Default How long after decision made??

Hi, I have applied for my wife spouse visa on 6th of July 2018,
i did receive email from Sheffield HO that my case will take long as it is not straight forward
I called HO just before Christmas and they told me decision has been made and my documents will come shortly
10th of Jan I called HO again and than they told me something totally new that my case is awaiting decision, but when I told them before Christmas decision was made and now you telling me awaiting decision, they escalated the case and on 15th Jan I received email from HO that decision has been made and wait for the documents,
After that i didn't receive any update or my documents,
Does anyone know how long can it take for the passport to be return after the decision has been made, its just so frustrating,
Thank you

Hi, welcome to BE. I've moved your thread to our UK visas section, where you'll get some good advice, The Welcome Inn is really just a place to say hello.

I've also amended your thread title to make it more relevant so hopefully those in the know will see it and respond.

Good luck.

Anecdotally it can take several weeks. Have you contacted the VAC to check?

I only contacted UKVI center only, last week I have send them an email again asking for update, and they came back and said we will reply within 15 days, so I am still waiting, and these emails are not free either 🤔

You only have to pay once for the email, you just have to hit “reply” to their emails.

Angry Re: How long after decision made??

I have received a email from UKVI that
"With regards to your passport we have experienced some technical difficulties which we currently working to rectify"

I think they must have lost my passport ..
