It is great news. In Sha Allah, it will be a Yes. Please do let us know when did you get the email to collect the Passport. My wife had her Bio on the 14th of Jan, so, I hope to get the decision email soon.

Yes, I got the same reply and after that, I replied to the same email and asked about the update. Then I got another reply in which they stated that the work has been done on my application.

I would suggest replying to the same email and asking for an update. But, do it on Monday.

I am still waiting for the collection email from VAC Lahore.

Got told on Tuesday that a decision had been made. Bio 10 Jan.

Does anyone know if takes the full 10 working days to get the passport back to the VAC (Lahore)? The waiting is killing me.

So I received this email yesterday. What kind of joke is this? All of the mentioned documents have been successfully submitted when applied in January.


“ The UK Decision Making Centre is currently assessing the application submitted by the above named.

Due to a scanning error we are unable to conclude the application at this time as we require additional information.

• Evidence to demonstrate that you and your sponsor have met in person (you may wish to supply photographs)
• Call/chat records
• UK accommodation evidence
• Sponsors UK residence ID
• Marriage certificate
• Sponsors divorce certificate
• English language evidence
• Valid TB certificate
• Sponsors employment letter
• 6 month’s payslips prior to the application date
• Bank statements showing the corresponding salary deposits

Please send this document as a scanned attachment within 10 working days to Sheffield.SettlementDocsRequested@fco.gov.uk quoting your application reference in the subject line. Please attach the document directly to the email as we are unable to access links to files hosted on sites such as Dropbox™ or Google Drive™. “

Visa Type: Appendix FM Child
Application date: 21 December 2021
Biometric: 30 December 2021 at Kathmandu Nepal

Countless calls, emails - same old generic replies. 110 working days. Apparently 120 working days is not a hard limit but an average so could easily take longer - hopefully not as my wife's entry clearance which initially was on May 2021 lasts until June 26th after a vignette replacement. So if we don't get it by 26th of June, we will have to make a new entry clearance application on her visa which takes another 1 and half month.
Got an update. We collected the passport with entry clearance today (05 July 2022) after getting a SMS/email confirmation on 04 July 2022. I called on 24th June and was told a decision had been made. One unexpected thing was we were asked to pay around £1100.00 IHS fee on the 22nd June for our infant son even though initially the system had told us we were exempt. Paid right away.

Good luck everyone.

Final Update:
Called UKVI on 18 July 2022 and I was told that decision was made on the application on 15 July 2022.
Biometric was on 9 Feb 2022, Islamabad.
Received email on 20 July 2022 from VFS Global to collect passport.
Collected the passport today (21 July 2022), with visa vignette of 3 months, Alhumdulialh.
109 working days
May Allah give good news to all remaining brothers and sister InShaAllah.
