My Peruvian parnter applied in Lima in April. Hold email received In May. At the beginning of September the embassy Called me to advise they didn’t recieve my income documents and I had 10 days to send them. Sent them on September 5th. Today the embassy Called me asking when my parnter intends to travel. I asked if this means it’s been approved and she said yes! So. They are processing hold applications, just painfully slowly. Good luck to everyone still waiting
Congratulations.Misskatie wrote: ↑Wed Oct 04, 2017 8:06 pmHi yes I got a call at the end of September from then home office asking when my partner intended to enter the country. I told them November. He picked up his passport yesterday - visa granted and he has to enter between 1 November - 1 December. No email about 31st October as his was already decided before this was sent.
Just in case anyone Is wondering - the tracker has never worked for his application even now it’s been decided
Also, I applied priority & got a refund of my fee in July so I urge everyone who applied priority to do the same
Good luck to everyone still waiting

Hi,
I've noticed a few of your comments on the post. Can you please share your timeline as I think it's similar to mine.
It seems people who applied in January and got not straightforward email didn't hear anything yet.Mehmoods87 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 04, 2017 11:31 pmHal6 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 04, 2017 10:57 pmMehmoods87 wrote: ↑Tue Oct 03, 2017 8:04 pmHi Christ-Believer

Hi Hal6
Applied online 10/1/17
Biometric done in Mirpur 13/1/17- None Priority
Documents sent to Sheffield 24/1/17
Documents received back from Sheffield 27/1/17
Case not straightforward/Hold email received 6/3/17
Made a few calls to UKVI (waste of time)!!
31/10/17 email received
I pray that Allah makes easier for you. I am astonished that you didn't get the 31st Oct email, I thought everyones timeline that exceeded the 6 months would get this email. So I gather some did and some didn't. I wonder it they just randomly emailed us or selected to email us from their database.cinnamonbee wrote: ↑Wed Oct 04, 2017 2:25 amMy application was submitted in January but biometrics was in the first week of February.
I got a "not straightforward" email in April and a "hold" email in May. Aaand nothing since then.
We've not contacted them a lot as they've discouraged it. In August we enquired and the Abu Dhabi office told us it was still processing. We have contacted the relevant MP though.
No 31st October email.
I pray Allah makes a way for all of us.

Hi yes
26 know, wekeend and from Monday it will be 22 days. The days are going fast and I see that there is an increase in the influx of decisions made and all of them have been approved for entry. That 31st Oct email is making an impact.
Also wanting to know how to get priority fees back.Fatzipoo wrote: ↑Thu Oct 05, 2017 1:14 pmHi everyone
I applied on 23rd march and have received the hold email as well as the 31st October mail. My Aunty applied 2 months after me for her daughter and herself, they received their visas today! I'm thinking maybe they're processing family visas first? Also, can anyone let me know how to get my fees back as I paid priority? Also, my case has been escalated twice now
That's awesome, hopefully it will be approved, I'm still waiting for the email to collect our documents, not sure what's taking so long, fed up of the wait now, In Sha Allah it will come soon
