Iv'e sent them a paid email on 17 July 2019 asking for an update on why its not straightforward, i didn't get an email back yet and its been a week? what i don't understand is whats so not straightforward about my case, the soliciter checked it before it was submitted and she said it looks like a straightforward case all the requirments are there, but i just don't understand whats going on. I'm scared after all those days waiting, pain and stress it gets refused for a stupid reason.
can someone tell me if they recieved this type of email before? if they did how long did it také UKVI to process your visa? and wither it was granted or refused? if refused what was the reason??
I will keep updating
