In same boat as you. No luck at all. At least provide information that you are booked for next few weeks. I had an email from VFS that said just keep checking every now and than for appointments. No timeline when is the best time to check.

Have you tried booking mobile service?

In same boat as you guys for Lahore center. Last Thursday I had 27th October premium appointment showing up. But I thought I might be able to get something sooner. Unfortunately since Thursday nothing at all showed up. Normal, premium any kind of appointments. Seems like nothing is available. If you...

Thank you. Its just so frustrating being not able to find any appointments at all even for dates further ahead and there is no option to change city.

At this point mobile service seems like the only option. Is it worth paying for it?

Its entierly up to you. But its better to organize everything in few pdf files.

On a different note @seagull is it possible to use IDV app instead if I am not able to find appointment for VFS. I am not really aware how it works and If i can use it for our case?

If you have everything scanned and ordered already it should not take more than an hour. The website is not the most reliable one. But still the process is quiet straight forward

Thank you for your feedback. I will keep trying. Hopefully I will find something starting from Monday tomorrow. What time did you manage to find an appointment? Was it in the afternoon or late at night? My documents are showing up on the individual categories when I click on eye icon. So hopefully e...

Hello, I have been trying to book an appointment with Vfs for last couple of days. But not having any luck at all. Has any one been able to get an appointment in Lahore? Any tips to find one? There phone lines are constantly not working and no reply either from their customer service. Any suggestion...

I have finally reached stage of application. I have paid both IHS and application fee and now I am uploading documents on VFS site. As I am still missing IELTS result, I have not gone further from documents section yet. Can I upload whatever documents I have for now and move to appointment section? ...

Thank you so much both for the feedback

I have just spoken to a solicitor and he adviced that if my spouse visa application is successful she will only receive one month visa to travel to UK and once here she will be issued Brp.

Is this correct as I was not aware of this at all?
