[QUOTE="Abbie Whitlock, post: 225523, member: 42112"] Hey! Whilst I'm not 100% sure on the general timelines for HL, I would say that two months is definitely on the longer side - although this could be due to them handling the vacation scheme applications first. If I were in your position, I'd be inclined to send a brief and polite email just to double-check the status of your application. I'd keep it very simple, for example: "[I]I'm writing to kindly check on the status of my Direct TC application submitted on [date]. I completely appreciate the high volume of applications, particularly with the vacation scheme applications as well, but I just wanted to confirm whether there are any updates or anything further required from my side[/I]". I'd say it's totally normal to send something like this, and it might help flag if anything has been missed. Hopefully you hear back soon! :) [/QUOTE]
