Re: Immigration for my husband

Thank you very much for the guidance. I am currently living with my parent in their own house. They are happy to accommodate us (me and my husband) until we find a suitable place to move in.

Re: Meaning of confirmation email that my wife received?

I received the same generic email a few days after my husband's biometric appointment- by which time I had also tracked and the documents to find they had been signed for. Hopefully this means your whole application is also with them. Will the postage your wife used allow her to track when the docum...

Ah I bet you're relieved! Your biometric was the middle of July, maybe we have 3 weeks then :D

Did they make any contact with you/employer at all? I have a feeling I should expect a call as I applied combining my salary and savings

Re: She got the visa!!

Many congrats! I regret not having paid for priority now. I've waited 2 months of the standard application time (just got back from a 3 week visit to my husband in between) but the separation again and continued wait is awfully painful. When is your wife allowed to travel from? Is it 20 days or 28 d...

Re: Query from Home Office

Insha'Allah you hear good news very soon.

Just looked at your timeline, did you submit a priority application?

We submitted a standard online app on 1st August and biometrics on 9th August. Do you know which date are the 12 weeks counted down from? Running out of patience now :(

Re: Online application form and Appendix 2 sending to shefie

Your spouse (applicant) sends you the signed copy of the online form, and you then submit both forms along with all your supporting documents as one parcel to Sheffield - within 2 weeks of the biometric appointment.
