Keep faith.
Phoned and emailed them yesterday on 120 working days, they said and stated the decision has been made. Need to wait for VFS to return the passport. But said and stated in the email they can’t tell us what the decision is. Only find out once we get the passport. Fingers crossed we get to hear Good news after waiting 6 months.Rnaz123 wrote: ↑Thu Oct 21, 2021 11:13 pmI can understand exactly what you are going through as it is the same for me unfortunately. The system is very poorly managed is all I can say. Keep emailing UKVI for an update on the status of the application, hopefully you hear positive news soonSaadAmit wrote: ↑Wed Oct 20, 2021 9:53 pmMy partner hasn’t received a reply back from UKVI it has been 80 days. He submitted his biometric in June 2021.
Been emailing them, called them up several times, escalated the case twice, given me a complaint email address,
Today 20th October 2021 received an email saying that the case isn’t straight forward , it’s going to be more than 60 working days.
WTH is UKVI doing?
They take our hard earned money and then they are playing around with our feelings, they aren’t bothered how stressed we get.
Did your partner submit their biometrics in Islamabad?SaadAmit wrote: ↑Sat Dec 11, 2021 9:50 pmI have finished the 120 days yesterday on 10th December 2021. I thought let me give them a ring. So I did. The staff were very rude. But he then checked the status of the application and said the application is decided. I asked when it was he said he can’t tell me. He said I have to wait until the VFS contact my partner.
So I thought let me send a paid email, to UKVI just to make sure. I got the same reply back from the paid email service aswell.
They said they can’t tell me what the decision is and when it was made. I have to wait till I get the passport. No email from the ECO (UKVI) saying the case is decided.
Now just waiting for VFS to contact my partner.
Applied 24th June 2021

Also after I made a home office complaint by email, I received an email from Sheffield Escalation Team, on the 1/12/2021, but the way the Customer service Team was talking to me on Friday 10th December 2021 the very same day they already made a decision.
In the email I specifically wrote copy and pasted there quote on waiting times, that they have to conclude all the decision by 24 weeks.
Just hope we get the Good news we are waiting for.
InshaAllah all of us who are waiting more than 12 weeks, will get the news and reunite us with our loved ones.
I escalated the case 6x.
InshaAllah hope it will Good news. InshaAllah.

It’s better you always send an email, as you get better response even after a phone call.
Don’t they know during these precedent times, we should be with our loved ones, not far away. But are they bothered. No

How long are we suppose to wait
