Forgive me as this query may well be repeated elsewhere, but can't find it on this forum - my asawa just had the following response to our visit visa application.

Your visa will be despatched shortly. Passports can normally be
collected from the Visa Application Centre after 3 days. Applicants in
Australia and New Zealand should allow 3 days before tracking their
documents via the local post. UKBA-Manila Visa Hub


Now, does anyone know for sure that this means what it seems to mean?

95% of threads I can find on the www seem to be very positive, however there are a few which say otherwise, and of course, I/we want to know ASAP and don't want to wait days for her passport etc..

Any input would be gratefully received!
