UK visa issued today!!! They rec'd it on friday midday and approved it monday afternoon, so one day, essentially. Thank you so much everyone for your advice and help! Booking my flight once I get my stuff back for hopefully a week from today! Yayy! I also used third party, so I'll post on the other thread I started if there are any questions about what I provided:

Hooray, it's like a huge weight lifted off of your shoulders isn't it?
The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

May you find hope in the darkest hours and focus on the brightest days free from bitterness that grows you may not judge the universe.

I am now up to where my visa is being processed by the consulate... (see below timeline in signature)...

BUT, I've just received this afternoon an email saying:

Dear Applicant

Please be advised that further processing is required on your application and we will make a decision on your case at the earliest opportunity. The estimated processing time for your application has been revised and may now be up to 10 working days from today's date.

What could this mean?  I think my DF's finances looked really confusing, so that's why I think this might be happening... but I also previously held a UK volunteer visa in 05-06, so maybe they're checking into this?  Ultimately the question is: should I be worried?
