It still shows evidence but we called them severally and they said they are just waiting for home office check but its taking so long

Hi Vikit, did they advise when the Home Office check was submitted? The estimated timescale for this is 40 working days at present, however this is with an external agency, so this will be based on their own their own processing times. Thanks, Stephen.

I am just worried because I have applied to uni this year as well and I don't know if they will pay my tuition since they haven't responded to my sisters in months now
