Spouse visa timeline outside the UK

Post by MH1 » Tue Nov 24, 2020 8:49 pm

Hi there 🙂 so sorry in advance. I have been trying to find the thread for “spouse visa timeline outside the UK” I’m sure it exists already, right? Unfortunately I only found for applications within the UK and for extensions and other. Please can you help and redirect me to the relevant thread? Thanks a lot 🙂

Ther is no general thread. Where are you apply from? There are only a small number of specific country spouse visa timeline threads.

Thanks for your reply CR001. Okay I see 🙂 I’m applying from Ivory Coast (Côte d’Ivoire) with TLS contact. I’m using their app but so far it only says “Application transferred to Decision Making Centre”. The 8 weeks will be completed this week on the 29th Nov. Thanks again

Which 8 weeks are you referring to?

It's stated that applications outside of the UK take 12 weeks (made up of working days) to decide, and it appears this is counted from the date of biometrics.

Having said that, recently many applications from outside the UK are being decided way quicker than those made in the UK.
