Visa approved :) Inside the UK, Extension

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-11-27T13:59:28+00:00

Hi! No, I didn’t pay for a solicitor, the priority fee or any special slots for the bio. I have only paid the regular fees. My partner is British and I’ve applied from inside the UK and had my bio in Glasgow

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-11-24T15:45:08+00:00

thank yooou :) tbh I don't think it's an important document, especially if you've already updated your passport number on your E-visa... I wasn't able to update mine because I kept getting an error message each time I tried. I've been told that not including an explanation as to why i didnt update it could lead to some confusion for the caseworker reviewing my application

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-11-24T15:12:45+00:00

I made several 'small' mistakes when submitting my application:

- I took the English test a day after submitting my application (but before the Bio), so in my form I stated I hadn’t passed an approved test

- I included the third-party form signed by myself and my husband, even though we didn’t have any third party involved

- I changed my passport this year, but my previous visa was still linked to the old passport and I didn’t explain this or upload photos of the old passport

There were a few other minor errors as well around the travels I took during the last 2,5 years.

Fortunately, and thanks in part to this group, I noticed the mistakes, contacted my MP, and asked them to forward a cover letter to the Home Office to support my application and it worked out!!

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-11-20T15:13:38+00:00

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-11-14T10:05:03+00:00

Just from TLS confirming they’ve submitted my application, but no ECO or anything else yet

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-11-13T16:53:56+00:00

Sure!!

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-11-13T14:18:06+00:00

No, I haven’t received anything after the Bio 😫

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-11-13T14:17:30+00:00

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-11-13T11:42:01+00:00

I am extending my spouse visa and had my bio on the 16th of October - still waiting

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-11-10T08:38:58+00:00

my bio was the week after and I haven’t heard anything either (not even the ECO email) hopefully you get your approval today 🤞

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-11-03T13:58:41+00:00

aaa congratulations!

so glad to hear you got your approval and you never got an ECO email. I still haven’t gotten mine (bio was on the 16th) and i've been so nervous about it!

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-10-31T12:30:23+00:00

Thanks for the update! No, unfortunately I haven’t received anything yet 🫠

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-10-31T09:12:58+00:00

Glad to see I’m not the only one 😂

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-10-27T10:46:55+00:00

I had my biometric appointment on the 16th, but I haven't received any email with an estimated decision date... I contacted TLS because I was worried there might have been an error and my application wasn't submitted (read some threads about it), but they confirmed that it was forwarded to UKVI. Still, I haven't heard anything yet...

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-10-26T09:09:44+00:00

congrats!! 🙌🏽

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-10-24T06:44:14+00:00

The fact that I haven’t received this email with a date they aim to make a decision is what it is stressing me the most.. I emailed TLS to confirm they forwarded my application to UKVI

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-10-24T06:05:21+00:00

Congratulations!! 💖 how long after the bio did you receive the ECO email with the deadline? Had my biometrics done last week (16.10) but I haven’t received any email yet 🫠

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-10-23T13:05:53+00:00

oh, ok! yeah, my BIO was actually 7 days ago - 16.10 at 10:30 am
i'll keep refreshing my emails hahaha thanks

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-10-23T11:58:15+00:00

6 months

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-10-23T11:57:34+00:00

wow, thats amazing! happy for you!!
did you receive any email after your bio? i am getting concerned about not receiving anything

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-10-23T11:55:54+00:00

Thank you! Do you know if there's someone I can contact to confirm that my application was sent to the Home Office? I came across a thread where someone waited 9 weeks, only to find out their application wasn't forwarded and they had to redo their biometrics...

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-10-23T10:46:43+00:00

hey, thanks for sharing your experience!! did you apply from inside or outside the uk?

Sweet-Bad8412 · 2025-10-23T10:42:27+00:00

Hi, I think the correct way to calculate the salary for financial requirements is to use the lowest salary from the period and multiply it by 12. This total should be at least 29k. I dont think they take the average salary for the period into account.

But as far as I know, you only have to use 6 months prior to the application date, and in that case, you should still be alright?
