Hi dodokire, I don't know what's happening in your exact situation, but we have been told there is a backlog of applications right now. It has been less than 2 weeks since you submitted your application - and in that time there have been IT problems at the Border Agency, and a bank holiday. Both of these are likely to affect application times.dodokire wrote:Hi all, I and my wife submitted her application for spouse visa since 26th of april and we have not received any acknowledgement letter and the money for the application fee is still intact what could be happening pls?.
I just hope my bank allowed them deduct the fees of £561 because I am more than confused....anybody with any advice

Has anyone received anything lately? Anyone that applied in January/ February got their visas yet? Just interested to see if anything is actually happening or not.
Thanks

No not a word! I am meant to be going to Australia on Wednesday, which is obviously not going to happen. I even sent them a fax explaining why i needed to go home, i never got a reply..... 15 weeks and counting.....kiwi87 wrote:Hi everyone,

Hi, I believe there are 2 or 3 people here who applied in Jan or Feb and have got their visa. You should be able to see their post between page 6 and 10 (not sure exactly which page). But they all got their visa and passport back in April.kiwi87 wrote:Hi everyone,

AngieLynn09 wrote:My husband and I contacted our MP to make an enquiry and they finally received some information. Apparently our application is "awaiting the caseworker's decision." Vague, but at least that means it has a caseworker and it's not waiting to be given to one. But as another sign of UKBA incompetence, they informed our MP that we should send them new passport photos because they were about to request them from us. We sent current ones with the application, so now they've decided they're too outdated I suppose! It's not my fault they've had my application for so long! Argh, anyways, sending new photos tomorrow.
I called the helpline and was told to send them to the address on my acknowledgement letter. Can anyone confirm if that is correct?
