Maybe its only available to people that have already "raised their case" with them verbally/electronically since it started? thats kinda updated it to the new checking platform? just a thought

, Unfortunately not the case. I have never escalated or called or emailed. It did work for me when I copied it straight from my original email from them.

I'm expecting a rejection too although I don't have a decision email yet, do you mind sharing why you think it could be a rejection?

I'm sick of everyday passing now in disappointment. Think I'm going to pay the fee and just call them to try and find out what's happening. It's just been to long now I feel like something's gone wrong in my application process  :-\\\\

I wonder if the 'not recognised' message might be because the app hasn't been opened yet.

I know that technically the status check is for in UK apps, but some of the people on here have reported seeing something.

Which would be a depressing theory but plausible [smiley=bigcry.gif]

Don't say that. If that is correct I think it would send me over the edge. That's why I wanna phone tomorrow morning see where I get

It is "supposed to" be for inside U.K.  The only reason I think mine shows up is because the attorney sent my packet in from London.  Even so, mine says decision made with a date of 27/5 but the attorney hasn't gotten an email and my ups tracking hasn't changed from when I bought it.  If anything the website has made me more anxious... I was better off probably not looking in the first place.

 Maybe tomorrow will be your day!

It's a weird site/visa system (to begin with), and my idea is just a theory. I have no idea, and tomorrow could be your day cause the actual decision-making process only takes a couple hours.

On the bright side, you'll hear loads before I do. Soon, you'll be the super awesome visa wielding human while I'm the sad icon person with only my cats to console me.   [smiley=badlove.gif]

Did you phone yet? Hope you get some answers or at least an escalation even if that doesn't appear to mean much. My phone call took 30 minutes and a lot of persisting and re-stating facts - still not sure it had any impact. So sorry you're going through this

Just got of the phone then. A nice guy said he can see my application is in processing stage and decision hasn't been made yet. He escalated my case but he said that can take 15 days to get contacted by them. He seemed shocked that i paid priority but he did say there was a lot of applications and that every application has different circumstances that can take longer. So really not much i can do but wait  :-\\\\

Sickening when the May people are getting decisions as quickly as 11 days, I'm sure! Hope you catch a break soon. And work hard now so you are ready to leave for the UK as soon as your visa comes in. My wife and I are doing the move in 3 days, so it's an absolute panic.

It does make really question their processes if people are getting their visas when applying in May. I just can't get my head around it. I have had clothes packed ready to go at a moment's notice.
