    Assessment in progress basically means a case officer has been allocated.

    I recently applied for a friend's visitor Visa and it took almost 45 calendar days to come through. Hope this helps.

    The duration varies from case to case.
    I will share my experience, however. I have applied 3 visitor visas in the last year. It has taken between 3 to 12 calendar days.
    Please note that this is not a benchmark. It may take longer
    Good luck
