    They always use 2GO. I think you can track your docs using the GWF that VFS gave you when you submit the docs.

    I didnt try mine but when i called 2GO they gave me the tracking number and the man said that i can track it with the number that the VFS gave me. Try to call 2GO and ask for your tracking number. You just need to give them applicant's name and dont forget to tell them its UK visa application.

    Hi, I'm new here. Though I'm a Kiwi/Brit and my wife's Indonesian (I grew up in NZ and met my wife nearly 10 years ago), I too was curious to try and make sense of the rather unhelpful email update I received, copy below. While we're hopeful of the outcome and the general consensus is that things are looking positive, nothing's confirmed until we get further correspondence and eventually the passport back - hopefully with a visa affixed to one of the pages inside... I can sort of understand why the UK government make it tough, but it's unfair on those legitimately wanting to come here to live and work. Especially when the government's breaking up families or couples, young/new or old/established and it costs so much! I'm already established here in the UK, working etc since mid-September, but haven't had the company of my wife for over 4 months - hardly fair at all. Anyway, I might post the result if/when we get it).

    Yes I could go on for hours about how unfair all of it is but I guess thats life in general.
    It looks like a pass for you :)
    I know how you feel, until you actually have it in your hand you won't fully believe it!!
    But relax!!!!!! That reference number is your VAF number on your visa.
    Time to party with your wife :)

    Well, the visa came without much of a wait - we're pretty happy and can breathe a bit now. It arrived by courier three days after the "your decision will be despatched" email - no information about coming to the UK was included and interestingly we were given no courier tracking number beforehand, though I don't know if we were supposed to be given one. The reference number in the email also matched the visa's VAF number.
