Merry Christmas y’all!!
My docs arrived today and I’m approved!!!!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone that helped me out!!

For those that are still waiting, I hope it’s not long now!! 😁😁

Also, just for reference:
-I did try to scan and upload everything myself to the website. The only things I didn’t scan were: the pas sport photos, my passport copy, and the priority payment receipt.
-Everything I didn’t personally scan, I had an electronic copy of and uploaded that, including husband’s bank statements and paystubs
-I wasn’t asked for additional information, but I did send a letter for confirmation of receipt of materials.
28 WD’s, not counting Thanksgiving or Christmas.

Small side note:
Did anyone else get their passport photos returned to them?? Are we supposed to take those to immigration when we arrive? Because mine were unused....

No, you don’t need to do anything with them.

They always return the passport photos  now because they are not used. They used to put your passport photo on your visa, but they use the biometrics photo now.

In fact, you probably didn’t need to send the passport photos at all.

Hi everyone! Hope you all have been enjoying the holidays.

I’m waiting for my connecting flight to Edinburgh and I will be reunited with my husband in 9 short hours!!

Wanted to pop in and thank everyone (especially the experts!) for all of the guidance and encouragement during our application. You are all truly rock stars and this forum is a godsend!

Fingers crossed for everyone still waiting for an avalanche of approvals in the new year.  ;D

Thank you! Can’t even express how thrilled I am to be heading back to Scotland.

I’ll be up in Elgin for the next few months before we move down to Glasgow. So I’ll be in your neck of the woods!
