ImranOne needs to be congratualted on one more thing
He is the first applicant whose status did not forward to BHC to not be rejected a visa
All 4-5 before him who were not forwarded to BHC were rejected
A virtual Ladoo from me!

The visa was stamped on the passport on 16/12/10 so it took a week to get back to gerrys.

Hey guys, appeal is all sent off...bt ive started to wonder weather it would be quicker and easyer to just submitt a new application?? as you know they only refused it on such a small thing so we have a possibility of it being over turned, but we have no way of finding out how long that could take...i can'not wait 9 months to be with my hubby again no way...anyone got any advise for me? My solicitor told me that our appeal should definatly be accepted...so wouldnt it be better to submitt a new one instead of going through appeal hasstle? Oh and many congats to everyone whos got there visa really happy for you all

calling letter 21/06/2011
forwarded to brittish embessy 27/06/11
Under process at BHC 11/07/11

Dear Sir,
Thank you for your email. All settlement applications are lodged in Pakistan and processed in the UK. I have checked on the status of your application and can confirm that your application has been processed.
The VAC will be contacting you shortly when your paperwork is ready for collection. Please do not contact them direct as this may cause a delay to all applications.
Regards

Keep checking the tracking website, the VAC don't always contact you. My wife was not contacted at all. The only way she found out the paperwork was ready for collection was through the tracking website. When your paperwork is ready for collection you do not need to contact gerrys to arrange a time for collection, just get there before 2pm local time and make sure to take your reciept and strips with you. (just for info if they ask have you been contacted via txt or fone say yes even if u have not otherwise they wont even look at your reciept, once they input the reciept they give you a token and the wait begins).
Hope this info helps.

Salaam everyone
I have applied for my husbands visa on the 28/10/10 from lahore and today my hubby received a txt saying that his passport was ready for collection. We now have to wait 5 days till we find out. Please can everyone do dua that my husband gets his visa am so worried about it.
I also wanted to ask my employer was contacted last week but they spoke to my boss's son who told them to call my boss at a later time but on the tracking it never changed to employer contacted and as far as i know they did not contact my boss after that. is this something to worry about?
any help would be appreciated
thanks
I do dua that allah swt helps everyone with their visa's.
