Uk Settlement


Recommended Posts

Thanks everybody and thumbs up too for Fiend and PeterH ( Note: if there are any other 'lurkers' out there, join in, its much more fun and it might mean ajsp gets off the bottom of the list :D ). Sumrit your prediction was close enough for me, as they say nobody gets fired for delivering ahead of schedule :D .

Spoke to the Mrs and she knows less than what I do :) . Still she had a good day out at Big C. As mentioned, she has asked for the application to be forwarded to her friend's house in Bangkok. So, back to the waiting game. Don't know whether it will be sent via Courier? Do posties work on Saturday? Feels like Monday......which should be the day we say Cheerio to Chew, Sumrit and FF.

Have a good weekend.

excellent result tick tock, made up for you and your mrs and everybody else that results this week, COME ON the rest of march, please get your visa's so we can start on april's. again well done all that got visa's this week. PEACE AND LIGHT TO ONE AND ALL, :D:D

Goodness ive been reading the posts again from when the topic started , its such a long time ago and how wrong we were in thinking 4-6 weeks would be an average waiting time.

Chewy i know of someone who had there application refused because they had recently lost there job and was at that time claiming benefits. Im not sure you are in the same boat as you are self employed and not reliable on state hand outs so chin up mate and think positive we are all rooting for you and the mrs. :)

Just been onto the VFS fruit machine and our application is saying "Application Collected" - submitted on 30/03. Nearly choked on my boiled egg. I need to speak to the Mrs ( I'm UK based), as the App was due to posted to her friend in BKK. Got to rush off to Leamington Spa, of all places now, so I'll check back in after lunch with an update.

Apologies if I've done an 'Italian' and barged in on some of the seniors.

congratulations are in order the fiend and tick tock

all the best to you and your mrs.

Could not agree more my non feathered friend. :D I've def lost the plot ....do you know what was going through my head today? The VFS is now saying "Application Collected". But we asked for it to be sent to the Mrs' friend so why 'collected', should it not say 'despatched'? Then I start thinking who has collected the visa? Is this a bloody admin cock up? Also, I've checked my APET number 6 times today after getting a thumbs up just to re-assure myself that I was getting a consistent result.

My Doctor has said I've got 'checksettlementpostiitis' and unfortunately it is untreatable.

Chew, for what it is worth, I agree with Roly.

Just landed in from work.... and guess what?... there's 5 people reading the thread - 555555555l!!!!!!

Got the flights booked and got some time off work booked as well....... Going to be off work for 2 weeks after Mrs Fiend arrives in the UK, so she can get settled in.....

Now I think the only thing we have got left to organise is an export license for her Buddha....... :D

Thanks for the support and best wishes everybody........ I'll hang around to give everybody some support and advice where needed.

But you got a good excuse... you're a super mod, and are keeping a well trained eye on the unruly rabble in here! :D

There's one good thing about us brits....... we know how to for a nice orderly queue...... One person once remarked to me.... "us brits, we go and find a queue, and then we go and stand in it"

Now that all the worry about the visa is over , I've just had my first decent nights sleep for about 6 weeks....... and it's not long before I'll be snuggled up in bed with the wife, and those legendary words like "Don't forget na , send money na" will be a thing of the past! :D

Both Jamesbones and Johndoarung from the February applications have not been online since April, so I think we can assume they have them but failed to update us.

No problem I will take them off the list, cheers M8

Update - spoke to the Mrs today. The Embassy rejected our Settelement Visa application. Absolutely SHOCKED. I've just had the forms faxed through and the reason for the rejection was that evidence could not be provided to assure that there would be no re-course to public funds.

I'm not a rich man but I can't get my head round this and I think they have made a mistake. I'd be interested in your views on this. I'm in full time employment and have been all my life. I earn approximately £111,000 per annum (all evidence supplied, been with the company since Feb 2008) and the bank account is in credit to the tune of about £15k. I don't have any debts. So I can't understand what is going on here.

My only way of rationalising this is that in early June the Mrs. was asked to fax through my bank statements (included in original application), passport again and also for the Mrs to send through a pregnancy certificate. I tried to send the fax on Saturday/Sunday but could not get a transmission. I sent an email to the Embassy on Monday informing them of this and got an email back saying Fax now working.

I subsequently sent 18 pages via Fax and got a successful message 'OK' documents sent. I even sent an email to the Embassy saying just faxed now. Did not get a reply.

I can only assume that the faxes have not been associated to my application and as evidence has 'not been supplied' I've got resultant rejection. Forum members - help me out here, I can't think of anything else? Devastated.
