Spousal Visa Application - Pakistan (Timeline Only)

[sami3]

Hey i gave all the evidence to show my gross income but still they went off the lowest wage slip... Its like they ignore other evidence

i can feel the agony and pain that you went through sis. But stay strong. Allah has better plans for you inshALLAH. You know that you have tried your best. It wasn't meant to happen. Atleast you won't regret in your life.

Look at me sis, i am earning over 32k a year, everything is complete and genuine but still waiting over 7 months now.

I just called them and they said that they will escalate my case which they been saying from last two months.

Stay Blessed

mp just called the office here for me, they said on their system there is some sort of activity going on with my case but they cannot see exactly what so she has requested Islamabad to tell her, who should do within 10 days.
she started saying if its not done u should consider reapplying rather than appeal etc which has just set me off in depression mode. going to ask HMRC for my tax records and c if its worthwhile sending them off

[Ket1]

guys if anyone wants to read anything specific to ask Allah to make there wish come true and avoid calamity u should read durood tanjeena and surah nuh, both are ment to b powerful.

Also, are you self employed?

Hello guys I'm new to this post, what are processing times lately?
This is my timeline:

Submitted Application: May 2012
Application refused: October 2012
Appealed: November 2012
Appeal rejected: August 2013
Fresh application submitted: 23rd July 2014
RFC: waiting..


don't know wether there would be different processing times for applications that have been rejected before

[ALWAYSHOPE]

lol lucky u

I at the start submitted 14

tgen asked for more documents and I have in total submitted 18 still they rejected extra documents cksiming I earn 14k n not 20 k

With hmrc I have clearly paid tax for 20k

they jyst tring to meet their refusal target nothing else

Lol i was lucky this time, but very unlucky with my last application. The whole system is unfair. What you just said now i was saying to others on forum when my husband didnt win his appeal on his first application.

Dont give up hope. I know there are times when you might feel low and compare your applications to others (i did the same), keep praying and Allah will answer your prayers. I hope your next application is successful. If you need any help please ask now because i will be leaving this forum soon.

[ALWAYSHOPE]

Thank u fr ur kind words... We were settled nd happy before but to plz my family i decided to apply it was a complete mistake and i understand what u mean about reapplying.. But im thanking allah for what he has given us.. Although i would have been happy to live in uk my home country im thinking maybe this wasnt in our kismet my hubby never wanted to come to uk and i kind of forced to him apply we made te decision a long time ago that we will settle back to how we were and i am now preparing to do so...

Im sure you know whats best for you and your husband. I just want to wish you all the best

[th3]

Salaam everyone
Sorry for the late response, my husband went to collect passport today and they were very uncooperative.. Firstly my husband was refused because of financial requirements and that they did not rcv additional documents which is clearly a lie stating they acknowledged them my husband asked for the return of these documents they stated they dont have them.. They told him they were returning passport wothout any reason it wasnt until he got home he seen the refusal... Me nd my husband r grateful to allah for this decision alhumdullilah settling in uk wasnt in our kismet.. Nd weve realised allah does everythinh for the best cus he has better plans for us.. I am thankful to allah that he has given us priveledges in life to both me and my in laws.. In two weeks i will b leaving the uk and emigrating this is how i lived before. I applied for uk visa to b close to my family even though my spouse objected. Once again i am grateful to ALLAH for guiding me onto the right step without him we would have nothing.. Jazakallah to everyone for ur support we will not be appealing or reapplying we made the biggest mistake applying in the first place and wasting two years but it meant to be i am praying for u all

Wassalam

Don't worry sis, I'll soon start helping genuine people get into UK. I've had enough of this system. I had the means to do it all, but played by the book and honesty. But honesty isn't being respected here, it's being punished, and justice not meted out.

I travel to PK every 3 months - which area do you live in?

[blumango]

is the ukvi service another part of this whole joke system?

this morning they email saying your application is under process and be patient.

5 hours later they say:

Thank you for contacting the UK Visas and Immigration international enquiry
service.

We understand you have been waiting for long and apologise for any
inconveniences. Currently the majority of settlement visa applications were
on hold and waiting for a response. In your case, "Application is on hold
for further queries".

[sumeensaleem]

Seems like everyone who applied in Mirpur has no sort of movement in their cases.
Everyone else has had some sort of communication like RFC's or RFI's.

Our cases are just on standby

[freddy786]

in my experience u should email at their old email address,they wil reply after 10 days but reply wil be presice,
