This forum been very useful to me. I have a similar problem with my wife's spouse visa.
Me and my wife applied in person at Bangkok VFS office, with priority service on 24th Feb 2017. So been 22weeks now. Since we applied, heard nothing back, no emails for the pause, no emails for the delayed or complex. When ever we called the paid helpline, they tell us the application is 'awaiting decision' - like it's been like this for months! I asked them about pause and delays... they no nothing! It's really frustrating. Me and my wife spent our wedding anniversary apart.
My salary shown is as director of a company, have shown full year accounts, with payslips of my salary which adds upto 38k a year! All the paperwork been spot on as me and my solicitor worked days to just get everything perfect.
As I can afford priority service, thought I go with it, and went bangkok and spend mini holiday with my wife whilst we wait for the decision. Unfortunately, had to come back and now been sooo long! No answer from anywhere. I have escalated the case more than 5 times now. Nothing! Seriously think the people working behind the paid call, are rip offs! They know nothing!
Can anyone please help me and share your opinion?
I understand, being a director/ self employed could delay it, but I didn't receive any emails stating this. And no one asked to provide any extra documents. Status now is 'awaiting decision' (accorodng to the service call)
Thank you in advance.
I am also self employed (sole trader) and my husband has been away from his home (U.K) for 6 months whilst going through this application process. We didn't get any emails until after the 12 week publishing standard, on the 13th week they said it wasn't straightforward, then sent another email email asking for a NARIC letter to support his degree (but his degree was obtained in the U.K), it just feels like they have no clue and whilst they are looking for excuses to pro-long his application they are forcing us apart, and its killing me... it's just cruel.
