  - 11 June 2026: Completed biometrics at VFS Mumbai.
  - 30 June 2026: Received an email stating that UKVI could not make a decision within the standard processing time.
  - 6 July 2026: Received a second delay email stating the application was still under consideration.
  - 13 July 2026: Received an invitation for a Student Credibility Interview.
  - 14 July 2026: Attended the credibility interview via Microsoft Teams (approximately 30 minutes).
  - 22 July 2026: Raised a paid enquiry. UKVI confirmed the application was under consideration and awaiting a decision.
  - 27 July 2026: Contacted the University of Surrey. They advised me to continue waiting as they cannot contact UKVI regarding individual applications.
  - 31 July 2026: Raised another paid enquiry. UKVI confirmed the application is awaiting a decision and noted they were unable to escalate the case due to the credibility interview.
  - 10 August 2026 to present: Still awaiting a decision. I have received no requests for additional documents, no final decision, and no eVisa.
