hey guys,

Naz: Thanx naz. No, i haven't. I am just waiting and praying for the good news.
One thing i could say for sure about ur hubby's app is that at least his visit to BHC brought his application into their attention. So, inshallah will u difinitely hear something from them soon.

hey guys, i hope u are all fine and doing well. Naz08: i don't entirely believe on what that vicky girl said to ur hubby. i think it is just some exceptional cases where they might have mislaid the application and forgotten to process it. they r a bit disorganised ppl :x :x :? :evil: . To me it does...

Hey guys, Hope you are all coping well. It is so frustrating to wait for such a long time and then they come up with these rediculously large number of holidays. Every other day there is a holiday in the VACs and BHC. For God's sake! 10th of Muharram is one day and they take 2 days off. Such lazy bo...

HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone!
May Almighty Allah make this year a successful and pleasant one for us all, bestow his mercy upon us and start this year for us with loads of good news and with reunion with our spouses inshallah.
Ameen

^^ i dont think they have moved. if they had moved then they would have mentioned it in their website. all it says is if you appeal then send it to abu dhabi office... hiya, i don't know. that is what RiFF said once and also what i have been hearing. Yeh, they have written in their website to send ...

Hi guys, I hope u are all coping well. Regarding waiting time, i should point out that according to BHC the settlement visa processing time is 60 working days. It might take less than that but 60 days is the official target time. The VAC staff tell you the time frame from their own past experience. ...

hello pps,

the tracking system is working again. I think there was a problem at late night on sunday and it has been resolved now.

hey guys, i hope u are all coping well. There is something wrong with the tracking system. When you try to open the page https://www.vfsglobal.org/applicantstatus.aspx It gives this message: Server Error in '/' Application. Runtime Error Description: An application error occurred on the server. The ...

Thank you very much Riff for the info.

I think they are moving to Abu Dhabi, but not too sure.

Hey guys,

Another quick query and concern, there have been some romours that the British Embassy in Islamabad is moving to Dubai. Has anyone heard about this? If so, will it affect our application process time at all?

Thanks Riff. Wow, u seem to know everything, which is something very useful and lucky for us.

Hi guys,

Does anyone know what is the typical time and day for the status to change during a week?

naz08: yeh, my patience is being stretched so much now days. I have not emailed them yet, but inshallah i am going to at the end of this weeks if i don't hear anything from.

Naz08: Yeh, all we could do is wait and pray. The BHC takes only one day off, which should be Monday 8th of Dec, unless the Pak Govt is having their eid on Tue. I don't how long is the Gerry's closed for, during eid, though. I hope they're not taking more than 3 days off. I know how u feel. It is so...

Hey guys,

naz08: Ok, then that is a good reason. Then make sure the content of your email is something powerful and effective in getting them to respond to u. That's all i could suggest.

But i know these guys, they are lazzy asses. lol
They take their time in doing things.

hey guys i sent an email to BHC on friday normally they reply within 3 days but this time i havnt heard anything. this is a good thing or bad. cuz when ever i have sent an email to the BHC they always reply back on the 3 day but this time i have had nothing. Shall i email them again or wait a few d...

Hey guys,

Naz08:No we havent been contacted yet and the website hasn't changed either. We will just wait.

Hi guys,

Congratulations to Susy1 and Ginax! I hope you all have a wonderful life together with ur partners.

thanx Riff. that is what we have done. lets hope for the best. but i think because we already got the visa, they should give us this one quick inshallah, but Almighty Allah knows what will happen. Of course they will. I hope for your sake, you have mentioned the circumstances in the application. Ev...

well I did send a whole album of wedding photos and also my plane ticket and all the photos did have a time stamp on them. I have just been told by my wife she got a call and has got an appointment to go and collect 2moro. Please pray for us all inshallah and I shall do the same for you guys inshal...

hey guys,

I am back to old waiting days now.
wot happens if something very unfortunate happens n u lose ur passport with a uk settlement visa before departing to the UK?

Hey guys, Patience is indeed the virtue. This forum has been a good source of info n a good moral boost while waiting for my application to be processed. Thank you everyone for ur prayers, inshallah all those waiting will soon get the good news. Thank you Naz08 and oahmed. Naz08: She will be coming ...

Thanx naz08 and oahmed. I applied on 18/09 n they gave her a call on Fri n the online status was changed at the same time.
So glad alhamdulillah.
