Travel / Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by Desmond112: 9:32pm On Sep 23, 2020
First timer. Hello friends, I want to share my experience and ask for directions how to go about my wife's dependants application.
Online application for my tier 4 visa was submitted 6th August 2020
Biometric and interview was 20th Aug
Not straightforward mail received 7th sept
I was Scheduled for phone interview 10th Sept 4.30pm
I waited for the call, it didn't come until 6pm when I had boarded a plane to attend my traditional marriage which was to hold 12th Sept.
I waited for a reschedule mail as the interviewer who called the previous day promised to send. The reschedule mail didn't come. No call came through too.
I sent a simple email to request to be rescheduled on 11th Sept
I got rescheduled for 15th Sept and got interviewed over the phone same day.
No correspondence since then till date.
I'm very worried now as it's been 5 weeks since my first interview and biometrics

I also wanted help how I would go about my wife's dependants visa. I'm waiting for my visa to be ready before I apply for her.
I like to state that as at when I submitted my application, I filled no dependant because we weren't married as at 6th August.
What supportimg documents would we be needing for her dependant visa? I am worried because I filled No for dependant on my application. Would this be a problem when we are ready to submit her applicantion?
We have our marriage certificate, wedding pictures, what'sapp chats for one year, it should be more but we have changed phones a couple of times.
I need guidance as much as I can get here.
Thank you all and we love you. Wifey send her regards.
Desmond.
Jktk:
Tier 4 Visa Timeline: 11 working days (Standard)

Received CAS: 1st Sept (Was delayed)
Application: 2nd Sept
Biometrics: 7th Sept (walk-in at tls Ikeja)
Received email from Uni that CAS has been used: 8th Sept
Received not straightforward email: 11th Sept
Received decision has been made: 18 Sept
Pick-up email: 22nd Sept
Collection: 22nd Sept, 2020

Visa Status: Approved!

No interview at tls center Ikeja, no follow-up interview on phone. Just drop off. It's a rare privilege.

Lesson learned:
Make your application as simple as possible and avoid unnecessary info and explanation in the name of cover letter. Experience indeed is the best teacher...I learnt the hard way.

ALL THE BEST GUYS.
