Hi Joppa, one additional question on point 6...

The UK Visa site says the following:
'Your biometric confirmation receipt will be stamped at your appointment. You then have 5 days to post this, your application form, your passport and supporting documents to UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI). All applications must be accompanied by a valid passport with at least one page without any endorsements. If the application arrives at the decision making centre without a passport the application will be refused.'

If I have to send my documents to England first, and then have my wife send the documents to sheffield, I'm afraid that it will take too long with international shipments and we will be past the '5' day period.

What do you think?

Most people have there UK spouse send their documents to the US and then once you have submitted biometrics you send everything to Sheffield. It's fine if you want to send your documents to the UK for your spouse to send but you should use one of the private couriers like FedEx or UPS to ensure that your documents arrive in time for a quick turnaround.

It doesn't have to arrive in 5 days, it has to be posted in 5 days.
