If you are American, live in one of the states mentioned above, and plan to travel to the UK, request your visa within the three months prior to travelling, because the UK Border Agency can only post-date visas by a maximum of three months from the decision date on its visa application. You should know, however, that there are visas that cannot be post-dated.
You must apply for your UK visa online <visa4uk.fco.gov.uk/Welcome.htm>, and can set foot in the country anytime after your visa’s issue date, not before, hence, be cautious and wait until your visa is approved and delivered to confirm your travel plans to the UK.
The processing time for your visa begins to count once the personnel at the UK Border Agency is in possession of the application, and it varies according to the type of visa you are applying for.
The UK Border Agency recommends that you not buy a non-refundable and non-flexible ticket if you are travelling to the UK and you don’t have a visa yet; it will not assume responsibility for any financial losses or expenses incurred, and it does not rush any visa-processing times just because you have already chosen a travel date.
You may read the following chart that shows the average processing times of UK visa applications received in Chicago during January 2010; however, these times are shown for purely illustrative purposes and not guaranteed at all. Every visa application is considered individually as every person’s situation is unique, thus, processing times may vary.

Processing times are shown in working days, excluding weekends and public holidays. These are calculated from the day the visa application centre in Chicago received your visa application form.
The biometric enrolment must be taken care of at a Department of Homeland Security Application Support Centre in the US at the person’s convenience before the documents are delivered.
