My husband's has been submitted for almost 3 weeks now & no sign of it yet :(.
I've seen people who submitted after us & they've already recieved there's back.. Happy for them but kind of un-fair :(.

I think we are in same situation. I also applied in june 2013 and never heard from them and went to mp and told me the same interview que. I think we are few unluck whos files got stuck in islamabad and didnt go to london. People who applied year later there spouses already been here. This is pure bs and not fair. Anyways may Allah help us.

Did you people order note or sent voluntarily proof of relationship? I advice you to mail to visa office about case update and send some additional proof of relationship..... Don't waste time just sitting and wait ...mail to visa office....

No there won't be an interview. If they wanted to interview you they would have done so before changing your status to 'decision made' & before giving you your PPR.

& as for the answer to how long it takes for passport to be returned to the applicant.. I'm still looking for an answer to that question myself.
But from what i've seen on the forum.. It can take from a couple of days to weeks.
My husband's been waiting for his passport to be returned for almost 3 weeks now.
