Hey Guyz So this is my story , i applied through a consultant in lahore , his a very good consultant and he helped with getting a CAS and stuff and file preparing and stuff ... Had to get my Certificates Attested from IBC and HEC and then i submitted my file on 26th april and surpringly got interview date on 1st may and went for interview on 3rd may , interview was unusual and weird but fun and so now my question how long will it take to get a response from British Embassy ? When will i get my visa ???

I think British Embassy in Pakistan is running a scheme like "buy one visa & get one visa free for your nieghbore". :p

First thing is that Embassy don't call candidates in weekends like saturday or atleast sunday. Secondly what i know is that IELTS usually conducts by two bodies, first is british council and second is AEO. even i dont about topaz. any ways i wish you'll get visa soon.

Read Somewhere else :
Oh dear, don’t worry about it. Visa is issued to students of both A and B rating colleges. A & B rating colleges are both UKBA registered sponsors. Just go ahead. Wish you all the best. If you have further queries, don’t hesitate to ask.

Last year rule was announced that B or A rated colleges needs to convert themselves to Highly Trusted or else they gets shutdown. There are tons of students in UK who had taken admission in A rating and after that college got close. So beware of it, i just dont know through which agent you had applied because agents never let student know reality.


Wish you good luck ..
