Heyy all

I remember myself , Sophia, Fari and Mayo all applied in mirpur around the same date.

Both mayo and Fri recieved an update today however me and Sophia haven't ??

Bearing in mind I applied 1 day before what does this mean I'm so scared

Gucci can u tell me my email meaning
And anyone else recieved that kind of email if yes plz share

Hey I think your email means that they will be carrying out more checks etc. Iv read a few people who received this email and got an update a week later.
So it shouldn't be long good luck

Hi, we got rejected because they didn't get enough evidence of me and my missus communicating so when appealing we sent over 150 pages of our WhatsApp convo, Updated Skype logs, Facebook messages & a copy of my ticket to Pakistan from January of this year. And yesterday my wife got a phone call saying they will send a letter out which will have a list of things they will need including passport which can only mean one thing really from the research I have done, they have overturned their decision it seems like. It's only been two months of us appealing aswell.

What did you get rejected on?

i know someone who had same prob like u and his wife got overturned last month too and his wife was asked to send passport after 3 or 4 days and she got it back with visa stamped after 10 days so insha Allah u havnet gt long to go .
my case was refused because the last bank statement and wage slip was 34 days older instead of 28 days so instead of asking for additional docs they refused it instead . we have sent the appeal with missing payslip and bank statement hoping to hear gd news soon insha Allah .

Inshallah, hopefully it is straight forward from now on. Ahhh that is annoying, they are really fussy. But it looks like your decision will be overturned inshallah soon aswell. It's not a big deal as long as you have sent the missing docs. Just think positive and hold on for a little white longer.

Wife applied on 09/02/15 asked for a status on 02/03/15 received a reply the same day 'not been assessed by an ECO' was just wondering how far behind is Karachi from other cities in order of forms being processed

[gucci9]

@izainab5

Was this 28 days from the online submission or 28 days older than documents submitted?

Please confirm

[izainab5]

@izainab5

Was this 28 days from the online submission or 28 days older than documents submitted?

Please confirm

it is suppose to be 28 days older from the date of online app but in my case they wrote the submission date so here they were wrong again and we mentioned that in appeal too that they calculate wrong time as it is suppose to be counted from the date of online application not submission .

This applicant AminoAcid88 applied 14th January and he/she has received an email stating that their application has been processed and completed. So I'm assuming with Karachi they're still on January.

Seems like i should have told my wife to travel up to Islamabad or Mirpur lol. Didnt realize it was city dependent.

Just hold on a little while longer. Always worth contacting the tribunal just to see if they have anything new in-case you may have missed something.
