Like you I also applied on 4th August but from Lahore - Pakistan. My application was handed over to ECO on 13th August. I have not heard anything from UKVI till date now.leclecc wrote:I am stressing out these days with no sleeps... argh
I applied on 4th August in Hong Kong, thought everything will go alright like the 2 previous times I applied for student visa.
Then I received an email saying my online application is received in sheffield on 17th August.
It is a total 2 weeks for my application to reach Sheffield.
I am just wondering has anyone experiencing the same thing?
My intended of travel is 29th August, but reading all the threads on different forum makes me feel that I'll not be able to make it.

Dear <<MISSING DATA FOR:>>## First Name ## ***********,
Regarding Visa Application: GWF0********
For: <<MISSING DATA FOR:>>## First Name ## ******
Your online application has been received at the UK Decision Making Centre. Your application is currently being prepared for consideration by an Entry Clearance Officer.
If you have made a Settlement application (except for applications lodged in USA and Canada): you must ensure that your UK sponsor has sent all relevant supporting documentation to the UK Decision Making Centre in Sheffield. The documents should be arranged in this order: application form and relevant Appendix* (See below); English language evidence; relationship documents; maintenance documents; accommodation documents. If documents are not received a decision will be taken on the basis on the information that has been provided.
If you have already had your supporting documents scanned in at the Visa Application Centre, or if you have already sent them in to us, please ignore the request for documents.
Please note that UKVI aims to complete all Visit Visa applications within 15 working days and all Settlement Visa applications within 12 weeks of the application date. If it is not possible to complete your application within this timeframe a member of our team will contact you to explain why.
If you have paid for Priority Service, your application will be placed in front of the queue and assessed ahead of other non-priority visa applications. As indicated in the terms of service, the amount paid for the priority service, as well as the visa fees, is not refundable if the visa application is refused or if the decision is delayed.
We regret that we are unable to respond to enquiries asking about the status of any application. Any status enquiry should be made to the international enquiry service, details of which are on the GOV.UK website. Staff at Embassies, visa processing centres and visa application centres cannot assist with visa enquiries. You may also wish to view the current processing times for applications made in your country.
A further email will be sent to you to confirm when your application has been assessed and dispatched. If your application was made in a Visa Application Centre, the staff there will contact you when your documents are ready – please do not attend the Centre until you are requested to do so.
Please note that you are advised not to purchase flight tickets until you have secured a visa for travel to the UK.
