Visit visa waiting time

Hello fellow members,

Quick one here basically I have applied for a visit C type visa for my mum from Irish consulate in Pakistan.It's been 5 weeks now & I am checking the inis visa decisions on a weekly basis but there is no sign of any decision.

Also I need to confirm when the Irish consulate took the visa documents they never took my mum's passport , so I am not sure how this works now because I was in assumption that the entire case documents including passport is being sent to Dublin where they make the decision & put on the visa sticker & send it back to consulate, so I am bit worried now.

Anychance can someone please shed some light on it.

Many thanks

Hi, the visit visa will take about 8 weeks, so hope for the best in the next 2 or 3 weeks.

Next, could u confirm what do u mean by "Also I need to confirm when the Irish consulate took the visa documents they never took my mum's passport" ?

The consulate will send the supporting docs to irish embassy in India or to Dublin for decision and the passport will stay in Karachi. If approved the Karachi Consulate will patch the visa sticker on the passport. This is confirmed to me by the Immigration Officer on Dublin airport. He was a pleasant gentleman and he gave me this information. Hope this will help.

My grand-dad applied from visit visa from India, it took about 2 weeks and he recieved 30 days non-extendable visit visa to Ireland.
We submitted following at Irish embassy in India:
His passport
His flight ticket
His travel insurance
His hotel booking
His bank statement
Letter from myself that I am working in Ireland and copy of my GNIB card.

Hopefully your family member should receive visa soon.

Thank you guys for your input I really appreciate it.
