No, it worked for me-if I could post pictures on here I would show you. I put In my GWF # and It has a bar that said my application has been decided and the date.It says that it should be with me in 10 business days but today is the 11th business day.
 Others from the US are using it too and it is working

Didn't say it didn't work for you, just saying that it SHOULDN'T actually have worked for you, because the tracking service is not supposed to be available for applications made in the US :).

Guess they are being sneaky about it :P. Not sure that the 10 working days actually applies though, since that's strictly an 'inside the UK' timeline.

If you're applying in the US, your documents are normally sent out 1-2 days after the decision has been made and then you receive them 1-2 days later, depending on your shipping service. There's no reason for it to take 10 business days back to the US.

Not sure why yours is taking so long though.

So I was curious... I've applied outside the US for a fiancé visa that was rec'd on May 12.  I haven't had a decision email.  I saw the link on this thread and thought... why not?  So, mine apparently has been decisioned.  It was complete on 27th May.  If 10 days were to apply, then I "could" have correspondence next Monday which is June 12th. Which falls quite nicely with the typical priority processing time "expectation"

Will see... I'm just glad to see my app exists.

Im beginning to think there is no time like that can be accuratley tracked for any of this... as we were told a decision had been made through the enquiry service on the 30th may and still no offcial documents or anything.. but doesnt make sence that it would take a week and more in marens case between decision being made and official notication given /documents recieved and absolutley no recourse till after 12 week turn around dates

I have definite confirmation that a decision was made 5/18. There is a new link you can use to track your application....
Says to expect the package/formal email up to 10 business days after your decision is made. Today is business day 11 for me

You can use this link, https://contact-ukvi.homeoffice.gov.uk/app/visa_application/checkvisastatus and your GWF # to check the status of your application.  Unfortunately, the only information you can gleam from this is if your application is "open, awaiting a decision or a decision has been made".   And it also states within "10 working days" you "should" receive your answer or you can give them a call

I tried it with my GWF and IHS numbers and both "don't exist" WUT?

Also I am rooting for you so hard, this is such a terrible position to be in. I really hope they resolve it quickly. Have you tried speaking to them again?

Honestly I don't want to waste any more time or money getting useless answers from them. It's in my MPs hands now

Where did you end up getting married? I know you were considering Ireland but never saw the follow up to those threads.

Just in case anyone is wondering...still NOTHING. I now have written a complaint and the MP cant help until Thursday when the hotlines are back working. Case has been escalated twice and no response. This is absolutely insane.

I am so sorry, that's awful. How long has it been now?

I'm in the same boat with you. Decision was said to have been made on May 28th... no package and BS lines about how it's processed.

Decision was made over 3 weeks ago (may 19th). Total time waiting-almost 15 weeks. This is absolutely nuts. Very concerned that my passport is lost.

I'm not anywhere near the 15 weeks but the whole enquiry line decision portion is exactly how mine has started.  I hope you're packet comes... I'm praying for it.

I'll keep you posted...it is beyond infuriating and the new call center is the WORST. Have you escalated? How can they just not get back to people after the amount of money we have spent?? How can they have no accountability at all? This is a matter of serious urgency and possible identification compromise if my passport is lost-how can they get away with not answering me?

I have called.  I'll spare everyone but if you want to read about my experience with the new contact center go look at the "Escalated" thread. I chose not to escalate bc the guy told me it could delay it to 15 days and said to give it until Friday before proceeding. I'm scared to do much of anything at the moment.
