Hey guys! hope you are all good.
As promised, here is my wife's UK spouse visa timeline.

After doing a lot of googling I came across this wonderful forum so I went through it from page 1 to 119 I think.
After gathering all the informations I needed, I decided to apply.


May 4th: I filled the online application for her here in the UK, paid the fees with my bank card, submitted it, then printed out the copy.
I sent the printed application along with supporting documents to my wife in Nigeria(I didn't realise I had to send it to
Sheffield myself)
I also booked her biometric day to may 18th at Ikeja.

May 18th: She did her biometric and was also interviewed on skype. she was also told that the supporting documents should be sent to
Sheffield.

May 19th: She received an email from UKVI stating that they have received her application and that they would send another email after
they have made a decision.

June 17th: I received a phone call from a guy asking me to attend an interview in Cardiff on June 22nd regarding my wife's spouse
visa.(I was so excited)
I went through my wife's application form, memorised where we got married and date, her parents names and date of birth,
where my wife was born, her address, and how we met.

Jun 22nd: I was interviewed on skype by one nice guy. He asked me a lot of questions e.g how I met my wife? how I met the financial
requirement? Accommodation and my job. (I was so relaxed) He told me after that, that was the quickest interview he has
ever done that a decision would be made as soon as possible

June 23rd: My wife got an email that a decision has been made and should expect the passport within 3-5 days.
Well she never received an email or text message from NonPerformace for collection so I asked my wife to go there and find
out what's going

July 07th: She went down to there office and showed them the email she got from UKVI.
Anyway she got her passport with visa on it.
Happyyyyyyyy

girlfio:

If it's not too much of a journey, I would advise that your wife goes down there along with a copy of the email stating that the passport will be dispatched. It's not unreasonable to expect that it should be ready for collection at this stage.

Thank you girlfio.

My wife actually went there today and, lo and behold her passport was given to her with shiny visa on it.
I'm so grateful to God and this wonderful forum without you it wouldn't have been possible.
A big thank you to everyone that have contributed on this forum. I will share the timeline later on.

@Benuromi,

Do you mind me asking you this question? regarding your supporting documents, did they post it to your sponsor in the UK or they sent it together with your passport to Nigeria?

Benuromi:
Can I asked u please, when did you went for the interview in the uk?

I went for the interview on the 22nd of June.

Hello Everyone!

It's been 2 weeks since my wife got a decision email from UKVI and it says the passport would be dispatched within 3-5 days. She has not yet received an email from TelePerformance for collection, is this normal or do you reckon she should go to their office and find out since they have no phone numbers to reach them on.
