Can someone explain the priority/non priority? Is it only certain countries that get the priority option? I am in US and at no point as there been an option for this. I would have gladly paid a lot for this to be treated as priority, even if it meant a few week difference!

To be honest it is too early. If you can hold out it is better to wait until day 60. Meanwhile you could send an email or phone, make sure you get reference numbers. Be aware a lot of the time the contact centre do not tell you much

The priority option means that that your application will be looked at before non priority cases. It does not mean it will be processed straightaway, your just further up the queue. From the stats the Home Office seem to be trying to process priority claims before 60 working days. I would be surprised that there was not a priority option for americans

22nd week completed (112 working day), I applied on 7th April 2017 escalated 3 times, MP has written letter 2 times, and I have called so many times, nothing so far. planning to contact Prime minister and Jeremy Corbyn. This is completely unacceptable treatment of British citizens, government has duty of care. we are being forced to live away from our partners due to Home office inefficiencies.
I suggest you all write to both of them two, only then our problem will be highlighted.

Believe me they might not even know this problem exist. please drop your email to them. No point keep expressing our concern on this blog.

You are right British citizen has no say or value in UK...really embarassing some family with kids out of school because of HO unhuman regulation and careless. They make difficult so that everyone get the message if you want to go away dont come back and if you want a partner look for it in UK only...so embarrassing
