Hi S4INT,

Yes you are in the waiting game like so many other people. Well i hope you have provided enough proof for them to say you meet the immigration rules and to issue your wife with a visa. Pakistan visa processing is very slow at this moment in time so you gotta hang in there friend.

Thanks.

HI SAINT,

My wife applied on the 2nd june 2 days before you. we got our result on the 7th july. However the visa was refused. Yours is taking a long time for some odd reason maybe they are still considering it. I hope you have some good news in the near future.

Thanks
