Updates from my side.

As my wife applied from karachi vac. The Gerry's VAC centre is open as they said we submit other countries visa applications as well so there is no point for us to close down our office. Well, They are not accepting UK Visa application as soon as they don't get any instructions from british high commision but whoever have their applications in process can get their applications back from gerry's vac office whenever the passport is back.

So i think it applies to every city... may be not :roll:

Hmmm, hoping for monday or tuesday to get a positive reply.

@Smieha,,, Inshah Allah ur hubby will get the visa... plz update us as soon as u get the GOOD News from him :lol:

Hello all ! 28 days restriction,isn't that amazing and laughable,first they take months and months to give you a visa and once they give it then they penalise you for not getting there fast enough !Torture man share torture !

But in my view this 28 days thing has been taken out and replaced with a three months one,dont ask me where, i am sure i read it right here.

Hi again all, abit of info if it helps anyone out there

Me and my wife,went to collect her passport on 29th Sep on Monday (Before Eid). We recieved a call on sturday from gerry's telling us to go to the OLD gerrys office in Islamabad, because the new office was closed.

When we submitted our application at Gerry's back in July (9th), it didnt get to BHC until 16th September, i know this because my wife got a call from the BHC telling her the application has just been recieved, and the fingerprints needed to be re-taken for which the invited her personally to the BHC.

After the case was opened at BHC it took 15 days to grant the visa.

Hope this gives some of you some idea of timescales to expect.

Another thing, When my wife subitted her fingerprint scans agai the staff told her a decision should be given within a week, after 7 working days i visited the BHC personally myself with a british passport and spoke to a member of the visa section, he checked and advised he will help as my ticket was running out. 6 days laer she had her passport, when the visa.

Queries about

Post by faisal892 » Sun Oct 05, 2008 6:42 am

Dear all,

This is my first ever post on this forum, I have some queries please if any body could give their expert advices.

1- I am CA inter which qualification do not qualify to get marks in UK immigration but based on CA inter I got exemptions and took exam of only three papers (without any coaching and classes because CA inter's are not required to attend classes) of "PIPFA" and qualified. PIPFA members are granted 30 marks for qualification by immigration authorities.
My question is that whether based on above scenario whether I would be granted 30 marks for qualification or not?

2- If I qualify for HSMP visa then can I take my mother to UK as well because she is totally dependent on me?

3- Is it wise to first apply for myself and after settling in UK which will take at least a year and then apply for wise, child and mother?

4- How difficult it is to get at least 6.5 bands in IELTS?

Regards

Faisal
