4 months....its a very long time., why did they take 4 months to reply? Does UAE usually take that long? My Visa office is Abu Dhabi and im worried sick now. going on apply in few days.

@MM345
The OP would not know why processing took 4 months in his case unless he orders GCMS notes.

Possible reasons: Background checks.... or maybe the visa office sought some information from his home country (for any reason from employment to bank details to previous travel history). These are only guesses.

Not all TRV applications get delayed like this. So try not to worry before/after you submit your spouse's application. Processing has to run its course
