Does this form letter mean that I didn't get the visa?
This is the only email I've received other than Sheffield notifying me that they have received my documents. I just got it today and it addresses me with "Dear Applicant" and not by my full name, I also don't have a reference number, just the GWF number. I'm a bit anxious. Here's the email:
Reference number: GWF0XXXXXX

No it doesn’t. You will be able to tell only when you get your documents back. Even the VAC does not know the decision until then.
This is a generic template to let you know that a decision has been made and the documents are ready for collection/dispatch. It does not indicate the outcome in any way.
