Hey Saima!

They are taking months to get back to you! Its my 17th week and i am still waiting to hear back from the UKBA.

I did a status check today got a generic email stating that there have been no updates. Sucks.

Hoping for something positive inshALLAH .

Try emailing them again every week or every 10 days. Hopefully it will change. Insha'Allah:)

That's the link for status check! You'd need your GWF ref number, should be on your receipt which you got when you got your biometrics done.

I'm in the same boat as you! The wait is painful. And the sad part is I even paid for the priority service! :( OMG you paid for priority service and still waiting for response :( , did you get any information why they are taking so much time ? and did you also received same reply that your case is ...

Many congratulations, ZK!
Remember me in your prayers

Insha'Allah! See can the sponsor travel for 2-3 weeks once your case has been applied? And you get a holiday pay for the time off? Can anyone help? Hi Scotgirl I think you can as long as you are salaried because it wouldn't effect you monthly income but if you were non-salaried then you wouldn't ge...

Hey everyone!!
Just a quick question. Did anyone of you received a call from the home office before your decision was made or your employer?

Has anyone tried calling them? I know its quote expensive calling them but is it of any help?

This is so true, it is so important to take the matter into your own habds and go the extra mile as your solicitor will only do what they are paid too, I myself went over and beyon in my wifes case and contacted UKVI nearly every fortnight Hey! Did you directly contact the Sheffield home office or ...

. :/ scotgirl you should email it yourself. my friend who recently got his wife visa applied through solicitor and he was the one who always contacted ukvi directly instead of solicitor. :) Hey! I did send a detailed email last night to sheffield home office. Hoping for a reply. Will do a status ch...

Thankyou, Shifa! Nopes, I haven't received any refund either.
Gonna give my solicitor a call tommorow. Or i was thinking of emailing them myself. :/

11th week's about to end. Still no updates! Extremely worried


And really happy for all who've gotten their visas!

Congratulations, Shifa! So happy for youuuu! x

Scott's girl have you tried a different drop down option when you request an update? Maybe try it! I hope you get some news soon it's so stressful waiting!

Nopes! I haven't tried thatt. Do you think that can make a difference?

Insha'Allah it will be a good news.
I did a status check yesterday, i got a reply stating that my case has been re-escalated. What is that suppose to mean now? So worried

still waiting! My solicitor has sent Sheffield an email requesting a refund for the priority fee! As the system crashed no invoice, but money was taken out of my account! Let's see hope I get my money back! Two months and no news it's a long painful wait! My solicitor has emailed them too but no re...
