Recent de-facto via applications - how long did it take?
Hi all
For those of you who have recently (past year or so) made an application for an unmarried partner to emigrate, can you advise how long it took to receive confirmation of the visa following submission to the Consulate in the UK, and how strict they were, if relevant? Just to give us an idea on the timescales we should be looking at.
We'll not be using a migration agent as we have a fairly easy case, but I'd be grateful for any feedback or thoughts? Thanks

We have just submitted our application, we received confirmation of receipt 5 days after receiving the application requesting me to complete a further form and to arrange an interview, I have been advised that the London Branch are quick and it takes 3 - 10 weeks, a friend also did this and advised processing was the quick part. sorry i can't tell you how long til receipt as i am still waiting but hope this helps - Good luck
