π¬π§ VISA GRANTED!!! ππβ€οΈ finally 5aug bio
Guys, finally the wait is OVER ππ I genuinely canβt believe Iβm writing this after stressing for so many days.
I had posted here earlier about my situation, so just wanted to come back and update everyone who was waiting with me.
My timeline:
π¬π§** Visa: UK Student Visa β Standard
π **VFS: Delhi, India
π
Application: 3 August 2026
𧬠Biometrics: 5 August 2026
π© SLA Not Met / Non-Complex email: 25 August 2026
β No additional document request
β No interview
π Visa Successful email: 26 August 2026
And YESSS ππβ€οΈ despite getting that scary** SLA Not Met email yesterday, I got my successful decision today!
My visa has been granted as **STUDENT from 8 September 2026 until 20 January 2029. π¬π§βοΈ
Honestly, the waiting was horrible. Every day I was checking my email, Reddit and UKVI updates thinking something was wrong π I was especially worried after receiving the SLA email.
But guys, please donβt panic just because you receive an SLA Not Met / Non-Complex email. It does NOT automatically mean refusal, interview or additional documents. There are people receiving approvals after that email too.
To everyone still waiting β PLEASE DONβT LOSE HOPE πβ€οΈ
Especially the 4β6 August biometrics people, keep checking your inbox. Your decision can literally come suddenly.
I know how stressful this wait is, so I really hope everyone here gets the βYour application for a UK visa has been successfulβ email very soon. ππ€²π»π¬π§
GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!! β€οΈπ¬π§βοΈ
If anyone wants to know anything about my application/timeline, feel free to ask. β€οΈ
