Thank you very much :)

Can you please explain what the self assessment statement , NI contribution from HMRC are??
and Wat is included in the accountans letter ?

(I did not include this )

Thanks again

Sorry for late reply been busy with work.
Self assessment statement is what you receive from HMRC and it shows what you owe them in taxes it only apply to non employment incomes. I sent last 2 years of statements.

HMRC national insurance contributions letter, shows amount you should pay in N.I Contributions and is direct debit from my account on a monthly basis
I.e i only pay £2.50 a week and £10 a month on rental income.

I pay double taxes one on employment and other on income from rental properties.

I got a letter from my accountant stating that he does my accounts on 2 properties since last 8 years, also he's give me a character reference as well.

Wife receive a call from Islamabad this evening to pick her passport up tomorrow morning.
In sha Allah hope all goes well.

Online application: 18/02/15
Application submitted: 24/02/15 in Islamabad
Thanks

Assalamu alaikum everyone!
Just to let you guys know that my wife when to collect her passport today and Alhamdulillah she's got her visa!
It only took 3 weeks brothers and sisters who are applying please make sure your 100% satisfied before submitting your applications.
People who have applied please have sabbar coz I predicted 12 weeks and my mum had taken my papers to Pakistan and I booked her returned tickets at the end of May and now mum and the Mrs booking early tickets for next week.
Anyone who have been refused don't give up! Either appeal for it or apply again whatever makes you happy.

I haven't been on this forum for long but if I upset or embarrassed anyone or given false information please forgive.
Good luck!

Hello i recieved this email today what it mean can anyone explain plz?

Your UK visa application is currently under consideration at the British High Commission in Islamabad.
Unfortunately, the processing of your application has been delayed while we undertake further checks. This means that we will be unable to make a decision within our published customer service standards.

We will conclude your case as soon as possible and we will email you when your documents have been returned to the Visa Application Centre. You will then be contacted again when your documents are ready for collection. Please do not go to the Visa Application Centre before you have been advised to do so.

We apologise for this delay. Please avoid making any travel arrangements until you have collected your passport.

We would be grateful if you could keep your correspondence to a minimum during the consideration process of your application. If however you need to contact us or would like to track the progress of your case, you can do so via our International Enquiry Service at: www.gov.uk/contact-ukvi-outside-uk.

Kind regards,

UK Visas and Immigration
