Re: MERGED: Spouse Visa Issues with Sheffield +Spouse Visa Chat Thread.
Yeah. I didn’t see anyone from other countries waiting who applied before April. I’m from India, waiting since December. Probably ECO handling our application is slower than turtle. He’s definitely trying our patience beyond all limits. 😢 I wonder if he has slightest idea how important Diwali is for us! Will be away from whole family on that auspicious ocassion too... Damn frustrating!!
India wasn't mentioned as one but might be too far behind.

Hi
I joined the 'I love my spouse' group on facebook.
A well informed source on there seems to be helping make sense and give advice to a lot of people.
I do not know her background but join the group and you can see she receives quite a lot of praise.

Where did you see this? I believe there is something behind that comment you made (some truth in it) because it seems like those countries are forever waiting. Do you have a link?

Hi,
Has anyone been asked to provide evidence that their partner/spouse is a British Citizen? I'm asking this as when we received the "your application is not straightforward email", we also received another one asking to supply a scanned copy of my passport page (British Citizen). In the application we'd provided all of my details including passport number, date of birth and everything required and we still cannot see anywhere where it asks for scanned copies etc.
We're currently on day 86 and after it taking them 2 weeks to reply saying thanks for sending the additional documents, they then said it had been escalated and it would take a further 15 working days for a direct response. As my wife hadn't heard anything on day 16 after this, she emailed back asking whether it had been escalated and asking for confirmation. The response was a standard it's waiting to be processed and if you'd supplied everything which was needed it wouldn't be taking so long.
We did and so that's why I ask if anyone else had to submit additional proof that the partner is a British Citizen aside from what was required on the application?

We included a copy of my passport information page. I don't remember why, but we thought that was needed. I probably got it off this forum, as it was much more useful than the UKVI guidelines.
