Hi all

All first time applications have not heard this week either a very dull week for us. I do think we will all hear very soon inshallah keep the duas all the time everyone.

I do however feel that all those applicants who have passed there 60 working days should all contact the abu dhabi embassy by phone or email and discuss the outcomes of the reply on the forum. :wink:

Quick question,

When u have to submit your passport after an overturned appeal is is normal for them to ask for the sponsors passport photocopy also...?

Plus, when I applied, the passport copy that I gave was different to my current passport because I lost it and got it replaced .. Am I better off sending old passport photocopy and new ones with a letter explaining or....??? I just don't want them to make an excuse and prolong the process..!

Any help would be appreciated.. x

If processing times were like last year sep-Nov then surely we would have got replies within a month.

I think currently all cases will get responses between 8-12 weeks and no eariler.

i didnt mean that but the cases which are not straight forward i think they send to abu dhabi!! doesnt mean anything negative!! its best they get everything checked before they make a decision even if they have to double check!! dnt stress sorry i didnt mean it that way!! probably just giving myself some hope :?
