The same situationMKapadia wrote: ↑Fri May 24, 2019 8:00 amHi everyone, here is my timeline
Country applying from: Mumbai North
Type of visa applied for: settlement (wife)
Priority/Non-Priority: Non-Priority
Online application submitted: 13/03/2019
Biometrics submitted: 13 March 2019 (walk-in appointment for 3000INR)
Documents sent to VFS Scanning Hub in Manchester by sponsor: 19/03/2019
(£75 for scanning all documents)
Email stating ‘your application is currently being prepared for consideration by an Entry Clearance Officer’: 10/05/2019
(Is this a good sign)
I am still awaiting for decision email.
I was looking at my credit report on Noddle.com and I found HMRC completed an Identification check on me on 03/05/2019. Nothing to worry about but I thought it was interesting! Now fingers crossed we all get the results we hoping for.
How you know the date decision was made??
I called UKVI on 10th May and was told by the operator that a decision was made with STATUS DATE 8th May. The operator said that its not the exact date of decision but the latest date on their computer.

Hi, I know and I submitted my biometrics on 9th April. I called them today, they said that my application is still being processed and I should get a decision within the next 30 working days. I have seen some people get their decisions without getting the ECO emailJhelumi wrote: ↑Thu May 23, 2019 10:31 pmHello,ANKST wrote: ↑Thu May 23, 2019 7:47 pmLOL I'm definitely not handling it well. I haven't even got the Entry clearance officer email and it's been 30 working days for me today. Thinking of calling them today and asking for an update. Some people have said that they have stopped sending the ECO email after a certain date but I've seen people getting it even long after the date I gave my biometrics on.revathykanickaraj wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2019 6:19 pmHow u guys are really handling the days to hear the result from UKVI...am so restless...didn't get any update after the Entry clearance officer email....very stressed....its only 42 days...
They are still sending e-mail as of 22-May-2019.
Hope to hear a news...at least...from visa office...MKapadia wrote: ↑Fri May 24, 2019 5:40 pmHi revathykanickaraj,revathykanickaraj wrote: ↑Fri May 24, 2019 5:33 pmMonday is govt. holiday right? Omg...3 days continues leave for visa office .....will indian vfs office work?
Yes unfortunately it is holiday on Monday but Vfs offices in India are open. I have been following your timeline and we have very similar dates. Hope our good news come next week or so. So stressed

I am also worried .as both my and my child applications were link together and on 15 june i collected her passport and minenot reachead.yesterday email received decision was ade on both applications .i cant understand what is happening to us.did not u visit to jerry office and check may be your passport is there for collection .Y123m wrote: ↑Fri May 24, 2019 4:23 pmI called UKVI on 10th May and was told by the operator that a decision was made with STATUS DATE 8th May.

I also called my local MP today whose secretary called the home office. He was told the same that a decision was made around 8th May and they would get back to me within 5 days. They also said they would ask visa post (whatever that means), why my wife’s passport hasn't been sent back.
I also called UKVI yesterday and escalated.
Everything seems very strange.
My wife lives a few hours aways from VFS Mumbai in India, so it would be a pointless trip if the passport isn't there. They don't even have a phone number which we can call to ask them. They really do make life very hard for us.Miyash wrote: ↑Fri May 24, 2019 4:05 pm
