Spousal Visa Application - Pakistan (Timeline Only)

[stillwaiting123]

What if I get a letter from the employer saying he has paid me the wage that was under in April & that I have paid back the over payment of total 40p back to the employer?

Will this be ok?

I'm not too sure but I think it would be okay as long as your employer verified it but then again they may want proof

And regards to your 2nd question

The first £16,000 of savings are not considered and the spouse visa is for 2.5 years

So your shortfall is £5,100 x 2.5 = £12,750 + £16,000= £28,750 so u need that in savings

Thank you for ur help.

Your welcome, anytime sis

Hi,

I have been a silent reader on this forum for a while and am now starting to get paperwork together in order to submit my husbands application. I was under the impression he would be able to get his TB test done from any hospital/doctors but seems like it has to be from a uk approved centre.

Does anyone know of the telephone number/ email address to book the test? Also is there a centre in mirpur and what would my husband need to take with him on his appointment?

Thank you

Yes u can say they r cash gifts but make sure u declare who gave u etc and say some is personal savings and some from wages

And most of all, the money must remain in lishah121's bank account untouched for at least 6 months. If the amount goes down by even a penny, the application will fail.

[Mrs.Fakhar]

which VAC did u apply from?

From Mirpur Bruv

According to uk.gov for visa processing time Lahore is slowest with only 57% applications for settlement decided in 12 weeks, whereas Islamabad, Mirpur and Karachi were much quicker with above 70% applications decided within 12 weeks. That was for June hope they have picked up some pace in July.

Let's hope and pray we all get the good news we await so badly.

Remember me in your Dua's

Online application 10th may 2015
Biometric and docs 13th may 2015

The money has to be in your account and you need to provide proof of where the money came from and how.

To be honest I think you should be hearing something very soon. You said 1st may right.... So your 12 weeks are already over infact 13 weeks I guess.

The processing time I posted was for June only and doesn't mean your file will definitely be delayed. I hope you hear a fab news soon.
