We had an AAT/ART file lodged in Aug 2024 and were still waiting for it to be opened, while holding a BVA. During this time, we travelled overseas twice on a BVB with no issues at the airport. One trip was to lodge the 189 application, and the other was for holidays. No onshore work experience.

Mine was slightly more complicated as I had to go through the courts for a specific issue order. I was also refused support from two of the top visa agents as they said my case was complicated and very unlikely... so did it all myself.
For anyone else in this position, you have to take the gamble and do the court application and visa simultaneously. You won't get court approval without being in the visa process and you can't get your visa without courts approval. It's a gamble and it's costly but worth it!
Total cost for visa - Β£6200
Total cost including court order - Β£20,400
