Is admin review just another term used for appeal?

I sibmitted appeal to BHC for my wife's dependent visa refusal 4 weeks ago but not reply yet.

Thanks. I am also under old HSMP scheme. I submitted my appeal to the BHC in ISB as I thought they will review their initial decision before sending to AIT in UK and if they are satisfied with new evidences thay will themselves over turn their initial decision. I thought this will speed up the proce...

@ laraib

How long your appeal process took? I have submitted appeal to BHC Islamabad for my wife's dependent visa 4 weeks ago. No acknowledgement/reply from them yet. I am wondering if I apply fesh rather waiting not knowing how long this can take.

now they don't call for interview, and make decisions straight away. if u carefully go through these forum before, u must have scecne that marriage photographs are required at the time of family visa. and yes accomodation is also an important issue and it has to be clear. Because these days they ju...

@alishah i like the idea, you tell me how to proceed on this plan. Or if you nave anythingh specific in ur mind. @web2005 why the visa has been rejected. u don't need to show maintanace funds but you must show ur salary slips and bank statement. I'm also going to apply for my wife and daughter. Kin...

What ...

Thanks for advice 1971 - Very useful indeed. I am bit reluctant to make new application for couple of reasons.
