TravelRe: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by phardey: 11:41am On Jan 28, 2016
Wow! Congrats. That was swift.

Hi Guys,
I would like to thank everyone on here for all their help. I have not been able to sleep for a couple of days because I have been so nervous but I thank God it is all over and now I can be reunited with my wife. Here is my timeline

Application submitted: 14th of Jan
Application received email: 18th of Jan
Documents received at shiefield: 19th of Jan
Decision made email: 20th of Jan
Passport collected: 27th of Jan

I paid for priority and it was worth it. Best to work for an extra month, save the money for it and get everything processed within 2 weeks.

I wish everyone waiting for a decision all the best and I pray your application will be successful. God bless!

@justwise @girlflo @lexusG460
You guys are the best I must say. I moved to the UK in July after getting my Spouse Visa in June. I just came to read to the threads Reading the threads brought tears to my eyes. It's been a fantastic journey. I'm all settled here now. Got a job in Sept.... similar to the role I was working in while I was in Nigeria.
I pray everyone will get their Visas ... (Amen)

Just wanted to thank you guys.


@portsmouth, Gosh I admire your strength and courage. I've been following your posts since I applied for my spouse Visa in April. I kept reading the thread and was praying I will read your success story. Its almost here sweety. Good luck.
Best to luck to everyone.
This is going to be the 1st xmas I'm spending with my husband this since we got married in 2013.

Merry Xmas Everyone.

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. grin
Happyyyyyyyy grin grin grin grin grin
Congrats.. I got my spouse visa last month too. It was such a relief.

@justwise


I got the following email from sheffield today.

Mail Subject: Your Visa Application: VAF XXXXXXX

Dear XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX,

Regarding Visa Application: GWFXXXXXXXX
For: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

A decision has been made on your UK Visa application. Your application will be dispatched shortly from the Decision Making Centre in Sheffield, UK. If anyone contacts you advising that your application is still under consideration or that they can influence the outcome of your application in any way, they cannot - please report any such approach to VisaSheffield@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk.

Applications submitted at a Visa Application Centre will be returned there for you to collect.

Applications submitted in Yaounde, Dakar, Banjul, and Lagos Visa Application Centres will be available for collection 3 - 5 days after receipt of this email. Please do not attend these VACs until this time has passed, or until you are notified that your documents are ready for collection.

You should not expect to receive any further notification from this office unless you have made your application in North America and submitted a pre-paid courier envelope for your documents to be returned directly to you. If so you will also receive a further email with the courier tracking reference. Please note that if you applied at the Toronto Visa Application Centre on or after 28 April 2015, and have paid for your documents to be returned directly to you, you will shortly receive your tracking number from the Visa Application Centre rather than from this office.

Kind regards,

Sheffield Visa Section

Please does this mean I got my Visa or not.
Please if you got like the email above and you didn't get your visa please indicate.

Thanks everyone
