Mine is also a visitor visa renewal though. Biometrics was done at Abuja collection center on June 20, received at Sheffield July 3rd, then I tracked it today on the home office website and noticed it was decided since July 6 and I have just received an email from TLScontact as well. That's a total of 12 working days.

Hello @cookies, Please did you pay for priority? It took too long to get to UKVI but was promptly attended to. Was it standard or priority please? Thank you.

Please I made a mistake. My graduation in the UK is on 19th July. I submitted my visa application on 30th June but did not pay for priority service. I included all documentation showing that i am going for my graduation. My intended travel date was 13th July.
Please do you think I will get the visa before that date and is there a way I can hasten it?
Do they look at the purpose of a trip before it gets to my turn on the queue or they don't look at it until it gets to my turn? Since it's for a graduation with specified date, will they hasten it?
Please don't criticize me. Thank you in advance.
