Urgent Help Needed.. Spouse Settlement visa

Post by SumitP » Fri Jan 29, 2016 9:45 am

Hello Everyone, Moderators,

I have applied for my wife's settlement dependent visa from India through VFS Pune on 27 Jan. Within two days we have received a mail confirming a decision has been made on her application and documents have been despatched to the application centre.

We expected the application to be sent to Mumbai but we have received mail from Delhi centre.

I understand we will know the result in next 2 - 3 days but this has got me worried. Has anyone come across a situation where dependent settlement visa was approved in 2 days? Or this was a straightforward rejection because I missed any documents? I have submitted below documents.

Can someone please help with any experiences or review of document list to see if I missed any obvious documents leading to rejection? Thank you.

Did you pay the immigration health surcharge of £600?

Suggest be patient and wait till you/spouse receive documents back.
