How long do they normally reply back to e-mails in general?
I just asked them an update on my spouse visa application

I received a letter from my MP today
"Thank you for contacting my office.
I have been in touch with the UK Border Agency and they have informed me that your wife was issued a Visa and Call Out letter was sent to her to collect her documents.
I am very pleased to be sending you good news"
I am Just more worried now. I just want to see the visa stamped as that will guarantee my wife got the visa. Lets hope the MP didnt get it wrong.
The wait is driving me crazy. May ALLAH give us all patience. May ALLAH make it easy for every1.

It will ask you to bring your passport, TB certificate and the date that you want to travel to UK, so they can stamp visa. make sure though your TB certificate is valid as some have been refused till they provide valid ones. TB certificate are normally valid for 6 months.
I think the visa will be issued that is why your MP has conveyed this message to you and his glad tidings
Are you saying you submitted passport without any call letter?zmk2 wrote:Salam Batleykhan,
We submitted our passport so why would they send out a call letter, Hope everything is ok. May ALLAH make it easy for every1. We submitted all the documents.

Did you received any call to submit passport?

Gerry's now have a contact number that can be used from the U.K - 0871-7043005.batleykhan wrote:ZMK
You cant contact the BHC in Islamabad.Its shut to public.
If you are inquiring about your passport its at the offices of Gerrys Fedex ( where you handed in your application).
I have just relaised that you wont get a call letter but instead a phone call to say come in and collect your visa and documents as I assume the BHC already has your passport.
You only get a call in letter if you have been refused and were handed all your docs back, but then you appealed and you won your appeal and you have to take your passport back in so they can stamp it.
You should wait a week or 10 days to recieve phone call from Fedex . If not then you can contact them here and enquire about your spouse visa

In near future i am going to apply for my wife settlement visa. I have a question. I live with my parents and they are receiving housing benefit. I am registered with them and the council is deducting money from my parents because i live with them and i have an income. In total the council is deducting £45 a week. Now my question is, can i sponsor my wife whilst living with my parents who are on housing benefit?
I would really appreciate if someone can help me.
Thank you,
You simply need a letter from yours parents that they welcome yours daughter in law to live there and accommodation is acquate.
You also need evidence that yours parents own that house i.e title deeds and title plan.
