Did they mention how long it usually takes? My partner handed in last friday and still no news. I'm getting slightly worried now.
It isn’t automatic, if that’s what you’re expecting. I handed over my passport when they requested it and they contacted me two weeks after to say the passport was ready for collection. Unfortunately, you will have to wait. Also, it’s not even a week since your partner handed over the passport, so I don’t think there’s something to be worried about.

Hi thanks for replying. So in your case it took two weeks. Does it defo mean the visa has been accepted though? The email just stated application has now been assessed and they require the passport. My partner did ask but they never mentioned a date just that they will call. Following this thread and how the ops visa was issued in two days but they never called or forgot to call gets u stressed.

Ok, when did your partner submit their biometrics and hand over the supporting documents?

In my case it was two weeks after but I’ve got my visa accepted first.

Thanks for replying. Biometrics was start of 4th July. Docs scanned 9th July. Received eco email 12th July. Recieved email saying application has now been assessed and require passport 20th Sep. Passport submitted 27th Sep.

Does this mean the application has been accepted now that they are asking for passport or can it still be refused?

Also did they call you or email? Where did you apply from? Thanks

The only way to find out is when your partner receives their passport back. Nevertheless, it doesn’t make sense they would reject the visa and still ask for the passport. You might presume it’s been accepted, but there’s no guarantee and you will have to wait until having the passport on your hands.

Oh, then you should expect to have news about the passport around two weeks after September 27th.

They emailed me from the VFS centre. I’ve applied from Mexico.
