11 weeks..................still waiting!
it has now been 11 weeks since i sent off my spouse visa application and 5 weeks since i sent off the extra information they requested.
i know they state 4 months as the maximum processing time but i have not heard of anyone going anywhere near that for a front loaded application, not even with a normal application.
with all these spouse visa's going through in less than a week or in some cases the same day it is getting even more frustrating as we want to book flights and get on with our validation trip.
i have been waiting longer than the now famous anthony kirby.

Hang on in there WBB, & try & think about nice distracting things: e.g. how Wales are gonna thrash the English in the Triple Crown (well, one can dream......!)

Yeah, can relate to that. Was having far too many of those 'Visa Moments' for my own good, till I got mine. Not good....

It made me realise if it doesn't happen for me it will not be the end of the world.
Yes very, very, very disappointing but not the end of the world.
Your comment was one that helped me and I gotta repeat it back to you hoping it helps you:
Chin up monsieur WBB, you know everything happens for a reason, right ? Good will come of this mate.
