you should email it yourself. my friend who recently got his wife visa applied through solicitor and he was the one who always contacted ukvi directly instead of solicitor.
Hey! I did send a detailed email last night to sheffield home office. Hoping for a reply.
Will do a status check on friday, Insha'Allah.

Nothing yet zx, lets hope we hear something this week, you are right they can not disclose decision over the telephone or in emails s, the only thing we can do is to wait.

Insha'Allah!
See can the sponsor travel for 2-3 weeks once your case has been applied? And you get a holiday pay for the time off? Can anyone help?

Hi Scotgirl
I think you can as long as you are salaried because it wouldn't effect you monthly income but if you were non-salaried then you wouldn't get holiday pay!
wait is killing me and do not know when i will get sms/email response for passport collection.

Hey ZK!
I was thinking the same. But still need to double check it with my lawyer. This whole process is taking ages. Hopefully you get the email/sms very sooon, Insha'Allah. Atleast you know that the decision has been taken.

Hey! As far as I know, you can either appeal or re apply the case. You cant do both the thing at one time.
