Hi Baz,

All i can say is that if u cant get in contact with them to find out a day or time then just tell ur wife to go down tomorrow in the afternoon and see what they say...it may o may not be a wasted journey i dont think it should be a problem really they shud give her the passport when she goes down if not they' l give her a date and time to come back

If baz901 had applied on the 20th Nov it means we are nearing our turn for our applications to be looked at my wife applied on the 27th Nov from Lahore. To my estimates i'm expecting we hear something by next week the latest.

I suggest you wait 4 working days before telling your other half to go and collect papers if you don’t get the call. We never received the call, although the online status had changed and on the 5th day my missus went without receiving the call she got the papers without any problem.

Guys....VAC's are just like Royal Mail, they are responsible for accepting applications, passing it over to BHC to make a decision, then they will pass the papers back to VAC and then they will contact you to come and collect the papers.

VAC's are in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad and Mirpur whereas BHC (embassy) is the one that makes the decision and they are based in Islamabad - they will be moving soon.

Congrats sskhan for the visa. May Almight Allah grant you a happy future together with ur spouse. :)

Congrats naz, u just got it! That's it, they r telling you that they have given it to you. It couldn't be clearer than that now. :D :D

Congratz baz, at least it is the end of this tiring wait for you.

Maz, u should have just told them that u've got a call eventhough you didn't. It is oright to lie for those kinda buncha twats. they r not gonna find out either. they r just too lazy to go and search for your docs n tell u to come another day.

Guys, plz remember us in your good prayers.

But hey, does anyone know if we applied through ISL VAC then, where do we go to collect our passports? Is it the VAC or the Fedx in ISL Jinnah Market?

Hello everyone,

Congrats to SSKhan & Naz08. Naz08,as most of people said, I agree, it sounds like u have been given a visa and on ur way soon. Naz08, which email address u emailed to? and from where did u apply for visa and in which category? Guys and Gals from pk, can u please post ur reply in my threads as well? u can search them with author name (go2zeeshan2004)...

Also, like to add onething, VAC is responsible for taking applications and giving docs back to u, so u just have to be in touch with VAC.

GOOD LUCK to everyone who have applied (including me) :wink:

Regards,
Regards,

Zeeshan
