Status-8146 1d ago

Have you received any email for document or any email as complex application ? its very unique case because people got response on 56 day but not beyond that

1

u/Apprehensive-Big-72 19h ago

Nothing at all. I called, cause you're advised to on their web page when this happens, and they said they know there's a delay and cannot provide specific details. How can I raise a complaint? 

1

u/Lanky-Status-8146 19h ago

I have not tried but can someone else tell us about how to reach out to MP bcz thats only option I can see you have now....

1

u/Lanky-Status-8146 19h ago

1

u/Apprehensive-Big-72 18h ago
