You kidding me? What have you done about it? The UKVI published response time on visit visa applications is a maximum of 60 working days. If you submitted on 4th April then UKVI must have made a decision on your application by 29th June. Yours is way beyond that.

I'm not sure what actions you have taken, but you need to push this , contact the help line and insist this gets escalated and ask that UKVI contacts you with an update on your application. If you are visiting a family member in the UK, ask them to contact the home office.

UKVI service standard is ridiculous especially towards certain 3rd world countries. I thought changes are made to a process for improved service and not for degraded level of service.

Be mindful. I just hope they haven't misplaced your application .

I applied for 6months UK visit visa (standard service) since May 17th and i am yet to get a response since then.
I called the UKVI about 3weeks ago,they said application not yet decided. Pls those who have called to escalate,what/how do u tell them to escalate it once an agent picks the call?(did the escalation get them to decide application on time,within how many days) Travel date has passed and i am first timer. This is becoming depressing,pls help!!!

Lexusgs430:
Did you apply for spousal or visiting visa?

Lexusgs430:
You are already assuming it's a rejection? Did you prepare your documentations well? All in date and supporting documents properly packaged?

Hiya Nakiemi and ShugaChris. Any news?

harry41:
Go to the centre on friday as stated. The questionnaire is a mere survey which you can fill if you want. However, how come your application took 2months

Lexusgs430:
Your date of travelling on your application, does not affect your visa. Lets assume your visa is issued on the 21st, it would still be valid up to 3 weeks after date of issue ........
Not unless you have purchased your ticket in anticipation or have a deadline to meet .......

Nakiemi:
Dear All,

I hope you are well. I came across this forum while googling about uk spouse visa and I've been silently looking and making notes up till I now made my own account.

I am British national married to a Nigerian national.

We sent out application on 5th April and biometrics on 7th April. We paid a priority service fee but up till now no response. Going by other timelines I'm thinking we have up to 30 days (we are now @ Day 23) and praying for a successful response.

I'm worried about how long things are taking but leaving it to God. Thank you all for your advice and the support system you've all created on this forum - it has certainly kept my husband and I positive.

Any one experienced this long wait even though they paid priority??

ekpotek:
It simply means that you're unlikely to get the decision email within 15 working days. All you need to do is wait and start thinking of changing your travel plans.

Austinpee4:
This mail dey one kind! Was it a visa application abi job application for visa office?

Which embassy sent this?

justwise:
Be a man and deal with this and don't treat a woman you married and left in Nigeria for years like this.
