Hi guys!

ALHAMDULILLAH x 1000000 we have been granted visa!

Applied: 15th September 2014 at Mirpur
Concluded emails x 2 with GWF reference in Subject Line: 13th January 2015
Call From Gerrys: 14th Janaury 2015
VISA COLLECTED AND STAMPED: 15th January 2015

Not sure about working days, but exactly 4 months!

Thankyou guys this forum has been helpful throughout the last 4 months and before! I wish everyone the best who is still waiting and congrats to those who have been granted visa!

Alhamdullilah until you do not have the passport you worry and think the worst over and over again. I am a trainee solicitor and applied with 2 jobs did not include P60s, My Orginal Nikah was misplaced so i applied with a certified copy. BUT alhamdullilah despite everythin Allah has been kind and merciful!

IF anyone needs any assistance i will be happy to help, as prior to a successful application you are always worried as to what advise you can give out!

Thanks

Umera

If anyone for Oct from mirpur has heard anything please let us know. As i am aware that islamabad and lahore are already on oct but nothing heard about mirpur applications yet. Looks like mirpur is still on september application. Roughly middle of september.

Its 5 years for spouse visa. 10 years is something else I think.

Thanks! Yes I think mirpur for some reason is slower than others but hopefully you hear something soon! I read on twitter or facebook somewhere that they have cleared all backlogs as of January time and are now back to service standards, so people will hear mostly in 12 weeks!

Best of luck

I don't understand about 2 email theory.. its just myth.. please don't believe on this that.. processed and concluded emails.. why visa officer will give any clue prior getting your passport. with 2 emails... and why gerry's will put visa reference number in the email. when it is very official number... it can be misused.
i just receive one email file is processed with gwfxxxxxxx. and one email from VFS global. rest of the things i believe are stories. 2 emails 3 emails. 3 mints difference email. visa reference number etc bla bla
  • applied online 15/09/2014
    document submitted 25/09/2014
    document forwarded to islmabad 26/09/2014
    check status update 23/12/2014 under process
    check status update 09/01/2015 file processed
    email from bhc islamabad 15/01/2015 file processed
    email from VAC lahore 16/01/2015 to collect document
