I am anticipating a Friday or Saturday arrival for the letter. Considering the letter they sent in Jan arrived 2 days after posting so Saturday is a best bet or Monday.

Naila, thanks for the nice words. I didn't know you and Safia are sisters. Inshallah with everyone's dua's and my parent's dua's it should inshallah work out.

I wonder how Zaf's situation is working out, my estimation tells me today is his deadline because he is a day behind me. Hope he can shed some light on his situation.
Shadow 86,

I Hope yours doesnt go to appeal and that by waiting a few days more you are rewarded. I am still waiting as well and its ridiculous the amount of time they make you wait.

Do you mind me asking what yuor reason for rejection was?

Wot the heck is the matter with those ISB VAC ppl, its been 15 days since i lodged my application and my status reads just the same as on first day "application forwaded to ISB OC", any slight possibility that those ppl might skip/forget updating some applicants status ??

Thats just so frustrating..am not up for adventure to drop'em any email questioning status as it seems worthless to me...Allah please bestow us all wid extra patience to hold our grounds strong during this never ending waiting times.

@Shadow:Good luck to you.You are always polite and helpful.May Allah reward you duly.

@Sehrish: Like shadow86 has said repeatedly the only choice you have here is to be patient....take up a temporary hobby or something....do a wazeefa;) I work so that's a good distraction alhamdulillah.Learn how to cook,sew etc.Pardon me if you know these things already,Im only assuming this since I don't know how to do either:P...haha just trying to cheer u up.
Congratulations to all the recent applicants who acquired their visa!:)

Alhamdulilah, My wife picked up her passport today and got her visa approved. The whole process took 8 weeks which I thought was very good.

I wasn't contacted by the BHC nor was my employer. Everything went smoothly :D

Thank you all for your suppprt. I pray to Allah that all those waiting hear good news very soon Inshallah.

Submitted Islamabad 05/04/2011
Under process at BHC: 19/04/2011
Ready for Collection: 08/06/2011
Passport collected = 09/06/2011

fz158, you mean court not appeal, right? :P cause mine is already on appeal lol.

Reason for rejection was two fold.

1. Letter of employment not on headed paper

2. Bank statements didn't show where source of funds was from, well DUH!!! I deposit cash in bank myself so of course name of business won't be there. Safia does the same so she was granted visa alhamdulillah.

Well CRT7, if it goes that way then 2 more weeks so be it. I don't know but I just feel like 'reading' as opposed to 'hearing' the news would seem better. Only time will tell but it's really hard to describe right now why I feel that way. Hence why I am waiting for letter to arrive. If It doesn't arrive by Monday then I will indeed call.

Thanks MojoJojo, I try my best :)

Congratulations naheem :D

Congratulations muj1 :D. Huh you got the visa through a temporary job???? wow! I thought the job had to be permanent :?

That's good news, will leave congrats accordingly on for Monday :P

Now Ali can kind of relax but the anxiety of the results will perhaps get to him.

Now just burn time as much as you can and wish for the weekend to be over with :P.

12 weeks bang on for Ali, whilst 12 weeks and 2 days for samns.

So unless otherwise it was like I had mentioned, next week INSHALLAH!! for MojoJojo and sehrish. From 6, down to 4 applicants left (excluding appeal cases, which seems to be flying in the air doing who knows what?!!!)

May Allah grant you both the visa and for Mojo and sehrish to also receive their responses as well as ss27 and zaara.

Congratulations to those who have received good news! :-)

On Wednesday I received an email from BHC confirming that my application has been processed and I should expect to hear from Gerry's soon.

But no status update so far. I was hoping it would change this morning but maybe not. Can it change over the weekend at all?

Hubby got text message on 2/6/11 saying documents have been dispatched to Dubai for processing. He handed docs in on the 31/05/11.
