    Anyone here waiting for more than 9 weeks for their spouse visa application???

    Just thought of asking this because I learned that as of September 01 visa applications lodged from July 11-18 are the ones being processed by the British Embassy.

    I hope that I get the good news on my spouse visa application in 3 weeks time.

    It must be really frustrating! Keep cool.
    There may be a surge of applications and also its the holiday period (UK staff may be on leave for summer).

    Best Wishes,

    ManilaVisaEnquires@fco.gov.uk is the best one to use, but they usually take 2 or 3 days to reply.

    sis, any news on your visa application? it's your 11th week of waiting already, right?

    why is it taking the embassy more than 10 weeks now to process the settlement visa application????

    me and you both you never know menchkin, you might not wait that long. lets just keep our faith and trust in HIM that in the end it will be a positive result.
    the only thing is they might still ask for an interview after letting you wait so long

    I really thought that since summer time in UK is over that the busyness of visa application would somehow be lessen. but why is the opposite happening????
