kunash Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 hi all On the 13h July 2011, my wife and her two children applied for a settlement visa to come and live with me in the uk. Can you please add my name to your list of people waiting. (my wife did not have the court issued por kor 14 for her daughter. we knew this. so submitting the application was a risk. we have a valid ampur issued por kor 14 ( temporary paper), we went to the courts last monday and were awarded a full por kor 14. however it cannot be issued until one month has passed, so we could not submit it in our application. we did submit court papers saying this. the vfs global man was happy with our papers - but of course, he is just an agent, - he did say it would be up to the eco. as i said, it is a risk. so fingers crossed ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leafmould Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 (edited) hi guys me and the missus are down on Koh Phangan at the moment and got the text message on wednesday " your application has been been proccessed and passport sent to you by courier" (to chiang mai) wonderful but is it good news? we could only get back by saturday as everything is booked out and courier is closed until monday! so we called the couriers and gave her details and low and behold they opened it and read it for us- bingo, success. changing my flight back and booking flights for her right now. good luck to the rest o you guys and sad to hear about Brynpugh, hope the appeal is swift and successful Edited July 14, 2011 by leafmould Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keith 1 Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 Hello everyone, I have never posted on here before but have been reading and studying the waiting times like a lot of other people nearly everyday. My wife and I applied for a settlement visa on the 20th May and looking at the waiting times I was expecting an 11 week wait. Today after exactly 8 weeks Nittaya received the sms and collected her visa today. She has already booked the flight to arrive in LHR on Sunday evening. God know’s how I will have time to clean the house before then! So hopefully good news for everybody as the waiting time has suddenly crashed. The hopeful date we put on the application went weeks ago so that was nothing to do with the quick visa. In case anybody is wondering if I did anything differently then the answer would probably be no and actually probably less than a lot of applicants. Nittaya had been in England for 4 and a half months before we both flew back to BKK and got married and also she had been in England for 6 weeks over Christmas so we did not have many e-mails etc as evidence. We submitted about 20 pictures, 40-50 old e-mails, the usual telephone bills etc and one A4 letter from me. All basic and to the point. I just wanted to write, say thank you to everyone who posts on here as it has been a big help and try to give a little something back. Thank you.

We put in on the 20th of May and had a phone interview 2 weeks later and heard nothing since. You would think it'd be done in order of submission though as 7by7 has pointed out to me sometimes I suppose they wait for information from a third party of sorts. Don't worry as the last three apps seem to have been running in sync. You and me next week for sure with a big yesssssssssssss ! Good Luck fella !

aland2012 Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 The 8 weeks sounds great to me but like you say, it might take the full 12 weeks .

all4one Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Alan and GeordiePhil - are you guys in Thailand or are you waiting in UK ? I'm just behind you in the queue so I'm hoping for the week after- I can honestly say the wait has been a awful, had so many unnecessary rows on the phone with the missus about nothing, we keep saying if we can get through these few weeks it will be all down hill I only hope we're right :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
