Assalamoalekum to all
I'm really surprised and shock to see that people are not getting their court hearing dates.
Well after hope from Almighy Allah the only hope left for me is from the judicial system of this country but it looks like that it's not even working properly as well seeing that still waiting deadline is almost days away and she's still waiting for a court date.
Remember me in your prayers and I'll also remember everyone in my every single prayers.
Keep us updated with your spouse visa applications/ appeals.
Good luck to everyone.
1st Visa Application 20 12 2013
1st Visa Refusal 05 06 2014
2nd Visa Application 20 March 2015

Appealed 26 06 2015

Review takes up 6-8 weeks if successful if not thn will go to court.
But I believe all the November deadlines got their review decisions and now it's time for December deadline and hope fully Asif_sharif would be the next one who will get his updates.

You are correct but for both you guys who have their decision in December a quicker way to find out about your appeal decision is to phone the courts OK a Tuesday and Friday as they will have a response before you get the letter which is normally a week later, please keep us updated as I am a week after both of you. Inshallah we will all get good news
