Hi Sue, ours went in in the middle of December, at that time they were, according to my lady, taking 6 weeks to fingerprint and photo stage. Come 1st Jan (post Brexit) it has gone to 3months. I have been told that the office in Almeria are allowed 3 months once they receive your application. They are now taking the full three months! There was me getting all excited at the start of Feb, now waiting to see what the middle of March brings.
