Re: MERGED: Spouse Visa Issues with Sheffield +Spouse Visa Chat Thread.
OH! Wonder if it's a Hong Kong thing? I plan to go into the VFS HK centre on Monday to see if they've received my passport back and I'll keep you posted. I'm just a bit worried as UK Decision Making Centre has yet to send out a formalised email to me re. a decision has been made. Not sure if I should even expect it.
Let me know how it goes for you!

Congratulations.
I applied one week before you did, on 20/07. I hoping I get a good news soon.

Apparently a decision has been made on my application as of Thursday, 5th Oct (applying from Hong Kong, priority, bio: 28th Jul). Found out by emailing and calling UKVI, but to date, have not received any other formal decision made emails. Will be playing the waiting game until my passport arrives back into the country.
Will keep everyone posted.

I got a "not straightforward" email on 4th of October. Sucks
Don't know what to do?

Re: Sheffield Settlement Visa +90 Day Delays
Shot in the dark question for those regulars on here: Does there appear to be, generally speaking of course, shorter processing times for those from certain countries?
I'm applying from Canada and debating whether to pay priority of not. Any observations/advice would be welcome.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Rosy1910. So the follow up email/call is still through Sheffield? Or should we contact UKVI Bangkok directly?
Scanned documents (VFS Manila) were acknowledged and received at Sheffield 10May17.
Anyone else from Philippines who's been approved?

My advice is to get hold of VFS Manila and if possible try to find some contact in the British Embassy to Philippines and get them fight for you. That's what I did and it helped.
