Processing time for Tier 2 general Visa - applied from India

Post by suniltalabhaktula » Tue Feb 11, 2014 3:05 pm

Need help on below queries :

1. Category applying under - Tier 2 General
2. Country of application - India
3. City of Visa Application Hyderabad
4. Date of application - 27th Jan 2014
5. Date of submission of documents (if different from above). - 29th Jan 2014
6. Date Entry Clearance valid from: waiting
7. Duration for Entry Clearance - waiting
8. Date of passport received - still waiting

They confirmed that it will take 8 - 10 working days. Today ( 10th working day ), I have received an email stating that "In order to assess your visa application we need to carry out further checks. A decision on your application shall be made as soon as we receive the results of our enquiries.
I am afraid it is not possible to tell you exactly when we will receive these results. However we will contact you as soon as a decision has been made.
"

What does this mean ? What are the timelines for the completion of the above mentioned inquiries ? How long will it take more for me to receive the visa ?

They will hopefully make a decision soon, it just depends what they're checking.

"As there are ongoing internal enquiries on your application a decision is pending. Kindly await the decision."

We haven't heard about any update after the biometric(almost 3 weeks now). Is there a way to check the status/position of the Visa online?

I am still waiting for the VISA status update?

Hi Poonam,
Guess 3 weeks is ok time. You may hear something very soon. you can not check status of your visa online. Pls contact https://ukvi-international.faq-help.com and fill up email form to know the status.

Have they interviewed you? If yes what questions they asked? This can be one of the factor if visa is delaying.

I would suggest wait for another week and then only try contacting them.

Yes. They do reply. Expect only status and no more details. Takes 1 day from date of email.

@urfrnd

Many thanks.
So all we can expect is status like " In-progress" and the likes.
We wouldn't get to know how many days (Remaining) it will take , right ?
