With regard to the specific application about which the Deputy has enquired, this is a paper application which was received on 08 April 2025. The turnaround time for paper applications is 8 weeks. This application is within the turnaround time and has not yet reached its issue-by date.

I strongly encourage the Deputy to advise his constituents of the advantages of using the substantially more efficient online service, which is now used by more than 90% of applicants worldwide.
