Yes - we had to select the London office as the closest to us so I'm assuming that is where it went through! We are based in the republic of ireland though

You get a year from the visa being approved, so we have until March 2021

Not sure how they are processing but we just got approval for 309/100 in 8 weeks from lodgement to the approval! Fingers crossed for all still waiting! Lodged Jan 2020 approval today!

Just posted below and ours took 8 weeks! So unexpected and some movement happening it seems!

Hi all Have been watching but not participating and wanted to update you all on our extremely QUICK approval! My husband is Irish, I am Australian and we have been together 7 years, married for 6 months and have a baby on the way. Visa lodged: 17th Jan 2020 RFI: 12th Feb 2020 Provided RFI: 9th Mar 2020 309/100 Visas Granted: 12th Mar 2020 8 weeks from start to finish!!! Fully front loaded, the RFI related to police checks for my husband as his name had changed (dropped his middle name) and a statement with regards to countries lived in over the past 10 years (I think we gave too much information on our travel over Europe). We were expecting a long wait but can now plan our exit from Ireland much more comfortably Best of luck to all who are waiting!
