I do hope you have not booked a ticket as the UKBA advise that it can take up to 12 weeks to process an application.
I wish you the best of luck.

Good! Like Marco says, it can take up to 12 weeks. It varies so much.

No. I didnt say that. But it can be as long as 12 weeks. The quickest I heard of was 1 day. But that isnt normal.

Have you seen this? These are the statistics for June 2012 for Manila. 42% of all settlement visas were processed in 15 working days - ie 3 weeks. 85% took 40 working days - ie 8 weeks. So you can see that 3 weeks would be quite quick really.

http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/countries/philippines/processing-times/?langname=null#resultTableAnchor

Only 16% took 10 working days ie 2 weeks.

Yes. It is hard and plays on your mind. I would say, just be patient as you WILL find out soon enough. The time that it takes seems to have little bearing on the outcome. :xxgrinning--00xx3:

yes and they granted our visit visa last year because im only 20 years old at that time but when i back in the philippines last june and applied another visa they declined my application because they say i should apply spouse visa thats why english requirement is the documents that i dont have .. and when i receive the result after 1 week i applied spouse visa

I know how frustrating it is for both of you. The only thing we can do now :) is to wait and be positive.
