Appeal Allowed Visa Stamped Timings - Pakistan

for those who have been told by UKBA/UKHUB that a decision has been made on their/their wife's case. It happened to me as well. A decision means a decision for them to submit their passport not issue or refuse the visa.

so for avoidance of doubt, when u r told that a decision has been made, it means a decision was made to request the resubmission of passport. thats all

Well another old habit of UKBA and BHC is to tell us about our issued or approved cases in such a doubtful manner that one is never sure untill you recieve ur stamped passport.
I appealed ; 22 dec,
AiT rcvd ;10 jan i guess
case reviewed and visa issued ;28 jan
call letter rcvd ;4 feb

But even in the call letter no where does the Eco say ur visa has been issued. It saz that it was decided to review your case in the light of your new documents so plz submit passport so that the process can be completed. They make sure they dont even hint at anything that might give us the slightest bit of joy...Ridiculous

any one any ideia how long its take passport back after subet with call latter????student depentet cases????plz update.spc if you submet passport last week december are ist weak of jan2010.....thanqs

My wife's dependent visa was refused. that stupid ECO mixed the rule of settlement visa and dependent visa and initially he also didn't give right of appeal.

Later he accepted that he made the mistake and said me to submit the AIT-2 form. he also sent AIT-2 form separately by post to my home address in Lahore.

I sent the AIT-2 form that received to them on 31st jan but till now there is no update. I was thinking it will be quick because ECO accepted that he had made the mistake.

Can any one please tell me how much time it takes after submitting AIT-2 form?

ECO,BHC,Gerrys are all cons. they simply cant communicate clearly or tell the truth. Thanks DulheRaja, I guess i will just have to be patient for now, and let the cons do there job.

BHC is balls.

Cant still see any email posted here about the broken down printing machine???

Hi juba, did u not involve your MP? I heard then it will be quicker.

they do the silly mistakes nd then we ve to suffer tht.

ECO sent me the email last week, apologised for the mistake nd was saying he will re-assess nd will get back to me shortly. now let us see how much long is his shortly.. Can only pray.

the full time line is here and also you can contact AIT on the numbers provided they are very nice guyx www.ait.gov.uk

thanks diablo_vortex2

but my case is not with AIT, it is with ECO in Abu Dhabi. And even I don't think so it will go to AIT because as ECO has admitted that he made the mistake and he also apologized, but to go through a normal procedure he advised me to send him the AIT-2 form to re-assess.

I am sure inshallah he will change his decision at the first stage but not sure how long it will take to pass through stage 1.

hi today my wife recived a call from BHC ,they said you file is incompleate???when my wife said in call lettet you ask 3 thing we provide all three,so what else you want?then he reply and he hold thae phone 3 min and he check file and said yes madam you provide every things according to call letter,i dont understand why office write your file incompleate??and he give my file to officer and said hope fully you recived your passport next week are week after,and if we need any thing we contect you again???i dont know what going on???if some one have same exprence plz shere it.note.ill submet passport 4jan2010,with call letter.

Such stupid things happens in BHC, I think they hired illiterate people from UK in BHC nd these ECO people r those who r begging n the tube stations by playing gitarr.

u r lucky enough, at least they bother to call ur wife nd she cleared every thing otherwise if they send another letter that can be again a long delay.

ny way wish u gud luck.

plz guide me

my last date for joing the college was 1st feb n its gone now, and i didnt recieve my passport back with stamped visa.

now what am i supposed to do ? am i supposed to email embassy new college visa letters ?

BHC is a con, and Gerrys is even worse. Gerrys is run on visa fees. The British low commssion in pakistan are just disgusting. Our case is all clear, all they need to do is stamp our visa and give it back. They are treating are cleared case as a fresh new case and taking there time. Gerrys are all muppets and BLC are wild beggers given a 2nd chance in life.

Sick!

I would complain to the AIT, and ask them how they managed to mix the documents. If your documents are mixed up, then god knows what the judge will be looking at. You should write to the AIT, or give them a call and explain your situation and see what they say.

I wish you all the best, and hope your case is cleard quick.

if you paper is mix up??you nead to seand write bundle to ait and court where your hearing held??? that not big problem but you must complain to AIT and BHC as well regarding you bundle mix up???hope full you case go thrue inshallah

“The unexplained delay in issuance of UK visas to Pakistanis seems to have prompted the UK government to dispatch Miliband to Pakistan in order to defuse the tension between the two states,â€

Can any one suggest me please?

As my wife's application is under administrative review after refused by ECO's silly mistake, ECO admitted the mistake and he said to re-asses the application that he is doing.

So in this situation, Can I apply for visit visa of my parents as fresh applications?

Will it have any effect on re-assessment of my wife's application?
or
will it have any negative effect on new applications?

please Advise me what should I do?

thanks

any advice for me please ?

i think you should wait as they might raise the maintenance issue which is one of their favourite refusals in visit visa and settlement cases.
Keeping chasing the AIt if it is them if you have send the appeal. Otherwise keep mailing all possible UKBA addresses, and fax them regarding the ECO"s error.
I did so for my sons case quoting the ECOs name in each email and correspondence and my decision was turned in a month.
