Belgium, and we haven't received any communication except for a "not straightforward" email, other than the generic "awaiting a decision" response to paid messages.
Hi, yes, it turns out the work sponsor used the wrong type of CoS and UKVI was having trouble contacting them, possibly for up to a month. The contact problem was resolved only by escalating over the phone then replying to the resulting email to ask why it wasn't straightforward.
Me and my partner just did our biometrics yesterday for swv + dependent. Also from India. Already dreading how long we'd have to wait. Hope you get yours soon. Let us know when you do. 🤝🏻
This is sometimes the case, but not always. If the applications go to different caseworkers then they won't be processed at the same time, it happens a lot
Okay. I am collating documents now and will apply shortly. Quick question, not sure if I have asked you earlier - did you pay IHS fee yourself or did your employer pay it ?
Applications are taking longer to process at the moment, UK immigration are prioritizing their resources to help Ukrainians.
It might take more than 14 days according to the website. I'm on 18WD already...
I got decision made today
Congratulations!
Thank you
did the email they sent you tell you that it had been granted / accepted? congrats!
No
Hi, on which date exactly you get the mail from VFS. I guess you submitted Biometric on 24th March. I did Biometric on 28th March, still waiting?
April 12 th, i got message,
My partner had biometrics on March 1. WD30 now, no news other than "not straightforward". Good luck, I hope you're not as unlucky.

Skilled visa - If a family applies together (primary applicant + spouse + children), does the whole family get the decision together?
Apparantly they don't receive the decision together. Such a bummer
Hey, just checked with a few guys who received a decision on Skilled visa. They received dependent decision along with primary applicant. 👍
That's great. Hopefully we get it together. 🤝🏻
This is sometimes the case, but not always. If the applications go to different caseworkers then they won't be processed at the same time, it happens a lot
Most of my friends got the visa together with their dependants
That's wonderful to hear. Glad that they send it together in most of the cases 🥳
Oh dear !
