That’s for the ‘We got your stuff’ e-mail!

It seems there has been a backlog, because some of the applications submitted in November and December have been taking 50-60 working days from being received in New York (with the first email received about 20 working days after that).

Lately though, the first email has been sent within 2-3 days and it has been taking around 15-30 days for a decision.

I think, the backlog happened from the switch to NY for scanning. Sadly, I don't think they were prepared or trained on how to handle things. Hence the backlog and all of the emails for additional items from UKVI. :(
Even when life seems at it's most dark and despairing.. there is within the power to make change.

Never heard they were recieved so tried sending them again, still nothing. Contacted my husbands MP on Monday with the documents and asked for help getting them to U.K. DMC.

Just got a decision made email this morning, so documents must have got there from his MP??

And now I’m refreshing my UPS tracking every five minutes...

Hope yours comes soon!


ITS A YES!!!!
Thank you to everyone for all the help - I never would have gotten this done without this forum.

Also - just looked through my documents they sent back, looks like they reorganized things a bit and put it in this order: relationship details, financial, accommodation.

Pretty much the same as the No package.

Yes package (Visa Approval)
- spousal visa
All your documents plus a visa sticker in your passport and a letter explaining when and where to pick up your BRP

- fiancé visa:
All your documents plus a visa sticker in your passport, and no letter (because there’s no BRP to pick up)

No package (Visa refusal)
- fiancé and spousal visa:
All your documents plus a refusal letter (and no visa in your passport)
