Tracking our Applications settlement UK

[matsky13]

Just wondered if anyone knows the sequence of events after an application for settlement . We submitted last week at the new Trendy building ( not as good as the old place as far as i am concerned ).

All my wife got was a printed till receipt saying acknowledgment of receipt the application number GWFXXXXXXXXX

her name and date of application and time the visa cattergory total payment £0.00 plus officers name .

she was given a seperate http track tailand post link address and a reference ( format eg (xx 1111 1111 1xx)) written in ink on the bottom of photocopy of her passport .

no APET number or anything else .

we have been waiting for an email or sms telling us that our docs have been posted to Embassy or something .

can anyone suggest what we do now ?

Thanks to all 140 odd of you for taking the time to read my post ,

In answer to my own Question for the benefit of anyone else inn the same boat .

I receieved emails from VFS

the first one saying the applications had been dispatched

the second one saying the applications had been forwarded to UKVI deccision making team .

The New office seems to have really seeded things up . according to the emails and the times on them our applications where "dispatched" and "forwarded" roughly 3 hours BEFORE we submitted them at the desk .

Now that's what i call service .
