    Ji & Ma

    Apologies, no disrespect intended.
    Was aware waiting times had moved on, but didn't realise THAT long !

    .... but the point I was making, is that it's NOT a lottery or luck if your visa is
    granted but depends on how it's prepared & presented.

    A well thought-out & presented application is going to be less hassle to
    approve.
    It will "tick" all his boxes, so the ECO will not have to refer to higher command,
    hence resulting in even longer delays.

    Wish u all the best with your application.

    Yeah I see your point and agree - definitely it is better to be well prepared and supply all they need and something on top of it as well as it costs considerable amount of money, lots of time, few gray hairs and damaged nerves anyway - so you can't afford to make any blunders


    And - thank you very much- hope everything is going to be OK for us
    Jiri & Maricel

    its not true, i can tell you why, and you can check on here, when my wife got ilr it took 4wks, go and search on here for people who got ilr 2 yrs ago, you will find they all got it around 4wks give or take a day.. why because every app is in a queue, and when you got to the top of the pile, the app was decided there and then. and as 95% got it without a problem, so everyones app took 4wks. but since UKBA the system up, no one knows any more. and it use to take exactly 4wks for a long time

    whether your app was badly put together or not, it took 4wks for nearly everyone, sure you get a small number of borderline cases which will be passed on to someone senior, but being passed on, will having nothing to do with if your apps is well presented or not, it will be based on facts not presentation.

    it will not go to higher command because your app is not organised or you included every email you ever sent to each other, it will be passed on if its not straight forward, and that will be based on facts not looks .. your app will still be deicded in nearly the same am ount of time even if you tied it with a nice bow
