We were past our intended move date, so that is just a date they assigned!

My husbands visa got APPROVED! 19/06-19/07. We are so happy, after more than two years apart and sending 2 days together since becoming husband and wife, long distance is all over for us. I’d just like to extend a huge thanks to everyone on here, although I found you after I’d applied you still helped to keep us both sane during the long three months wait. Best wishes and thoughts to those still waiting.

What a fantastic result!

I was actually thinking about you earlier on today as I remembered you were due to find out your decision today.

I’m so happy things turned out the way you hoped.

All the best for the future,

Tim

Still nothing ... now 16 weeks since receipt email ... called call centre again and they said all they can do is escalate my case again, but despite last escalation stating that someone should contact me within 15 working days, it's about 19 working days now and nobody has contacted me ... checked tracking number on UPS, no changes since Feb, checked Visa4UK page and actually now status says "In Active" ... guessing because my expected date of travel was June 20? Good thing I saved the application PDF because I can't open it on the Visa4UK page anymore ... Leaving for NYC in about 10 days to take the exam, was hoping passport would be back by now at least, so we could just fly to France after right after, but nope, looks like we have to either fly back to Texas WITH both our dogs only to have to fly back to NYC again once my passport arrives, or just pay to stay in NYC until my passport arrives *siiiigh* this is awful ... 40 days left until our wedding ceremony in England, so much wedding preparation left to do, poor mum-in-law has had to do everything ... may end up missing the tastings and whatnot ... this is torturous ... emailed the MP, wrote a complaint (no contact at all in 16 weeks?) ... sorry to keep whining here everybody ... thankful for everyone here.

Congratulations to everyone who received happy news back~~

I'm so sorry, that is such a lot of stress above and beyond the usual.
Did you read ksand24's reply to your last post? It looks like there is a possibility that you didn't provide the correct information with your application, it could be that this is the reason that it is taking longer.
Your MP is probably the best hope at this stage, have you had a response to your email, have you tried calling their office?
Hope it happens for you soon.
