It can be normal - have to give it up to 5 days in some circumstances - you can follow up with your bank

What time did you do the transfer?

Mine to Hong Kong were delayed from a London bank.

It is very normal.

Sometimes we will get the money in the next working days,sometimes we will get the money in the next 2-3 days,this happend to me many times from uk to china mainland by TT.So donot worry if you donot make any mistake on the form.
