How did you expect GIA to inspect/measure/weigh the diamond if its in a ring?

Yes GIA do take quite some time to grade stones, not up to 6 months though. Up to 3 months from my experience.
And yes the diamond would have to be unset from the ring for any one to be able to provide a document for it.

There are gemological laboratories in the UK, less cost, less risk in shipping, less headache.
You get faster service and you can call them.

I hope your diamond gets returned to you with the certificate.
