Spouse Visa Query

Post by DNA » Sat Oct 09, 2010 9:40 am

AoA to Evri 1 here in this Forum..!!

I appLied fr my settLement visa on 12th JuLy 2010, N by Looking at tha statisitics, on average, BHC mostly contacts the employer exactly in the 12th week or after completion of 12th week N decision is then made roughLy after a week or so after contact with employer.

My 12th weeks elapsed on 4Th october, 2010 but so far they did not contact the employer, I am hoping to get the final reply in second week
of october cus on 15th of this month, 14 weeks will be over.

Though everything is planned by ALLah cus ALLah is the best planner
and He never lets his supreme creature down. So i can hope fr the best possibLe outcome very soon inshaLLah ...!!

Hi Yasmin

Why dont you email the UKBA on the below email address, as most likely your application has been processed. My husband applied a few days before you on the th of 25th June in Mirpur and once 14 weeks passed i emailed them to find out ths status and was advised the application was processed on the 6th of Sept, took about 8/9 weeks to make decision, although my husband is still waiting for call/text to pick up passport.

email address:
ukhub.pakistansettlementenquiriesandcomplaints@fco.gov.uk

Also has your employer been contacted?

I know it's very stressful and worrying but the best thing you can do is make dua coz at the end of the day everything is in Allah's hands.

Let us know how you get on :)

Hi Shazaz

I reckon your application will get processed before you start your new job, so they will contact your current employer if they do.

Why don't you email them once your 12 weeks are over to check on the status as it may get processed by then. Email them and see what they say. Goodluck

My initial visa application was refused due to insufficient information being provided, i provided this extra information and was told that the whole process would take around 10-12 months.
Therefore i submitted a new application on the 29th June to speed up the process.
It has now been 3 months since the visa application was submitted and i have heard nothing.

I don't know what to do!!

This is soo stressful...
Hi Riz

Your are right it is very stressful but have faith and inshallah you will hear good news soon. Have you tried emailing them, as it is most likely they have made a decision on your application, as my husband applied for his Visa on the 25th of June and on the 14th week i emailed them and they said a decision was made on the 6th of September, well over a month ago! Although we are still waiting to find out when we can pick up the passport.

Email them on the below address, and provide them with your details and if it has been processed they will be able to tell you.

ukhub.pakistansettlementenquiriesandcomplaints@fco.gov.uk.

Good luck and inshallah it will be good news :)

Salaam to all

just to say that I have arrived back safely from my trip to Pakistan a few days ago. still trying to recover as most of you know everything becomes doubly hard to do in Paksitan.

In total I collected over £62000 myself along with my other two friends who collected a similar amaount, so in total we raised over £123,500.

We visited the north area of pakistan to distribute the funds to help people finacially, to rebuild their houses, distribute food packages, pay for medication and treatment of a number of serverly ill children, pay widows and orphans extra amounts of money because of their desperate needs.

In total we distributed a total over 50 lakh rupees to some 2000 people. This was after making exhaustive enquries and inspections of their damage to ensure that they were legitimate victims and that they were entitled to recieve zakat.

The rest of the money will be distributed to people in Punjab and Sindh when I go back again in 2 months time.

I will do a full report and along with videos and photos of our aid mission and hope to include it in my facebook homepage.

I would like to thank all those that donated to thios worthy cause and pray that. Allah reward you for your thoughts and remembrance of fellow Muslim brothers and sisters.

It will be some few days before I start to respond to peoples inquiries here, so please bear with me.

Congratulation to all those who have had their visas issued

Ayub

Hi Yasmin

I heard someone say on here that they rang him at home, though i can't remember who it was! I do beleive that is quite rare and they contact the employer more, but again not everyones employer, they didn't contact mine. It depends on the type of company you work for i guess, but majority of employers do get contacted.

Best thing you can do is email them atleast you will know whether they have made a decision or not, they most likely have by now.

Inshallah i hope we hear some good news soon, this waiting is so hard - lol

Masha Allah, you have done a great job. May Allah be pleased with you, bless and you and your family (Ameen). It must have been very hard, although a remarkable trip. All those brothers and sisters whom you have helped, may Allah help them build there lives.

Its good to have you back safe and sound. Keep up the hard work and may Allah Bless you and reward you highly.

Where ever your file is submitted its sent to Islamabad, They send file there and then its looked at by British High Commissions. Meaning its getting looked at.

All the best
