Hi everyone was just going to share some good news that a couple of friends of Rhea & myself got.
Adrain is from Carrickfergus here in N.Ireland and got married to a friend of Rheas in December and only last tuesday 21st Feb did they hand deliver their completed visa application to the ukvacs office. This should be an encouragement to all who are about to go through the settlement visa process but they got the visa through the post today which is one week from when they applied. Now that is fast!!

Be encouraged!!!

Just to add a little more info to this last post after speaking to Rhea i found out that the decision to give the couple the visa was actually decided after 4 days and then the letter was posted. When Faye opened the letter she did not realise straight away that it was actually the visa as she did not expect to hear anything for a while, then ukvac actually phoned her to make sure she received it ok.
Someone told her that the percentage of people to get a visa without going for an interview is around 40%
