It does seem quite unfair, however maybe it has to do with how complex the applications are and if they have to investiagte them further they go back into a pile or something until they 'decide' to pick it up again. I think it might depend on which caseworker picks up the file, which is in other wo...

hi 2222, did you not send in 3 months pay slips and bank statements with your application? or this is in addition to what you have sent before?

Thanks

Have all February applicants here requested the sponsors passport back yet? Myself and a few others here have done that and our visas have then been processed a month after. Worth a shot if you haven't already. Is that a tricky way to get the visa quickly ? It may just be coincidence but several ca...

Does anyone here know if the caseworkers at UKBA actually look into your attendance at uni before granting you FLR(M) if you are switching from Tier 4 student visa to spouse visa FLR(M) ??

Your responses will be greatly appreciated !
