MY VISA APPLICATION TIMELINE: Country applying from: VI, Nigeria Visa Processing Office Location: Sheffield, UK Type of visa applied for: Settlement - Wife (Non-Priority) 28th of Nov. 2016: Online Application done 30th Nov. 2016 - Bio metrics Taken & Email Confirmation of application from UKBA 30th of Nov 2016 - Sent Supporting documents VIA DHL to Sheffield (Tracked it on my own; got there the next day) 30th Jan 2017- (11.30am) Official Email from UKVI that decision has been made. 30th Jan.2017 (3.59pm) TSL sent mail to come collect passport and other supporting documents. 31th Jan. 2017- Collected my documents and passport with visa on it. Visa is effective from 24th Jan 2017. ADVICE: Make sure you put all relevant documents asked according to GOV.UK. More than less documents is always a good idea. Don't hesitate to provide as much as you can. If you can afford priority by all means please do so, the wait is nerve recking God is on the throne always. Thankful for this forum. It eased my anxiety a lot Well done to all the people that take their time to provide information God bless you all 3 Likes |

HERE IS MINE TIMELINE---- 2YEARS VISITOR VISA BIOMETRIC ---- 01/03/17 TRANSFERRED TO THE EMBASSY --- 01/03/17 RECEIVE BY UKVI ---02/03/17 DECISION MADE ---09/03/17 READY FOR COLLECTION-- 09/03/17 VISA ISSUE DATE --- 07/03/17 My understanding of UK Visa is that it doesn't matter the amount in your account but the reliability and sure of your genuine reason for your visit to the country. I applied with just 190k in my account but i have visited the country more than 4 times and also other countries. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Hi, these are details for my wife: Country applying from: Nigeria Type of visa applied for:Settlement-Wife (non-priority) 13th February 2017 Application submitted online 28th February 2017 Biometrics done at TLS Abuja 10th March 2017 Supporting documents arrived at Sheffield (no confirmation email) 26th May 2017 TLS updated UK Visas & Immigration has now assessed your UK visa application and made a decision (No email from UKVI) 26th May 2017 Documents returned to me (sponsor) 26th May 2017 TLS updated application ready for collection 31st May 2017 Wifey collected passport with 33 month vignette visa dated from 31st May 2017 Note: 1. The 12 week wait is painful but it's unavoidable, if you can afford priority, I'd suggest you do that to avoid the nerve-racking wait. 2. In addition, the 12 week wait for this visa category begins from when the supporting documentation arrives Sheffield and not when the biometrics has been completed. 3. We didn't submit NARIC Statement of Comparability but her LL.B and WAEC and this was miraculously considered. I'd advise anyone putting in this kind of expensive application to do proper research instead of submitting the application unlike us who were recipients of God's mercy. 4 Likes |

No news till after 2 weeks when Sheffield sent a message to advise they have received app and preparing for consideration. Very surprising . Does it take this long?.
