Better to take a bit longer to maximise your chances than rush through it and end up having to re-apply in 6/12 months. You may get an email from the recruitment team to ask if you still want to continue with your application, as long as you respond then there should be no issue.
That's great to hear!
How long were you able to delay the process for?
I am of the same thinking of you too. I want to make sure that I give myself the best chance possible
