Hi all

Hi all
It has been 7 weeks now we have waited for my wife's visa
Is there any email contact I can send to make some enquiries as to why it is taking so long to hear from them?
My wife is really worried about this now and is asking me everyday, Why she don't hear from them yet
And to be honest with myself, it is beginning to worry me too.
Thank you ..

Hi Louis,
Yes, 7 weeks is quite a long and stressful wait. Many here will fully understand how you're both feeling

According to the UKBA page Guide to Processing Times Guide to Processing Times

The Philippines looks like this:-

15 days = 7%
40 days = 38%
60 days = 90%
90 days = 96%
120 days = 100%

So still good to remain positive

Hi Terpe
Thank you for your reply to my enquiries in regards as to why it is taking so long for my wife's visa
I think I see what you mean by this chart, the longer we wait to more it is a positive answer we may likely get about my wife's visa.
Is this what the chart means?

Not really.
It just means that:-
after 15 days since application then 7% of the total number of applications submitted have been processed and decided
after 40 days since application then 38% of total number of applications submitted have been processed and decided
after 60 days since application then 90% of total number of applications submitted have been processed and decided
after 90 days since application then 90% of total number of applications submitted have been processed and decided
after 120 days since application then ALL of total number of applications submitted have been processed and decided

Since you have been waiting 7 weeks (say 50 days) then based on UKBA past performace I would expect your decision to be made within a couple of weeks.

Hi Terpe
Thank you
I understand it much better now
I realised this just after I made my last post

In a. couple of weeks time, hmmmm
It's getting closer to that decision day soon then?
Wow, I'm so excited and nervous at the same time now.
We are praying for the right answer that we both need so much.

Wow it has been now 10 weeks that we wait for an answer from the visa team in the Philippines.
It is hard to be positive in moments like this.
God, what else can we do, but to wait and wait?
