Settled Status: Sent passport for verification, still waiting

Hi! How long did you wait for your settled status + sending you passport? And how long did it take to get your passport back?

I’m from an EU country and applied for settled status online on my laptop, without scanning my passport on my phone. They asked me to send my passport for verification and said they would send me a confirmation email when they receive it. I did that more than a week ago, but they still haven’t confirmed receipt of my passport or verified my details. It was a first class post.

How long did it take for you? I feel a bit lost because other people with the same case like me got a response in 3–4 days, and I’m still waiting just for my EU passport verification.
