Hi..good day..we called the uk visa immigration and my husband follow up my application..the lady told that the decision has already made last July 16..but we did not receive email yet that they will return my passport..according to tls contact here at romania they don't have a passport collection in their visa center and my passport will send to my address..but my problem is how could i know that they already send my passport back..my husband told me to wait until next week maybe my passport will arrive..

@Rajteech13

Why don't you call the UKVI to ask about the status of your application?..maybe they already made a decision on your application..and they didn't send any email about the returning of passport..

[Rajtecch13]

HI I applied via VFS global from india . I thought they will inform us by email about that the passport returning details.because I got a message via VFS only once I done biometric initially.

Congrats Hesli30 for the FP.Can you tell me one thing,pls? When you submitted the passport copy of EU,Did you submit only copy or certified copy as I can't see it as a mandatorily required document(EU/EEA National Passport Copy).
