Was thinking to send a family friend to lahore and ask the office but I don't want to cause an issue.
My friend parents got the visa - both the friends who applied in august and september - for both them it took 30 days after biometrics from the same vfs officeprincessfiona wrote: ↑Thu Oct 14, 2021 4:15 pmYomishu,
ok i have friend who applied on 24th August and he got the visa by 30th September so its taking more then 30 days for now. So i think your friend would have got the visa by now .
Is it visitor visa???

Hi Khurram
By way of an update I received vfs email for my mum only and passport collected today but no email for dad yet and they said we must wait for collection email. They both got first issue email together last Saturday but then dad’s issue email reissued few days ago may be the reason for delay? I hope my dad’s passport will come in next few days as well. I have no idea how they work. Visa granted from the date of first issue email ie last Saturday
We got an email this afternoon saying passport has been dispatched via courier.princessfiona wrote: ↑Fri Oct 15, 2021 7:13 amSomebody else who did biometrics on the same day in Chennai got it yesterday.

3 months minimum. Is acceptable.Exquisit33 wrote: ↑Sun Oct 17, 2021 8:04 pmCongratulations for Visa granted.
Quick question for applicants. How many months Bank statements are required for Visit Visa?
I'm not talking about Sponsor. Only Applicant himself.
Please clarify.
Thank You.
Minimum 3 months is acceptable. As I submitted with my visa application and it is successful by the grace of Almighty Allah.
