Congrats qadz, happy for you. May Allah swt grant all the rest the happiness that you are feeling at the moment.

@Mrs Asim, interviews could be constructed on any applicants (due to bogus test centres) however most likely the ones who took their test at NTS/ETS centres.
May Allah swt make it easy for us all

Qadz i know you must be so busy with all the preparations and stuff. What English test did you take if i may ask? My wife's visa has been delayed due to English test i guess. She took A1 from ETS.

i applied on 20th January at Islamabad. I am earning 32k. She passed her English test A1 from ETS. I have asked my mp to contact them but same reply everytime still in the process. I have no idea what enquiries they are conducting that they couldn't complete them in more than 6 months.

I wish they invite her for an interview. I am just hopeless. Try to contact UKVI international. I guess Qadz did the same and they told her that decision has been made on your application and she got her visa after that. If your wife had an interview then you must contact UKVI international so they escalate your case.

You should reach as soon as possible, but the maximum duration is of 90 days and make sure you reach there WITHIN 90 days of your visa stamp date. If you reach after 90 days you'll have to extend your visa twice for ILR (waste of one extension fee) to complete your 5 years period.
