Shortly after calling her, Gerry's rang to inform her also 5 minutes later ! :D We never included wedding photogr...

Just to inform you all that my wifes status chamged this morning to passport ready for collection. I just told my wife to go down to the Gerry's Lahore and tell them that she has been called to collect her passport. She got in and asked for her file. The Gerry's officer said to her you can open the ...

Aaah thanks Petalro, your duas are what I need at this moment. It's so hard being away from your other half. It's been nearly a year since I saw him n now if it is rejected I will have to wait 2 years Can you tell me if my hubby will need to make an appointment or shall I just tell him to go down? ...

Salaam My wife is also waiting she applied in November also. btw have you been to the pakistan uk border agency site it clearly says all pakistan applications are being done in abu dhabi. its gonna delay things cos all applications have to be sent back to the VAC in pakistan. i'm missing my wife lik...

Yeah get a solicitor to write a covering letter for the attention of BHC stating that attached are true copies of entry's from the landy registry and title deeds. Make sure the solicitor mentions your name in the letter that you have instructed this.

All Pakistan applications are now being processed at the BHC in Abu Dhabi as i've been told by Gerry's Lahore Manager by email.

Guys i'm getting really worried now, my hubby applied on 26 nov from isl and we have not heard anything, seeing as everyone else who applied in nov r getting some sort of a response. Also when I emailed bhc about 2 weeks ago they replied app received at bhc on 27 nov and still in process. That has ...

Yeah she's over 21. She emailed the visa section in islamabad and they told her that its been passed onto Abu Dhabi. So they don't know anything else other than it has been sent there.

My wife applied also on 27th Nov from lahore and she got email from Islamabad informing her that her application been sent to Abu Dhabi. Maybe same case with you.

Hi everyone I got a reply today from BHC Islamabad this is what they said.. I refer to your e-mail below. This case appears to have been sent to Abu Dhabi and I am unable to give any information from Islamabad. Please note the following information to contact them directly. So, it seems like our cas...

Just a bit of info for those who are under 21 and applied for marriage visa. I'm hearing from another person who applied in BHC India who's wife was only 20 yrs old but they submitted their application a day before the new law in marriage age rise came into effect. The ECO refused the visa on the ba...

naz08 what email did you send this query to ? My wife never gets any reply.

By the sounds of it the visa has been authorised just as it says. Its been given the all clear for it to be stamped !! This is excellent news ..

If baz901 had applied on the 20th Nov it means we are nearing our turn for our applications to be looked at my wife applied on the 27th Nov from Lahore. To my estimates i'm expecting we hear something by next week the latest.

Don't see the purpose of submitting your driving license. Its not a requirement.

My dad heard as someone was telling him that ISB were receiving a high number of applications especially during the marriage age rise and couldn't cope so they are sending some of the applications overseas to the BHC in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Causing further delays as they have to be sent back to Isla...

OMG guyz i cnt believe it but Gerry's and BHC have more holidays coming up. Dis is wat it now says on da website: "UK VACs will remain closed on Jan 07 & Jan 08 in lieu of Muharrum Holidays" Im gettin so annoyed at the amount of holidays they're takin! At dis rate those of us dat appl...

I emailed the VAC Lahore Duty Manager and I got a reply from him today. He basically said that the application was still in the process stage and once the passport is back they will call my wife for collection.

He re-iterated that settlement applications can take 60 days to process.

I'm hoping too that we hear something from Gerry's this week or next. We applied on the 27th Nov from Lahore.

Hi everyone, My Hubby applied from Islamabad on the 26th Nov and was told that he would get an answer in 15 days, but still no news. I think Islamabad is the worst n slowest vac in pk, as it seems like people applying in karachi n Lahore are getting quicker responses! My heart goes out to you all w...
