I got my decision email!!! Im so shocked! Passport will arrive in 2 working days! Omgosh so fast! We did biometrics on 9th March. It was sent the same day to UKVI.
I just got the decision email right now. What does this mean??? Isnt it tooo early??? Its been like 17BD. What if it was a fast decision because its a rejection?

Congratulations :D!.

See the posts above regarding fast decisions.

A fast decision is usually an approval... a few other people have received fast decisions this week too, though they haven't received their documents back yet.

This is what it said:
Please note that your application for a UK Visa has now been processed by the Decision Making Centre in Pretoria and has been sent to the visa application centre where you submitted your application.  Delivery times vary depending where you submitted your application. Please note that these timescales are approximate and will depend on couriers and flight schedules.

I got my decision email last Wednesday & my documents back last Friday! APPROVED! 19BD excluding mail time. It's been a whirlwind week & I fly home today! This process is incredibly stressful. Good luck & happy thoughts to those of you that are still waiting. The relief when it arrives is indescribable!

My visa was processed in Pretoria, South Africa , according to the email. I applied from Tanzania. So the above info that you mentioned that fast decisions are for USA, so im worried they have given me a fast rejection.

I am a newbie here but wanted to share my timeline.

Applied from: Atlanta USA- Standard Spouse (husband is a Brit)
Online Application:  February 13, 2018
Biometrics: February 16, 2018
Documents received in Sheffield: February 26
Email Confirmation of application received: February 28
Non-Straightforward: None

I called a spoke with UKVI since it has been over 30 BD, after making me feel totally ridiculous for calling this soon, I was told that my application had been reviewed by the ECO and that it was pending decision since March 19.  That of course sounded great to me but she informed me that means little and it could take many more weeks or months for a decision to be made.  She also informed me that applications are being delayed right now and many are taking greater than 12 weeks.   >:(  Feeling totally frustrated and wishing I had applied expedited in hindsight....  Best of luck to all of you. This is brutal!

Welcome!  :)

We do have a non-priority timeline also but it had slipped back a bit. Here it is if you would like to join in there too.  :)
