SWV Extension Inside UK Application Date Issue
Hi everyone, I’m hoping someone can help me understand something I noticed on my UKVI/eVisa account.
I submitted my Skilled Worker visa extension application on 29 June 2026 and received an email from UKVI confirming that they had received my application on 30th June. However, when I just checked my UKVI account, I noticed that under my application it now shows as application date 10 August 2026. This has confused me because I definitely submitted the application on 29 June, and I have the confirmation/email from around that time.
Does anyone know what this “Application date” on the UKVI/eVisa account actually represents?
Could it mean that my application was only entered into the system or started being processed on 10 August, or is this simply an account/system date that can be different from the actual application submission date?
