I was reading this form for awhile and it was really helpful.

My timeline:
Online application: 5th July
Biometric and interview: 10th July
Same day I got a message that my application was forwarded to UKVI, no update after that regarding my Visa. Still waiting...

Thanks for your time to time update Mugatiya26, an others as well :D

Glad it helped. But sorry about your situation. :(

You wouldn't happen to have a contact number/email for VFS colombo right? I've been searching everywhere to no avail. I know calling them would also be useless but still...

Try sending them feedback using the customer experience link at the bottom of their page. I did the same and got a generic reply...your application is under process. They replied me from feedbackUKNepal@vfshelpline.com as I applied from Nepal.

They are still scanning and sending documents here at VFS Nepal too. I think for the time being the process has been changed only in India.

Calling VFS Colombo is totally useless and they haven't provided any contact details. What ever the issues we have we have to directly contact UKVI through paid service totally, even that's a waste of money.

I think only the thing we can do is wait.. but already frustrated waiting :( :evil:
