and what was the reason for refusal uddin?
the reason was the payslips they said they only got 3..but we sent 6 payslip. and they make mistake on the financial requirement..so it was there mistake.
so your telephone interview to you and your employer wasn't the reason for refusal and was accepted regardless?
as you was saying all your answers weren't correct on your telephone interview also
neither were mine not all i answered correct, so have been really worried
Insha Allah i hope should be ok though
no the telephone interview was fine..when did u apply? did they call ur employer?

yes they called my employer also
what i messed up on i said i work from 11 to 7
employer said 10 to 7
and i said i work sundays 11 to 5
employer said he works monday to fridays but he didn't mention sundays but HO didn't phsyically ask do i work sundays i guess
i work for my uncle its flexible hours sometimes i start 10 30 sometimes 10 some times 11 its our own family business so its flexible we don't really have a set hours shift for work but its roughly on average 11 to 7 so that's why i said it i was nervous and answering quickly
Apart from that everything else answered spot on

My biometrics was on the 4th january
got an email for UKIV 19th january that it's under review by an ECO
got the call from home office and so did my employer on 31st jan

I remember u making a thread saying on your phone interview u didn't answer all questions correctly what didn't u actually answer correctly?

Hello, I am Mohammed, am new to this to sorry in advance if i am not following any rules.

I applied on my wife`s behalf for her settlement visa to the U.K she lives in pakistan.
her bio-metrics were recieved at the local VFS office in karachi on the 31/10/2018

the 3 month waiting time was over on the 31/01/2019, and since I have rung the uk visas and immigrations department about 8 times. 2 weeks ago i rang them and they said the desicion has been made and your wife should expect an email with 10 working days. after 10 working days i rang them again to ask because we didnt receive any email, so the operator said that your application is under review...

QUESTION
1) once the decision has been made what does application under review mean ?
2) 3 months is over but i still havent received any email or nothing with regards to this?
3) i keep ringing them and now they have escalated the case what does this mean?
4) WHAT DO I DO ???????????

Its literally the worst thing in my life right now and my wife`s. If anyone can help me with my query i will be really grateful
You have already posted this question twice now and you have been answered twice (once by me)
And I can post it again, there are many other users that may relate to my case and come up with a better answer or new information that i am unaware of, so thanks for your reply and you can carry on counting how many times i post my questions... or not.

You have received advised from two members. Spamming the forum with multiple duplicate topics is not going to make your visa application get processed sooner or give you a different answer that you want to hear.

There is nothing you can do but wait. There are members posting in this thread that have been waiting for a year.

We don't work for HO (we are all unpaid volunteers on the forum) or have in-depth knowledge or details of their inner processes etc, the call centre is also outsourced and do not have access to your full case file. You simply have to wait to hear back from UKVI.

i dont appreciate your sarcastic tone, you may be `the moderator or whatever else that floats your boat` but dont think you can speak to people like that. I posted my question twice on this website with the sole purpose of receiving answers from the users. After all thats the entire purpose. Go ahead and delete my profile Mr Moderator

Dear CR001 or someone from the forum participants who are able to give advice in my case. I need your little help.

18 Dec 2018 I was informed on the call centre that the decision on our application was made (they could not say exactly when the decision was made).

It's been 46 days now. Still no news of our passports being ready.
During this time, my case was escalated 3 times, Sheffield tells me that they have some technical problems.

What could all this mean? I don't know what to think. What else can I do?

Thank you
Hi molly,
We are in same boat. Our decision was taken around 5 Jan still waiting. I have contacted MP
and escalated case. If I don’t get a reply I will write a letter to the same address where I have sent the docs. Do have any dependant? Did they request ihs for dependant ?

They take there time in seeming passport back. They made a decision in November for me and sent passport back in January with a refusal
Does it mean refusal ? Ppl getting passport in a week with visa.
I have read your case. You have very strong case for appeal. Sometime they even overturn within weeks of submitting application. You can contact your MP or even contact Sheffield direct on VisaSheffield@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk explaining ur case that you withdrew the application it wasn’t rejected so there is nothing to hide.

So we r appealing now. I really do hope we get an overturn decision very soon. I've waited a whole.year for a decision that's the main thing that upsets me and we sent hide anything don't know why they say we have not been honest wen we were but they don't know about the email we sent so hoping that proof will help us. Plus I have w disabled daughter wish they look at that too

4) WHAT DO I DO ???????????

Its literally the worst thing in my life right now and my wife`s. If anyone can help me with my query i will be really grateful
You have already posted this question twice now and you have been answered twice (once by me)
And I can post it again, there are many other users that may relate to my case and come up with a better answer or new information that i am unaware of, so thanks for your reply and you can carry on counting how many times i post my questions... or not.
So why not make some effort and search for similar topics on this board? This is what I did.

You cannot just keep repeating the same question over and over again. It is against the rules like mentioned before.

Plus you already opened a thread with that question so I advise that you use that thread.
I hate everyone!

Hi Hamzah.

Mine was on the 4th?? so when are mine up
Because they contacted me and my employer
the longer they take to make a decision could this be a bad thing?
im really worried as i'v seen the ones that get approved a couple days after they make contact
I guess i'm just being worried for no reason it's really stressful :(
have they not called u yet?

Hi,

Your 30th working days are up on 15th February. Its friday so if i was you i would give them a call on 18th February. If they say it’s still waiting decision just ask for escalation if possible. I missed a call on Friday, they didn’t to call me today so I’ve been sooo stressed all day. Thinking about it, I dont want to call them just in case yet until 19th February. Don’t worry. You should hear something soon Insha’ALLAH. Keep us posted 😀

Waiting is the most killing thing. Because you can’t plan anything. I have holidays booked from 23rd February i wanted to go pakistan and come back with my husband hoping his visa will be sorted. But i just can’t think of anything at the moment. I wish they had a online system to check the status of application. Rather then calls and emails 😔
