how is it bro?Singaporean wrote: ↑Tue Sep 03, 2019 8:58 amThey told me on 28 aug email that my CAS is used.
Anyway I think the Sheffield email can take a few days sometimes. Sometimes people get on the same day, like myself. However some people who receive Sheffield email later than me already got their visa. Does not seem to make much difference.

thats nice. I called UKVI last week and they said a decision has been made (about 4 days) - no interview - nothing. Just waiting for VFS to reach back - collecting the passport. I think you should be getting the visa already ah since they've asked for your passport.Singaporean wrote: ↑Wed Sep 11, 2019 2:39 amReceived email that my application have been assessed last week.
Submitted my passport to VFS last Friday as I applied for 'keep my passport'.
Now waiting for passport to return. No idea when but they said 5-7 work days after submission and possible delay..
How about you?

I was also looking at other threads and some SG peeps went down without the collection email - they said they did that and received their passport. however, I went down yesterday and they said my passport not ready. lol.
