Yes Venky,...

But if you see the tag lines of BHC... They say "Make visa work for UK"

So as you said... they will not be bothered ... and we are at the receiving end.... :x

guys

Am back..but with serious doubts on my head..

My online status has changed as "Processed application forwarded to OC section on 03 Dec 2007"

i dont know what this means..

I request all to check your online status and update here if you also get similar status?

you have to use ref number which will read "HYDR/031207/XXXX/XX"

All the best guys..

winmano,venkatesh.balakumar

I assume that your status still reads as "Application forwarded to BHC on XXXX date" ...am i right???

This was the status till last saturday..i dont know when this status has changed after that...i called BHC today morn and they said its still under process..

i chekd the status at 12.30 PM today approx and saw this status..

but some doubts are

1) i checked with stevemark who recently got his visa..he said his status was "processed application sent to blue dart courier on 17/01/2008"...but today his status too is changed as "Processed application forwarded to OC section on 17/01/2008"

so my concern is whether the status is something which they are making a standard for all applicaitons or only for some processed ones?

If this is to do with processed ones, then my date is still saying the application date which wrong? :roll:

i am callin VFS & as usual they S**K :lol:

Lion ,

at last you can inform your office today itself , dont wait till tomm for the courier - you can give print of the mail to your immig head at office :D

All,

why is it that BHC after dispaching the passport is revealing the result to some and to others they say they will not disclose the result over call or email ??????
i would rather know the result over email a day before getting the courier and be mentally prepared :?: :!: :idea:
