Hey All, :D:D:D I got the VISA!!! It was such a dreadful waiting period and I have no clue why they delayed it because the visa says that it is valid from 24th July, but they did not post it until yesterday!! Anyway, very happy now! :) and I hope that the rest of you get yours ASAP. Thanks for all ...

Congrats @goto_venkat :D

Very happy for you. Apparently, for mine, the BHC wrote down the wrong postal code! So, the delivery is delayed. Hope I get it this evening!

Happy to inform you that I got another reply from BHC, Chennai to my email saying that they have made a decision on my application and will be despatching my passport later on today. Fingers crossed, I really hope I get it tomorrow (status hasn't changed as of yet) and that I will be granted a visa ...

Hi those who applied from Hyderabad, I applied on April 27th from Hyd and when I sent them an email, they said that it is in the final stages of processing. So, if they are still working on applications from April 27th, I am guessing they will start finishing yours soon enough. So, perhaps you can ...

Thanks for the info king2be98. I really hope that it is not a rejection for me! I hope you have won or will win the appeal. May I ask why they refused it? Thanks again. Guys you will get your applications back within a week, when that email was sent across to us, we got our application ...

Hi Liza, Yeah, I gave them 3 numbers to track it. 1) Reference Number from VFS Status Tracking Page 2) My passport number including the alphabet 3) Application Number found on the application goes something like GWF12345678 Hope that helps. I hope you get a response soon. Hello there... AM also ...

Hi All, I applied on April 27th from VFS Hyderabad. I wrote an email to the BHC Chennai asking for an update and they informed me that it is in the final stages and that they will let me know once a decision has been made. So, I am thinking that they haven't made a decision, and I am wondering if ...

Hey Nad, There are two more people (me and goto_venkat) who still haven't heard back. I called VFS yesterday and they said the current processing time is ...

Hi Guys, My wife submitted the settlement application on 10th May from Hyderabad, India, We haven't heard anything yet, it's over 2 months Can we send an email to the counsulate and find out what's happening, has anyone got there email address, If get a letter from my local MP in UK do you think ...

One more chance before you ditch him and move on to people who care :D Show me your draft so i can copy and paste LOL . I think meeting my mp at her surgery may help but feel its too early for this week, as she only enquired last week. Yes. Of course. Send me your email id as a PM. I will probably ...

Yeah, I know what you mean about the UKBA being evil if we cause too much pressure. It really puts us in a difficult position, doesn't it? That is why, I am going to mention that fact as well in my emails to other MP's. The same here, my husband is generally a very calm person. Up until now, he was ...

Hi Maroonedsoul, Did your mp get back to you at anything they may do to help ? I'm thinking of seeing mine too- as no reply since i asked her to look into the situation further- but will wait until 72 days are over as that's the "average" time for Chennai- though we have someone who has been ...

Hi All, Just wanted to let you know I got my Visa today, finally the wait is over and I am so Happy :). I got it in 58 working days. I hope all those waiting for their visas get it soon. Hey JS26, Hearty Congratulations! So glad you got it within 60 days. I regret my decision to apply in Hyderabad ...

Hi S_kaur, I am so sorry to hear about your rejection. The thing that annoys me about this decision is although there are certain guidelines on what a genuine relationship constitutes, when they are unable to decide, they should seek an interview to learn more about the applicants. Not all ...

Hi , My wife applied for settlement visa on 10th may, and on UKBA site it says 84% applications were processed in 60 days, I wonder how long they will take it's over two months.. application submitted in Hyderabad, India.

Hi Abdul, My husband applied for his X visa (5 year visa for those who are married to Indian ...
