Spousal Visa Application - Pakistan

mrsidrees · Post by **mrsidrees** » Sat Jun 18, 2011 6:27 pm

My husband has submitted his settlement paperwork on the 07/06/11. He gave me his receipt no. And also I received an email saying it has been dispatched to the british high embassy also giving me the receipt no. At first I could track it and now for the past 2days it is saying invalid search! I emailed gerrys customer service n they have told me there is no problems with there site. However I know I am not putting anything incorrect info in. So why am I having this problem? Does any1 know? Also on the 03/06/11 my hubbys m8 submitted his paperwork n his partner has received a call asking her a couple of questions does this mean I will get 1 2? Does every1 get 1? If I can have any replys it will be very helpful. Thank you

Thanks ali sher

FaithHill, there's no need to panic and i'll tell you why. 11 July is still far away and there is still plenty of time. Whilst I agree that muj1's was same deadline but he got through, not every application is the same so maybe yours will take a bit longer.

Just hang in there and do not lose hope or patience for that matter. Inshallah you'll get a response soon.

I've been in your situation before, it did pain a little to see others get their results before me but hey I learnt to be more patient and low and behold good news came by without me expecting it.

An advice my wife gave me, the more you run after something the more it'll go further. Let it go and it'll come running to you. So put your mind on to something else and leave this to Allah and I am sure good things will come your way

Yes you can do it and can apply any time.

Remember you need to give evidence to address refusal reasons

otherwise this would be rejected as well.

If you have evidence to address refusal then go for second application.

Salams,

I hope everyone is doing well and keeping strong.

I have a question on behalf of my friend.

His wife got accpeted for the Spouse Visa last week - Alhamdulilah.
However the issue is that the the gender has been incorreclty labelled at Male and it should have been female.

Does anyone have any experience in this and what the possible next steps should be?

Who should he contact and what is the guarntee that his wife will not have problems at Uk border control upon arriving in the UK.

I look forward to your advice.

Jzk,

Is MR Batley still around these days?

muj1 · Post by **muj1** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 1:19 pm

Congratulations Shadow, a long time in the making!

The best way is to look at the potentially longest date eg. 12 weeks. When my wifes app was ready after 8 weeks I was still mentally expecting 2nd week of July so was even happier that it was already ready for colelction. The hardest part is the wait after it's ready until it's confirmed by your spouse whether the visa is stamped or not.

Keep faith, you'll be rewarded.

Good luck.

Muj

Thank you so much @Shadow for those words of encouragement n support.
I really appreciate the Quote u stated, as said by your wife

it really makes sense

Are you the 'sponsor' or its your wife whose sponsoring u? And also which city did u apply from?
MashAllah Allah has really blessed u with great patience and which is why,
Your being rewarded..

Best of Luck.
@
Mr.Muj1 many congrats. Now you better pray for us..

Im also keeping the full 12weeks' time in my mind.
But its true when u get to know of ppl getting their Visas in 8,9 or 11 weeks, it does make you expect early

Dear my call letter took 19 weeks.
but when i got all the information abt the procedure, it took just 2 weeks to get a call letter.

is visa section, abu dhabi dealing with your case.
if yes, then "call them" at 0097 2 6101100 then extension 1, 2, 2237 (extensions to be put on prompt)

visa section probably tell you that they have not recieved the official copy of determination, if this is the case, you need to call POU.

but go for the first step, first

Hi,

I just wondered does the length between the marriage and applying for the visa have any bearing on the decision.

British citizen , Pakistani wife, married back in November 2010, still haven't applied.*

*I did the stupid thing of getting married without a solid job.

saeraj · Post by **saeraj** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 2:37 pm

Help needed from the people who has experience of their own or the friends,

I applied for settlement visa as my wife has ILR.
Application Rejected: June 2010
Appeal Won:2nd Feb 2011
Call Letter Recieved: 14 Jun 2011 (after 19 weeks)
Resubmitted docs: 15 Jun 2011 @ gerrys ISL

I need to ask abt the application status:

1. your visa application has been dispatched to OC (15th June 11)
2. your visa application has been forwarded to the embassy for processing (19th June 11)

someone on the same blog told that normally it takes 14 days to change the status to "2" that is forwarded to embassy.

is it normal?
or is it because i did wait so long for call letter and now they are "compensating" me and processing the visa quickly?

Please share your experience

when i submitted my docs, i asked the gerrys rep that how much time would visa stamping take? he told me for visit visas it takes 15 days and for settlement it could take 4-6 weeks.

i hope to get it real quick, some miracle needed.
