Biometric Appointment (Islamabad) : 26/11/2021

Will keep updated. We tried for Priority Visa and multiple sources informed us that it’s been suspended in Pakistan.

Let the agonising wait commence…

Emailed UKVI via the UK Gov website today, as it’s been 12 weeks since the biometrics appointment with no result bar an email on the 6th January stating that the application is being considered.

Emailed via the paid service at UK time 12.59pm. Received a reply just over an hour later at 2.07pm.

Email states that a decision has been made and “ Please allow 10 working days for the visa application centre to contact you in regards to collection or delivery of your passport.”

Will keep you guys updated on any further developments.
