Applied on 2nd May, 2019 along with my wife and daughter. Got the "application not straightforward" e-mail on the 19th. Received the issued e-mail on 21st and got the call to collect passport today. 10 year visa issued. My primary reason for this application was the cricket world cup. Had two previous five year visas so thought of applying for 10 years this time, given that there wasn't a lot of difference in the fees.

That is different I think. The emails I got were the one from.abu Dhabi. Haven't received anything from VFS.

Just a quick update
Issue email = visa approved
Confirming trend.
Also it's such a big relief to read this thread in such a anxious time when we wait for decision.
Thanks all.

Hi Guys,

I have received the following email for a visit visa application. Any idea/experiences of what this means:

[PLEASE DO NOT REPLY TO THIS MESSAGE. THIS MAILBOX IS NOT MONITORED.

Your UK visa application is currently under consideration at the British Embassy Abu Dhabi.

Unfortunately the processing of your application has not been straightforward. This means that we will be unable to make a decision within our published customer service standards.

We will notify you when your application has been concluded, and you will be contacted by the Visa Application Centre when your documents are ready for collection. Please do not go to the Visa Application Centre before they have contacted you.

Please avoid making travel arrangements until you have collected your passport.

We would be grateful if you could keep your correspondence to a minimum during the consideration process. If however you need to contact us or would like to track the progress of your application, you can do so via our International Enquiry Service at www.gov.uk/contact-ukvi-outside-uk.

Important note: If you have purchased the ‘Keep My Passport When Applying’ service from VFS, please ignore this email. You will shortly receive separate instructions on re-submitting your passport.

Kind regards,

UK Visas and Immigration
British Embassy Abu Dhabi
www.gov.uk/ukvi
----

Any information will be appreciated.
It means simply they will take some time to decide your application nothing to worry about.Either they will verify your documents or something else if they verify documents it takes longer verification takes some time.
In that case be patient and nothing much you can do but wait Decision will come sooner or later eventually hopy good In Sha Allah.

Dear Bhatti sb,

I hope to have you in good health....
Thanks for all support in the thread

I can assure you guys from experience these things
Issued=Visa granted
Concluded=Refused
I have seen three visa applications accepted after the issued mail and three visa applications refused after the concluded mail so I am pretty sure tgis is true.

Hi,

Can anyone guide me how you did the self uploading of documents in the UK Visitor Visa application? I'm applying from Dubai and I'm quite unsure about self uploading the supporting documents. Thanks!

Hi All,

I have been reading this post and it was very helpful. I thought to share my experience, it might be helpful.

My mother collected her 2 years visit VISA today. She received following two emails and one sms:

VISA Application Date: 14 May 2019

Email Date: 23 May 2019
Your UK visa application has been issued. (Email from British embassy Abu Dhabi)

SMS Date: 28 May 2019
The processedvisa application for GWFxxxxxxxx was received on 5/28/2019. (SMS from Visa Application Centre)

Email Date: 29 May 2019 (Collected same day)
We would like to confirm that your concluded application has arrived at UK Visa Application centre and is ready for collection. (Email from Visa Application Centre)

So one further example with confirmation that if issued email is recieved then it means VISA application is approved.

Thanks All

I am not sure if you are referring my message, but just to clarify that my mother applied for VISA only and not me.

"Issued" email was received from British embassy Abu Dhabi and "Concluded" email was received from UK VISA Application Center, Pakistan.

Hi. I did receive my passport with the visa.

Actually, a funny story. I received my issued email on 21st May but did not get any call. Being a little impatient, I went to VFS Lahore on 24th, and told them I am here to collect my passport. They asked me if I have received a call, and I lied "Yes". And they gave me my passport.

Not sure if it will work for everyone or is advisable, but if you are impatient like me, worth a try.
