MashAllah, a wave of good news coming in. I am so happy to hear that many of you have been granted success. You see guys, you must keep faith in Allah SAWT and stay positive. As I have said before, Allah SAWT becomes very angry if we start thinking negatively. If you pray to and believe in Allah, th...
All of my payslips are electronic and were printed on plain white paper. It is nothing fancy, just a couple of boxes with pay and employee details (NI number, tax code etc). I didn't even submit my P60 because I submitted the application before April. However, I did request tax code notifications fr...
I submitted online payslips (just a print out, not notarized etc.), and alhamdulillah my wife was granted a settlement visa recently. As long as all the information conforms with eachother (there are no discrepancies), then insha Allah there shouldn't be an issue. Does your online payslip provide al...
Please don;t feel down. Always look on the positive side of things, as Allah SAWT becomes very angry if you only concentrate on the negative. If you think negative, only bad things will happen.
Have a safe journey. Please let us know when you arrive safely. Also, forget all your tensions and worries. Just concentrate on having a great time with your wife.
Ali bhai, Please do not be worried. It's easy to say that, having been through the exact same process. You can't help but worry at times. However, keep faith and stay calm. InshAllah you will get the good news very soon. To be honest, even though you have only provided Lyca mobile cards as proof of ...
Just an update after having a conversation with my parents. We will be looking to invite my wife over in 3.5 weeks. The reason being that we want to hold the Walima on 1st July, since it is a Friday. It also gives us time to sort out the wedding invitations and hall etc. This is what we submitted fo...
Thanks everyone for the best wishes and congrats. May Allah SAWT reward you all by granting you your visas. AMEEN. Submit, The appointment to submit is usally two weeks after you have asked for it. However, I would strongly urge you to use the VIP service, as yu will then be able to submit the appli...
All praise be to Allah SAWT. Allah SAWT has granted our wishes. My wife got her passport back today, with settlement visa STAMPED :) I am so incredubly grateful to everyone on this board. Throughout this testing time, you have been like a family to me. I could turn to you during times of doubt and w...
Hi guys, I hope everyone is well. My wife is on the way to Lahore as I write this. This is such a nerve racking moment. I know I should stay calm and have faith in Allah SAWT, but the fact that it has only been 45 working days since my wife submitted application is bugging me a bit. A lot of people ...
Thanks Ali bhai for your best wishes. InshAllah you will the good news very soon. I will be praying for my fellow brothers and sisters, especially those who are in very difficult circumstances. Allah has granted my prayers by giving you your visas, and InshAllah He will continue to do so. May Allah ...
No need for an appointment. Just take your receipt etc. for your application with you, and your ID card just to be on the safe side (the Gerry's staff can be stupid sometimes).
Oh, gosh. My wife's passport status has just changed today on the tracking website. It says: "Your application is ready for collection; please visit the UK Visa Application Centre where you submitted your visa application to collect the same 06/02/2011" My expected 12 weeks is 20 June. I d...
The ECO will only want to verify if you work for the company. They are not interested in where you are the moment they have established contact with your employer because that is not relevant to the application. But yes, life is way too short to worry about things like this. There is no use thinking...
Personally, I believe that taking unpaid leave shouldn't be a problem. It always possible to obtain confirmation from the company about the unpaid leave and to supply this to the ECO. Every now and then, we all take unpaid leave due to large planned events (I took unpaid leave for my marriage in Pak...
God forbid that there is a refusal (inshAllah it will be a positive outcome), I thought you only have to provide further evidence pertaining only to the refusal reasons.
Thanks for your reply to my question Ali bhai. I was just curious. For every application, they do not necessarily contact the sponsor, employer or applicant. Let's keep our chins up. The good news for us all will be here soon inshAllah
Don't worry brother. InshAllah we will all get the good news soon. There are anlot of people who have supplied minimal amount of evidence and successfully obtained their visas subsequently. I would not be worried. It's all down to our kismat. Keep faith in Allah SAWT. I will be praying for you all. ...
Guys, the ECO dont contact HMRC, had they have contacted HMRC in my case they wouldnt have refused my husbands visa cos HMRC would have confirmed that I was employed similar with my brothers case, if the ECO had contacted HMRC his self employment would have been confirmed the burden of proof is upo...
Right, that makes a hell of a difference. If you're taking 6 weeks of unpaid leave, you will not be paying tax. But the fact that you are taking unpaid leave will be relayed to HMRC. The organisation will (should) confirm you are still working for the company. The problem comes when the HMRC confirm...
Anjum How can it affect your application? The fact that you are going back to visit your wife goes to show how much you love her. In the mind of the ECO, this will appear to be a subsisting relationship. Are you self employed? Could you clarify on the tax issue. If you are working for an organisatio...
A fresh application can take up to 12 weeks, even longer in some cases. I'm a bit confused. You say you with family, and that you submitted the land registry deeds (which I assume are in your parents' names), yet in item 3 you state you submitted copies of your own property? Argh, I think work is ge...
