Spousal Visa Application - Pakistan

[*Y3NVY*]

Have you emailed them in the first instance? I emailed them on Tuesday, received an auto-reply that my query will be dealt with within 5 working days.

Any one here previously emailed and received a informative response?

I would also like to hear from anyone who has phoned the BHC to see if it is worth doing the same and also who to call?

This waiting is difficult ....

email your local mp and explain what your situation is and that you want there help..i did this yesterday...i emailed my mp at 12.03pm and he got a reply from bhc and forwaded it to my email at 2.57pm!!! i couldnt believe it was that quick myself as when us lot email them they take 4-5 days to reply and the reply does not be worth the wait!!
so i would say email your mp and maybe it will help move things quick for you

You'll get special treatment if you mention Rafiq gave you the number.

Hi do u mind telling us how long the appeal process was for u??
N did u have to go to d court or the ECM overturned the decision for u?

[navie999]

just called them.. they said 1 Lakh 20 k cheapest return £857

That's about right.

It generally is that expensive, if you do a bit more searching, you might be able to bring it down to £800, but I think that'll be tough.

I got a quote for £615 return, direct flight. For my missus it was £315, from islamabad to heathrow.

Hey all

My husband doesn't finish his exams until end of August 2012.

His visa was accepted on the 23rd March.

Does he need to come to the UK in the next 3 months, if he doesn't will it invalidate the visa.

What I was hoping for was that I would not have to apply for a FLR

What do you all advise is the best action ?

I'd say he should travel before the 3months are over , usually classes r done by june so maybe he can travel in the first two weeks of june stay there till a wk or two b4 his exams and leave from here as soon as his exams are finsihed.

hey yes my mp got a much better response than what my husband did when he emailed them.
my mp stressed the fact that my son is growing up without his father and under the family law article 8 he should be here with his family...he then went on and spoke about my anxiety and panic attacks because of all the stress...
they mailed him back saying that they are very sorry for the time it is taking but they do have a 12 weeks processing time, and in cases where there has been a death of a close relative or serious illness they fast track the application. even though this is not the case with Mrs Syed we would like you to re assure her that we are doing everything possible to process her husbands application as soon as possible. Mr and Mrs Syed should hear from us very soon.

i must say that is a better response to what we would of got, so its well worth it getting your mp on there case

Hey Syma thanks for the advice. His exams will be in July and he needs to finalise his project in August.

So I'll try and ask him to come for a while now and then go back for a few months before he returns again permanently in late august
