How long should I wait for my DTV visa approval before contacting the authorities for an update?
My DTV has been on pending approval now for probably 5 days but it has been bank holidays and the weekend. How long would you leave it before contacting them for an update ? My wife is the main applicant then once hers is approved me (spouse) and 2 children will then apply. Didn't want to apply all together incase it got rejected and lose all the visa money cost. But also want to get them sorted before our visa runs out in Laos thanks

Various comments from the community offer advice on patience, the normal processing time, and how applications for dependents depend on the main applicant's approval.

Your DTV visa must be approved first before you can make applications for your dependents.
