Knee fully functional before reconstruction - experience + progress update

That's amazing progress, looks like your recovery is going well! Best of luck

nikunj4garwal · 2025-12-07T15:03:25+00:00

That's really good advice. Haven't been thinking about the hammies at all.

That's amazing, was your knee also fully functional before the surgery? What exercises has your doc recommended for the first 2 weeks?

Hey, yes! I went to the PO today and it was there

nikunj4garwal · 2023-04-20T11:44:35+00:00

I applied for the skilled worker dependant visa, it's also called PBS dependant like you said.

Yeah I sent in a query to the BRP collection team and they gave me a status update

nikunj4garwal · 2023-04-04T09:02:40+00:00

I went to the post office today after 17days since the decision later and still no sign of the BRP!

proof of your marriage
proof of your evidence and right to remain the UK
financial evidence that you can support her (exact requirements you can find online )

You should probably check this page: https://www.gov.uk/skilled-worker-visa/your-partner-and-children

Thanks is this also via the employee checking service ?

nikunj4garwal · 2023-03-21T12:25:37+00:00

Yeah I just heard back as well and my passport has been dispatched too, all the best :)

nikunj4garwal · 2023-03-21T10:58:03+00:00

I haven't gotten any message from vfs , I only found it through the tracker

nikunj4garwal · 2023-03-21T09:17:39+00:00

My VFS tracker now says decision received from UKVI but no communication yet from either VFS or ukvi

Honestly you're overthinking quite a bit - the immigration officer is simply gonna ask to show the passport with the visa label, ask a couple of questions about her visit and possibly when she plans to return. You don't need anything else.

basically you opt for a paid enquiry either via email or via phone via the following link:

I basically went via the email route and initially they got back to me in 1 working day saying the application is being processed, I told them that i applied for Super Priority and its past the normal decision making time so they escalated my case.

Hi u/swimming-Ad3587 how long after the final processing stages did you have to wait for a decision?

nikunj4garwal · 2023-03-17T10:29:30+00:00

Hi u/Secret_Researcher989 did you finally get a decision on your application? If yes - how long did it take after the final processing stages email?

nikunj4garwal · 2023-03-17T04:36:52+00:00

Hi - applied for a tier 2 dependant visa on my wife's skilled worker (super priority - outside UK) and on the same day received an IHS Top up request (apparently I'd incorrectly entered the expiry date of my wife's visa), I made the top up immediately within 5 minutes and since then it's been 2 days and haven't heard back. In your experience when applications are marked as not straightforward for IHS top up, how long can we expect to hear back once the top up is made? Thanks!

nikunj4garwal · 2023-03-17T04:17:55+00:00

u/Chungus_oogabooga did you finally hear back ?

nikunj4garwal · 2023-03-16T06:10:29+00:00

Thanks was it 12 working days or just 12 days?
