    Hi @coco1523 and a warm welcome to the community from me!

    As they they received the final info in March and it's now showing "in decision queue," you’re likely 2–4 weeks from a decision but it can take up to 12 weeks.

    They do consider social work and support letters and you can call for an update if it’s been a while☺️
