Hello so we put our spouse application in march ore covid been 19 weeks we have just had a text from ukvi to say decison has been made and my wife will recieved decison soon im abit worried as noone has contacted my employer i provided contract of employmnet letter from work wage slips etc but was told they still contact employer can anyone help as im worried sick
I have had 2 visas processed, fiancée and 1st FLR. Now onto 2nd FLR and so far never contacted employer, I think they want it incase they feel they need to contact them.
Dont worry, on my first spouse visa application one of the refusal reasons was the following "You have enclosed a letter from your employer, which doesnt seem to be from your employer" it was from my employer but they didnt contact my employer to verify anything..
The first thing they will look for is the company registered ( normally found on letter headed paper) they will probably look if it's vat registered they will probably look at your pay slips,tax code, NI number and if all that looks good it probably satisfies them they won't need to go further! Good luck with the decision
Once you have given them the Employer's letter, on Company headed paper, they do not, usually, contact the employer, unless a severe discrepancy is noted. Or the letter is way out of date. I have gone through the various stages Of EU family permits, residence cards, and permanent residence card, plus lately the Full Settled status, with no hitches at all. On one occasion, I had the whole pack of documents returned, because the Birth Certificates were copies and not the originals. As soon the originals were received, the residence card was issued within 2 weeks. And all bumf returned.
It was a few years ago now but my employer was always hard to catch hold of as he was so busy. So I typed the letter up on headed paper, thrust a pen in his hand when he walked in the door and got him to sign. I then stamped it with the company stamp. I asked him later and nobody ever contacted him.
hi mate, My wife got a similiar text yesterday that a decision has been made and we should receive her passport by courier as we opted for the silver package at vfs Global. We submitted our visa Feb 2 . I had a feeling that we would get an answer soon as the british embassy said they would be dealing with previous visa applications before they deal with new applications. I Wish you luck with your application and pray both our applications are a success.
please be sure to share your successes with us here. We havent opened the champagne for quite a while now!
