Just had an email from Worldbridge; you'd think they might tell you the outcome - so is this good news or do we have to wait until tmrw to find out??

Worldbridge are intermediaries who are not given information about the outcome of a particular application. You'll have to wait and see what's in the envelope. Some locations do send emails indicating that a visa has been issued but these come from the visa section (using a gov.uk domain) rather than the visa application center (Worldbridge, VFS).

YES, Fiance Visa granted

On the last of the 60 working days as I thought. What a bunch of muppets, 30 minutes looking at the file would show anyone with half a brain that we clearly met all the requirements - I think they are under orders to delay delay and delay.

But we are happy :)

Congrats. I think you waited a long time but there were checks that needed to made that meant your application was not straightforward.

In your own words you previously described your fiancee thus:

a stateless Russian Latvian who has had 2 visit visas refused this year

I read the documents you submitted and it still took them 60 days. It is so unclear why some people have a fiance visa in 10 working days and others 60. When looking at the UKBA website on processing times this seems to happen all around the world.

Well done for getting the visa.
:D
