    Same here submitted mid June....then an e mail saying more info required 4 weeks ago but no mention of what info so e mailed back asking what info.....they replied 2 week later and info sent last week so back of the queue again, it was in the final stage as well.
    Very similar to my situation. Do your mind if I ask what probate office yours is with? Ours is with Newcastle probate office

    Our solicitor applied for letters of administration late July 2022, this was granted on 6th December 2022 however documentation was not received until late January 2023. The reason given was their printers broke down. Office was Newcastle.
