Interview and Finger Prints at ISB

Hi all,

After 9 weeks, my wife has been called for an Interview/fingerprints at the Islamabad embassy.

As she prepares for this, are there any tips you can share on making things go as smooth as possible ?

She'll take copies of the application form and supporting documentation.

Do you think they would issue the visa on the same day ?

Thanks in advance.

i don't know about others but my issue was issued on the same day though they don;t tell you that.. i suppose if there is no need to refer to the home office they give you the visa straight away

Cheers

Hi, can someone tell me if youre sent a letter a week before your fingerscans are due, to ask you to come in?

My husbands application is in week 10 now, and so I would be expecting him to have his fingerscans next week, but he hasnt got a letter yet or a phone call asking him to come in.

Would it be wise to wait, or should we get in conrtact with them about it?

In week 10, my wife has just had her "interview" and finger print scan. The interview was simply a few questions ( date of birth, name, address) during the scan.

My nephew who recently applied had his fingerprints done at ISB one week after he applied for visa.

Also someone says you can find out the progress of an application by typing your passport number on Gerry Fedex Visa website. Is this true?

well to tell u the truth it doesnt really work cuz the fedex ppl hardly ever update the website so even after you get the visa the site says 'your appliction is currently under process'

My wife got a call 3 days later from gerrys to collect the passport...

But, to our shock when she went to collect the passport, the visa was refused because the embassy could not see the divorce certificate from my previous marriage in the uk. We did sent my decree absolute, and this was in the original application forms and documentation which was also returned.

Now we have to appeal within 28 days...any advice ?

Get the appeal form in as soon as possible, and also send a fax or e-mail to the consulate, pointing out their error. Did you send the original?

I have called the embassy in islamabad, and emailed them stating that an atested copy of the decree absoute was sent with the orginal visa application..I also sent them a scanned in copy of the absolute.

They have ignored the email and said you have to appeal within 28 days.

They seem to think that my marriage in polygamous !!!

What supporting documentation do we need to send with the appeal form ?
