Hey guys, I sent my passport to accra about three weeks ago. Just got an email from vfs that it's on the way back to me. However, my profile has not been updated with any decision yet. Is this normal?
Did you send your passport via the VFS office in Nigeria (I assume you are Nigerian) or you mailed it directly yourself to Accra?

Hi all, I’m a long-time follower of this forum. I bring good news! My Ghanaian husband just got his passport request (May 2021 applicant; outland spousal sponsorship)!! He’s been approved! No interview required!

A couple questions to the group…
  1. He needs to submit his passport at the Visa Application Centre in Accra. Do you need to make an appointment? (He’s going to call next week, but I was hoping someone here might know. We’re just so excited… bursting!)
  2. How long has it been taking for Ghanaians (in Ghana) to get their passport back? We’re trying to mentally prepare for our next steps.
Here’s our timeline:

May 12, 2021 AOR1
June 25, 2021 AOR2
July 2, 2021 Sponsor approval
July 28, 2021 Started processing application
Oct 12, 2021 – Medical request (but they forgot to include the attachment in the email! It took 3 weeks and a few calls to my MP’s office to get the attachment. No biometrics required because he had done them for a previous application)
Nov 3, 2021 – Medical completed.
Nov 15, 2021 – “Medical results have been received”
Then nothing, nothing, nothing until yesterday…
Mar 4, 2022 – email with pre-arrival letter, then the passport request email, one after the other!!

It was a long wait, but he is finally approved. With God, are things are possible!!
Congratulations

I totally share your frustration as well.
Myself, application was submitted in August 4th 2021. Medical completed on 13th January 2022, ADR on Feb 14th submitted 20th 2022. Received regular email to confirm that ADR was received on April 6th 2022.
I haven’t heard back from Accra office since then. The last time anyone mentioned an approval from Accra office here on this forum was on 5th May 2022.
Really confused about the whole thing as next month will mark one year since I submitted my application.

Hi, my application follows similar pattern as yours. Any news on your application?

I got three ghost updates on the 13th, 14th & 15th of July 2022 in the PR tracker. I guess Accra visa office has started to work on applications again, one can only hope.
What about yourself, any ghost updates as of late?
