Does anyone know when you can apply for another tourist visa again after a successful one?

Thanks.

I believe they ask for 15 days from the first Escalation call. But please ask them again.

Congratulations Sam. Well done for escalating it.

Have a lovely flight and hope you have a wonderful trip.

Take care.

Lol yeah they took 3 weeks to send it back!! Actually visa is 5 months haha

No worries. It was the reason I started the forum as so many were in this position.

Glad you have it and have a lovely flight and trip inshallah.

Congratulations. What was the issue date on your visa? I believe it to be 19th?

Hopefully soon. How many days did the UKVI say?

18th.
From Rasool Park.
Where about you in lahore?

Yes.

My passport was ready but for some reason took them a long time to give it back.

Thank you.

You need to do this ASAP to escalate it.

I contacted UKVI by phone and they have escalated the issue.

I suggest you do the same as they were suprised as to why I haven't received the passport back yet.

Regards

They responded by saying that a decision has not been made?!

I replied to say that I have recieved a Visa Email stating the visa application has been issued.

Waiting for their email. What a joke.

My advise is to please send an email with your reference number. Email of issue and receipt when you submitted your passport and ask them where is your passport.

Hi.
Yes no email or text yet from anyone.
Any luck with you?

I think if we contact the UK visa people they will just advise us to wait to be honest. Obviously there is a back log due to red list so they have an excuse.

Hopefully soon.

Take care.

6 months for everyone.

So they ate 14 days!!
Thanks for reply and congrats again.

Thank you.
Also was your visa start date from the issued email?
