No call back since....

Don't worry even if they soton call bak. It wont effect ur case. I heard from alot of people that they got call and they missed it and then they got decision.
Dear Khayrulewara !can u plz tell me how your husband renewed his passport when it got expired and was with embassy.as passport office required orignal passport for renewal .
They will let u know themself. If they r giving him a Visa they will ask for u to renew passport and give bak in. But if they r not giving Visa they wont ask for new passport and just give u ir paperwork bak with refusal.

Thankyou so much for your reply.inshAllah i am sure Allah will help us.do they gave back your husband's expired pasport for its renewal?

wow mashAllah.congrats so yours hardships will finish soon now.happy for u.plz pray for us.we are waiting since 14 months ...

Yes allahamdulillah after a very long wait. And in sha Allah u get urs very soon too
After 14 months i received a call from embassy for biometric again .i dnt know why they are asking for biometric again .do anyone have any idea about this ??

They asked my husband to do his bio again too. They normally do that coz they will give Visa but not too sure. As mine they refused anyway. And coz it has been so long they liked to renew. Hopefully it will b gd news for u.

Yeah but as my passport is expired so manager of embassy told me for renewal of passport first and they will call me again when passort will be back from isb .hope all will be ok soon.

My history: My previous application was refused. I went to Uk on spouse visa but my domestic violence was refused coz I didn’t had police report. I then met my present partner. We put application on basis on relationship which was refused as we didn’t complete 2 years of living together. Which later on went on appeal. I made inland application but was refused. I made voluntary return as home office asked me to put application from India. They accepted my relationship said it’s genuine and they don’t doubt the relationship or income or accommodation but asked me to apply from India. I came back on 7th January and submitted online application on the same day. Before putting this application we completed 4 years of living together now.

Hi Saif123

One can understand your concern and current circumstances. No doubt its hard.

I do have similar situation.. my wife is waiting for me from last 1.5 year after marriage we could just manage to live for 10 days in togetherness and we sacrificed all visits and all needs for future and
Just to pay huge visa fee IHS etc and to get united again.
After providing all documents...... Now waiting over 60 plus working days ...its so hard and demoralising.

They requested additional docs from me on 27 feb and gave deadline of 10 march 19...i sent docs on 08 March 19 twice....after that nothing came out from their end....no acknowledgement ..nothing !!!!

Such experiences are really killing us all. Every minute we check mails and messages to see if there is anything dropping from H.O........kept notification check in mobile on loud which is always on mute normally.

WE CAN ONLY PRAY TO ALMIGHTY FOR GIVING US ALL STRENGTH, ALSO FORQUICK AND POSITIVE DECISION FROM H.O

THANKS.

Hi

Actually,I prepared application pack myself after self study, I attached marriage pics...but due to some reasons i could not prepare WhatsApp material so they precisely requested that and more pictures but not marriage ones and WhatsApp calls conversations.

We normally prefer calling eachother over phone...WhatsApp chatting so I so I took screenshots of call logs from June2017 onwards.. It was even pages, moneygram receipts, Royal mail.. Mailing bag in which gift was sent by my wife and last I took letters of support from my mother and collegues stating genuinely of our relationship.

I hope they have received it and is attached other documents.... Since there was no acknowledgement... From them... And I am really worried.... There are so many horror stories available in this forum.

I pray to Lord... For His
mercy over our applications.

thnx
