Has anyone recently experienced delays with an ILR Super Priority application?

I applied under the Global Talent route and attended my biometrics on 6 August morning. I paid for Super Priority, but it has now been more than a week and I havent received a decision or any email from UKVI explaining the delay or requesting further information.

I have already contacted UKVI and submitted a complaint, but I guess I have to wait like 20 working days to get a reply.

Has anyone else had a similar delay recently?

Hello!

I recently received my Global Talent visa through the UKRI endorsed funder route. Before that, I was on a Skilled Worker visa for close to four years.

I am now eligible to apply for ILR, but I came across this requirement in the guidance:

“GT 10.2. The applicant must have earned money in the UK during their last period of permission in the field in either:
(a) a field related to the subject matter of their prize if they were granted for their initial application using a prize listed in Appendix Global Talent: Prestigious Prizes; or
(b) the field in which they were previously endorsed in the Global Talent route if they were granted their initial application using an endorsement.”

I have only just started a new job and am currently in my first month. Would it be safe to apply once I receive my first salary and submit one payslip, along with a letter from my employer confirming that I have earned money in my field of expertise? Or would it be better to wait a few months and provide more payslips?

I am thinking of submitting the one payslip from my time on the Global Talent visa, together with a few payslips from when I was on the Skilled Worker visa.
Has anyone been in a similar situation or applied with only one recent payslip?

Thanks in advance!

Hello! Just wondering if anyone else is currently experiencing delays with their Stage 2 priority visa decision.

I applied for the Global Talent Visa (UKRI route). I submitted both Stage 1 and Stage 2 applications at the same time last month and gave my biometrics on 1 June (inside UK).

I received my Stage 1 endorsement last Tuesday, which was 3 weeks and 2 days after submitting my application. Since then, I’ve been waiting for my Stage 2 decision. I paid for the priority service (5 day), but I’m now at the end of the 7th working day (after endorsement letter email) and still haven’t heard anything from the Home Office.

Is this kind of delay normal at the moment? Has anyone else experienced something similar recently?
Also, is there anything I should do at this stage, or is it just a case of waiting?

Thank you in advance.
