Where were the applications submitted? It's good to hear they are moving forward as with eid the latest application was from early may. I assume this is from facebook if you could continue to update here on the other applications it would be appreciated.

That is indeed good news. Is this trend of getting back to mid may applicants specific to Isb VAC or can us Lahoris hope too?
Its isb at the moment but anyone before 12th may has had a delayed email and people after that have been granted visas, really weird, but inshallah defo all may applicants should know by august

I don't understand Docs + Biometrics of my wife were submitted on 15/07/15 at Lahore and hasn't received any email that BHC Islamabad has received them. Everyone else here seems to have received an email the next day or something that BHC Islamabad has received them. Do I assume they were received the next day once they were submitted in Lahore.
Please help.[/quote]

Have you emailed ukvi and asked them? They should be able to tell you as you are not asking about the update this soon but just the fact whether the BHC received them or not[/quote]

Thank you will try.[/quote]

Did you not send your docs to Sheffield UK address as after 6th July all applicants were meant to send docs to Sheffield. Only supporting docs. Passport and biometrics still done in your local centre.
A lot of people have complained about not receiving this mail and most of these guys are after 6th July. I am not sure could be wrong too!!!

I hope you hear news soon & Allah SWT make this process easier for you and others.

No my online submission was 30th June and the appointment at Lahore was booked for 15th July so it was before the new policy was put in place. Anyone who had submitted them online before that date and set an appointment had to still go to Lahore.

Too late, you have already sent it. But it all depends if your 12 weeks have lapsed or not. By emailing them twice in 2 days you will get the same reply most probably. I say wait a few more days
