Processed Visa/Visa Application! Which? [Archive]

James Hubbard

21st July 2010, 12:32

So my wife got an email today from VFS saying

Your processed visa application reference no. ************ dispatched to you via 2GO Aboitiz on 07/21/2010

Due to bad grammar, I am not sure whether to be excited or nervous! lol!

Is it

a) Your Processed Visa - Application ref number (Which would mean it's approved)

b) Your Processed Visa Application. Reference Number (Which could mean either Yes or No)

or

c) Something else.

Many Thanks

James Hubbard.

James ... :rolleyes: if my memory serves me correctly, the wording reads: "Processed Passport returned [either] via or through courier". Relax ... it (generally) presages a successful outcome. Keep us updated, my friend.

Hi arthur, is that the same as

"Your processed visa application reference no. ************ dispatched to you via 2GO Aboitiz on 07/21/2010"

????

i really hope it means a successful outcome, as we poured our hearts into this application process!

Yes ... no worries ... I'm 99.9 percent sure it IS a positive result! :) As I implied, it's a while ago since Myrna received HER text, and therefore I cannot remember the EXACT wording. It seems to be standard language for the Embassy to use ... although why they can't simply notify applicants of the ACTUAL outcome - i.e., yea or nay in the text - is beyond me ... and remains one of life's mysteries! :doh

So yes, my wife hasn't yet received her passport.

For all of you Filipina wives here who got your Spousal Visa, ... how long did you wait from the time when the text "your processed visa has been dispatched" until you got it? 2 days or more?

Also ... she's in Negros Oriental... Anyone know how long a courier takes to get it from Manila to Neg-Or?

Many thanks to all and any who can help

James.

It usually takes a day only in manila. But in your wife's case, since she's in negros oriental, it might take longer but should not go over 5 days. Perhaps she'll have her passport in her hands by monday.:xxgrinning--00xx3:
Congratulations in advance!

Hey Jim,

I would think that just means the visa application is processed and ready for somebody to decide yay or nay over it, and that everything is complete and somebody went over it and is happy everything is there..

Though as I have read here many times, visas can take days, weeks or months before a decision is made. And I know that until you get that confirmation you will be climbing the walls waiting for it:rolleyes:

So, I wish you good luck with the application and hope your wife is with you in the UK asap:xxgrinning--00xx3:

Congrats in Advance:xxgrinning--00xx3::)

James Hubbard

23rd July 2010, 21:07

Thanks Sean and S_N_V for your words! :)

Sean, I think that the words to the effect of "dispatched and couriered" mean that it's already been fully processed and the decision has been made, they're just not telling til Mrs Hubbard gets her passport back.

S_N_V ...I wish i was as confident in it as you were lolz! Lets hope it comes tomorrow, otherwise it'll be a fairly anxious weekend lolz!
