I was looking at my husbands passport and notice the following. My husband came to the UK in August, the same month his visa was issued. His actually 2 yr visa expires in this coming November. I know you have to apply 28 days before but am confused. Does he apply before August or November?
My husband has nearly been in this country for 2 years so will be making an application for ILR. I wanted to find out what is involved and what you have to do.
Well to be honest I found that it was indeed the website that helped me. Initially the status was showing the same up until Monday this week. And the funny thing was although I checked the website earlier in the day, there was no change until I checked again at around 9PM that night, when the status...
Thats so true Muzzi. He struggling to get a flight after only having 2 wks left to get to the UK. My hubbys visa was stamped 8th August, 11 days AGO. Thats why he is pushed for time. The VAC werent good at letting him know that his passport was ready. It was only that i checked on the Web that we kn...
Salaam everyone. Wow, so much can happen over 24 hrs. Yesterday at around 3 o'clock i checked the status of hubbys application and no change. Then last night i checked again, and the status had changed to Passport ready for collection. Hubby went down the VAC today in Islamabad, and finally he got t...
I dont like the weekends much, as you know nothing isnt going to happen in regards to hearing anything about the visa's. At least during the week u have some hope of hearing sumthing...............roll on MONDAY!!
Oahmed, ur right, we cant do anything but be strong and wait, but i wish i didnt think too much about it. I know that whats gonna happen WILL happen. The thing is, it is out of our hands - wot can we do, but share our feelings over this forum with others who are in the same boat. Will try to take ur...
Well i doubt any change will happen tomorrow. Independence day tomorrow in Pakistan so i reckon everything will be shut. Ur right Muzzi, you cant help but check the website, thats whats frustrating. So the guy u spoke to reckons they dont take action until 60 days have past, but ppl have been gettin...
I rang the VAC today and guess what....................same answer, call back in 2 to 3 days, surprise surprise. I have cum to the conclusion that the more i ring and check the website and obviously not getting a response the more stressed i am getting. Sigh Sigh!!!!
Same here no change!!! When sumone on this forum got their visa last week who applied round about the same time as us i kind of hoped i would hear sumthing soon...........But nothing. Gonna lose another day on thursday cos of independence day. How much longer????
Thanx for those words Susy1, although i dont think anything is gonna happen today....there is always tomorrow and the day afta and the day afta that............something will happen soon though. Its all this waiting, but just got to stay positive everyone. Its really hard. I didnt realise it would h...
We applied on 20th June.....and it feels like ages ago. Woke up this morning and thought plz let us hear sumthing gud this wk. Inshallah. Checked the status on website and still the same message.....will it ever change i wonder
I managed to call the VAC this morning. Firstly i was told that the application was being processed........... and to keep ringing after 2 to 3 days. This information is the same as whats on the website anyway. Secondly it can take up to 60 WORKING days to get an answer which is about 11 WEEKS. So t...
Muzzi17 when did you apply? Has anyone tried to contact the VAC's in Pakistan from the UK? If so which phone number is worth trying for someone to actually pick up the phone the other end???
When i emailed the VAC, all I got was an automated response. Nothing related directly to our application. CGAME wot is the status of your wifes application? What was the reply of your email?
By the way, do the VAC who dealt with the application contact you to let u know that the passport is ready or not? My hubby cant seem to get thru to anyone over the phone and the website doesnt seem to change either?
Miri congratulations!! That is gud news. At least after all the wait you got a positive outcome. Lets hope those who are waiting also get a gud response. We applied the same week as you so hopefully we shall hear soon...............I hope. Cutesweetgal, you only applied last wk and believe me the wa...
Congratulation Miri. You have got an answer. What the status now means is that you wont know until you get the passport whether a visa has been granted or not. Hopefully your husband will have got the visa, think positive and let us know the outcome. There is hope for us all.........
Salaam all. Yet another week of waiting................and still nothing!! Personally the authorities in Pakistan should provide correct and accurate information. If you are told that it will take 2 to 3 weeks for your application to be processed then give or take a few days thats how long its shoul...
